The Belgian Pavilion at the 1964-1965 World Fair in New York featured Belgian waffles as a national dish. I coveted the ones served with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. So I guess the Belgians thought of them as theirs. That any help? I particularly loved the Irish Pavilion for the coffee on cool days and the Indian Pavilion for the great food -- my first intro to real curry! And I made a good friend there. Returned to Fair in '65 and it was even better. Aloha, wow
