I'm looking for variety---curly fries, cajun fries, chili fries, classic french fries, waffle fries. Whatever...just who has the best and why! (And then I will try to figure out how to justify trying all these places while still eating healthy! :) ) My vote goes to Poste for their truffle fries---pure heaven!!! Fri May 04 06:55:49 -0700 2007 76776 Elyssa 1 2540845 I love the waffle fries at Bourbon, they are so crisp and nicely spiced. The garlic rosemary fries at Brewer's Art are out of this world. Fri May 04 06:57:57 -0700 2007 2540837 49675 gooseterp 2 2540871 Yes the fries at Bourbon are excellent...especially served with their crab cake sandwich. I think they might spice the fries with Old Bay---always a good touch! Fri May 04 07:07:13 -0700 2007 2540845 76776 Elyssa 3 2541380 They do indeed spice the waffle fries with old bay.

They are excellent! Cap City is usually only valuable for happy hour but those burgers and fries are great. Fri May 04 07:21:43 -0700 2007 2540837 96252 daves_32 2 2541382 This is the first time I've even heard of food at Cap City as being even pallatable let alone good. Fri May 04 09:23:43 -0700 2007 2540908 49180 jpschust 3 2541547 It's true. "excellent" was the wrong word. I was just trying to present sweet potato fries as an alternative to reguar fries. like others have said on here, the beer is the first (and usually only) priority Fri May 04 10:02:55 -0700 2007 2541382 96252 daves_32 4 2541780 I tasted a few of the sweet potatoe fries at St. Ex and they were mighty tasty. Fri May 04 10:58:15 -0700 2007 2541547 76776 Elyssa 1 2541453 The "chips" at Eammon's are big, and fresh. They are crisp on the outside, and creamy on the inside. You can add malt vinegar, ketchup, or dip into one of thier special sauces. Fri May 04 09:39:20 -0700 2007 2540837 65673 monavano 2 2541457 I've been wanting to try Eammon's for a long time but I don't get out that way too often. I've heard good things about the chips though. Fri May 04 09:40:11 -0700 2007 2541453 76776 Elyssa 3 2541526 I found Eammon's decent, but underwhelming. Didn't live up to the hype. Fri May 04 09:57:56 -0700 2007 2541457 11516 biscuit 3 2541557 Tried Eamonn's for the first time last weekend. Very tasty all around. Chips are indeed big...very big. Fried perfectly. Quite a treat. The fries at Blue Duck Tavern were rather memorable for me. Good stuff. Fri May 04 10:04:43 -0700 2007 2541457 19571 AndrewF 1 2541888 I've always liked the fries at Stoneys (both old and new locations). Fresh cut, a bit of skin on either end, hot, not greasy. They sell a lot of them with the burgers and sandwiches so they're always fresh. A good simple frenchfry. Same deal with Sign of the Whale's fries. Fri May 04 11:23:56 -0700 2007 2540837 12359 monkeyrotica 1 2542118 I like the chilli cheese waffle fries at Asylum after I've downed the vegan huevos rancheros @ Sunday brunch. I really don't think anything cures a hangover better.... Fri May 04 12:15:29 -0700 2007 2540837 53358 winger1930 2 2542134 Good call, though I don't like them vegan style... Fri May 04 12:20:37 -0700 2007 2542118 49180 jpschust 3 2542188 I love the fries at Johnnys on the half shell, and at Breadline. Both are just fresh and flavorful.
