ATLVault: Scattered, smothered and covered | First Waffle House opens, 68 years ago

  • Resumen

  • On Sept. 5, 1955, two Atlanta businessmen - Joe Rogers and Tom Forkner - opened the very first Waffle House, located in DeKalb County's Avondale Estates community. Rogers started in the restaurant business as a short-order cook in 1947
    at the Toddle House in Connecticut.
    By 1949, he was a regional manager, then moved to Atlanta. He met Forkner
    while buying a house from him in Avondale Estates.
    Today, Waffle House has more than 1,900 locations in 25 states.
    Njeri Boss, vice president of public relations, and Virginia Angles, curator of the Waffle House museum, talk about this national iconic culinary brand.
