French Fries
There was a local place near me that had GREAT fries then they changed to batter dipped. I complained to the manager who insisted those were much better, and now instead of once a month I go to that place about once a year.TheCatt wrote:Oh, god, Jesus, who the fuck came up with those, and why do they still exist?

This poll is too boolean.
So, overall, I love the steak fries (fat fries) best. Particularly when served with steak or a burger where they can sop up some juices. NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM.
In the absence of said steak or juices, they are still awesome, but only if crispy. Crispy fries come in many shapes (McDonalds, steak fries, CFA fries). The CFA ones are pretty great.
The problem I have with crinke cut is they always remind me of the "fries" you get from a grocery store freezer which never really taste quite like fries.
Hand cut can be good, but there's a lot of variety in quality.

It's not me, it's someone else.
You should have burned them to the ground.GORDON wrote:There was a local place near me that had GREAT fries then they changed to batter dipped.

Where's the option for "shape doesn't matter, just be sure to overcook them until they are a dark mahogany brown and super crunchy."
I find almost all restaurant fries to be disappointing. There are a couple of places that will cook to order, though.
EDIT: I picked batter dipped just because they tend to be more cooked and crispy. You almost never get sad floppy moist batter fries. They'd be better without the batter but with the extra cooking, though.

Some places' hand cut fries are just soggy logs of potatoes, which is gross.
Others do it right.
Well yeah. Similar rules apply to any food or beverage. A margarita is like a finely tuned Stradivarius -- great when handled properly, ass otherwise.

A french fry dipped in batter may as well be jammed up someone's ass before it's served.
