AERIAL TOWER RIDE AND
WAFFLE RESTAURANT

Food on land and gaily colored gondolas in the sky are the twin features of a typically European eat-and-ride attraction. The outdoor restaurant specializes in Bel-Gem Waffles - waffles served with combinations of powdered sugar, whipped cream and fresh strawberries. Beside the restaurant area four elegantly upholstered gondolas, each with a capacity of 15, majestically rise on cables to the top of a 120-foot tower. The smooth, slow ride provides a magnificent view of the Fair and lasts three to five minutes.

* Admission to ride: adults, $1.00; children under 12, 50 cents.

* Hours: 10 a.m. to 2 a.m.

AERIAL TOWER RIDE AND BEL-GEM WAFFLE RESTAURANT

An outdoor snack bar sells special waffles, and gondolas give rides to the top of a tower.

The taste treat here is a deluxe Belgian-type waffle served with powdered sugar, whipped cream and fresh strawberries. Four gondolas, each seating 15 people, rise to the top of a 120-foot tower for views of the Fair.
