Chicken and Waffle on the same plate?? (Lola's chicken & waffle in Phoenix)

Is this just me being a foreigner that have never spend time in the South? Or is this something 'different'?

Check out the picture bellow 

How are you suppose to eat this? A friend jokingly suggested that I should cut the chicken into pieces and place it on the waffle, pour the maple syrup on the chicken and eat the whole thing like a chicken sandwich. Yuck? Yummy?

Well, that's not how I ate in anyways...I ate them separately. As for most fried chicken, this fried chicken is good. Crunchy outside, juicy inside. The waffle (there were two pieces actually)? eh..just a waffle. Never had Clinton Street Bakery Waffle, suppose to be amazing. Really?

Washed everything down with Southern sweet tea. This is for Sarah Davis...really that much different from McD's sweet tea? I can't tell. To me, it is tea with lots of sugar.
