Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Spotted Eating Chicken and Waffles at Melba’s

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex — who were in town for the Global Citizen Live event at Central Park over the weekend — made time to swing by Harlem institution Melba’s for lunch on Friday.

On Instagram, restaurateur Melba Wilson said that hosting the couple was “a dream come true,” and it appears that Prince Harry and Meghan felt the same way. A diner at the restaurant told Page Six that the couple ate chicken and waffles, spring rolls, and catfish, among other dishes. The lunch at Melba’s was reportedly the first time that Harry has ever eaten chicken and waffles. “They were super nice to other customers and were overheard raving about the food,” a representative for the restaurant tells Eater.

Before leaving the premises, Prince Harry and Meghan told Wilson that they planned to donate $25,000 to the iconic restaurant to help support its pandemic recovery.
