What happened after Man v. Food?
On his search for Newport, Rhode Island's best food, host Casey Webb stopped at this Broadway breakfast-and-lunch spot to sample its chicken-and-waffles sandwich, according to the episode synopsis on Wikipedia's Man v. Food season 10 page. The dish stacked a deep-fried boneless chicken breast, shredded sharp cheddar and a maple-mustard sauce between two homemade Belgian waffles in place of bread. Scratch Kitchen & Catering runs out of a storefront on Broadway in Newport, serving breakfast and lunch daily and offering full-service event catering, according to the business's own website.
The restaurant describes itself as a from-scratch kitchen built around house-made soups, gourmet grilled cheese and stuffed French toast rather than pre-made ingredients. The Broadway stop was the first of two Newport locations Webb visited in the episode, the other being The Hungry Monkey a few doors down.
