The juicy all-beef patty packs a flavorful punch, intensified even more with the crunchy bacon, cheese, and sunny side-up, with all the flavors absorbed by the soft and lightly crisp Belgian waffle for another perfect finish. It's a burger with the IHOP spin for a refreshing new take on the usual burger. Another personal favorite.
