i went to that dessert place next to TnT in metrotown and they had those electric ones, and the person working there did exactly like you described. the plates were already preheated. she poured the batter on one plate, swished it around a bit, closed the other plate on top, and then turned it over. she then set an eggtimer for 5 minutes or so, after which it was done... $3.33+tax and into a paper bag it goes
