No more loading and unloading for Cristina Angelo and Kristopher Harvey of longtime pop-up Waffletina. They have a Park Place home of their own with a first-floor café, Mea Culpa, whose sleek modern style contrasts strikingly against its Rockwellian exterior (white picket fence, wraparound porch).
Along with their beloved Belgian-style waffles, they offer pastries, salads and Three Ships Coffee to start plus mimosa brunches and special dinners to come.
2410 Colonial Ave., Norfolk.
