waffle fries
waffle fries have two great things going for them - amazing texture and maximum surface area. when i think about having waffle fries as part of my fast food meal, i think of chick-fil-a. how can i not? their waffle fries are the prefect compliment to their chicken sandwiches. i love how the fries are served in those heat-retaining foil lined bags. sadly, i can't remember the last time i had waffle fries. they were certainly never available at the college dining hall's 'fry bar.' only one place in my college town had them - and i only discovered that place during my senior year. it was a sort of diner like place tucked between a hotel and a home depot. or between a motel and a lowe's. i only ate there once or twice - but just the discovery of waffle fries at a place other than chick-fil-a was great. it gave me hope for the future. a restaurant in brooklyn used to serve waffle fries (and you never knew if you were going to get waffle fries or curly fries), but they went out of business. oh, i miss waffle cut french fries.
