Man did we hijack this thread. The good news is the original post is from June 2018, and I'm pretty sure the op has had his first service by now.
"I'll have some hot buttered grits to go with that first service."
Ooooo, yeah baby!
(Did I say we don't get grits in Canada?)

I call them onion balls
grits are an acquired taste. Like beer or alcohol. I ended up liking grits, but never acquired the taste for beer or alcohol.

She just walked away ….
Curious, I tried some at a breakfast stop in N.Carolina... ghastly!!
As has since been explained to me, they needed salt/sugar/honey or something to make them palatable. A shame the waitress didn't explain that me at the time.

We have deep fried onion balls with Indian food - they're called "onion bhajis" and very tasty they are too!
RE: First Service - Lord Popgun - 06-08-2019
They’re not onion balls. But has chopped onions in them. They are made of corn meal primarily. Its a batter, then deep fat fried. Crunchy on the outside and not crunchy on the inside. Usually shaped like t**ds.
RE: First Service - Bazbro_imp - 06-08-2019
Sounds tasty, irrespective of their turd-like appearance!!
Onion Bhajis are slices of onion in a paste and deep fried.

Onion Bhajis - the orange/brown turd-like objects - yeah, they are incredibly amazing, especially with the coriander dip. Mmmm.
