I don't think I understand the code here - the message I get is 'nasty' - maybe it is that simple. What does the waffle represent?

Is she eating the waffle or throwing it up?

they have a hen & waffle on their menu, so i assume the "hen and waffle" is promoting their late night menu, 1am to 4am, i think its really cool, artsy, edgey and creative - i like it.

This is what someone in Boston thinks the East Village is like. Ha! Joke's on you! It's full of uninspiring 20 year olds decked out in beige trying to be as homogenized as possible!

Actually, I really like the work of the guy who did this photo, Mel Cole. Check out his website; his stuff is pretty legit.
