TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis put on the gloves and picked up a spatula at a Sarasota-area Waffle House on Thursday to help cook for first responders after Hurricane Milton left a path of destruction across the Tampa Bay area.

“We just helped a little bit with the hashbrown operations,” DeSantis said. “They’re limited menu. Although, to see Waffle House open, you know that we’re getting back up on our feet.”

DeSantis said the Waffle House is not making waffles because it requires more generator power than the griddle.

“They’re doing the steak and cheese and sausage on the hashbrowns, so it was a limited menu, but it was fun to be able to help out,” he said.
