Follw up: Who has the best french fries?

[stinkynuts]

A follow up to the sandwich question. I will say Church's fried chicken has the best fries, the crinkle cut style. Followedy by McD's, of course!

I don't think they have Church's in Toronto, but it is popular in Vancouver.

Holy Chuck or Jackson Burger. For fast food chains, though, for me, it’s McDonald’s.

Agreed!

Easy winner is VUE Bistros snack bar at the CN Tower. Yukon gold imported from somewhere fancy, fried perfectly. Did not expect this at all, however once we tried ordered 3 more servings. However I have not been there recently so can’t tell if the quality fluctuates.

2. Baton Rouge

3. Red Rock. It’s a hit and miss. Sometimes they get the frying technique down and taste really good.

I go to the one across from Walmart near Sherway Gardens and always found them greasy and soft as fuck.

McDonalds Fries are my personal favourite, although Costco fries are pretty good.....

Swiss chalet when they get the proper technique executed.

Union Social in Mississauga has a good truffle french fry!!

Burger priest might be the worst french fry that I have ever had.

I agree, of the big chains McDonald has the best ones. They also have very good coffee.

In no particular order, Swiss Chalet/Harveys, NY Fries, McDonalds and Five Guys. My Tfal ActiFry homefries are right up there but not for resale. Actually, it is hard to fuck up fries, just as long as you have fresh oil and reasonably fresh, still crisp potatoes, cut evenly and not overcooked. It is hard to distinguish which type of potato is used although I don't seem to like Yukon Gold for fries but they are great in salads, maybe it is just the eye appeal.

Swiss Chalet fries with Chalet sauce are amazing. Can’t believe I forgot about them!

I like Costco's fries.
But my favourites are Lafleurs in the greater Montreal area.

Five Guys

The worst by far is McDonalds, I don’t want salt on them at all.

 

[richaceg]

5 guys...pretty much the same as New York Fries...I like those fries from food trucks outside CTIRe...

 

[silentkisser]

McDonalds fries when they're hot and nicely salted...amazing. When they cool down...not so much.
