Pommes Frites – New York, New York
By
Pommes Frites is an authentic Belgian fries shop. The fries are fresh cut, twice fried and served in a cyclinder. The orders are available in either Regular, Large or Double. There’s a wide array of sauces to dip your pommes frites into. Each sauce is $1 or 3 for $2.50. I ordered the Large size with a side of Honey Mustard Mayo. I know, I know..how un-original of me. I love honey mustard, what can I tell you. My wife Marcela ordered a mix of the Cheddar Cheese Sauce and the Sambal Olek (hot chili paste).

Since they employ the double fry method I knew these fries would be nice and crispy (they were). The fries are cut in the size of somewhere in between a steak fry and a standard fry (not shoestring).

The fries really were awesome but the sauces is where it gets good. I loved both sauces we had. The Honey Mustard Mayo was probably the creamiest tasting Honey Mustard I’ve ever had and the Cheddar/Sambal Olek mix had a good kick to it.

There’s 25 sauces to choose from plus you can actually sample them which is cool. There’s also Poutine on the menu . Poutine is a popular Canadian dish where the pomme frites are topped with cheese curds and gravy. If there’s one I regret I have it’s not ordering it and also not sampling all of the other sauces.
