Ah, you had the all time favorite snack of the Dutch, patat frites – am smiling and my mouth is watering:) Also, one of the last times I was visiting your blog, I saw Zadkine’s statue of “the city without a heart.” Always loved that expressive one.
Last time we were there, we were looking for the statue, and couldn’t find it!
Here’s my specialty https://wp.me/s9EWyp-market

I walked past the Zadkine each day, and it was next to a water taxi stop that was very handy for my explorations 🙂

Were they also fried in duck fat? Mmmmmm. I like the perspective you used for the photo, Debbie. I also went with something to eat, but at a different part of the meal.

No, veggie oil only. Less temptation for you!
Glad you like the composition – I wanted to show the size of the market hall, and the handy provision of cone holders so you can relax over your chips

There’s a restaurant called The Publican in downtown Chicago that serves the fries that are done in duck fat. They are absolutely amazing for a once in a while indulgence.

The only debate about Poutine is who invented it. Fries with cheese curds and gravy.

I’m not sure I like the sound of that – but I must give it a go!
I’ve found a list of the best poutine places in London – https://londonist.com/london/food/londons-best-poutine – I’ll report back once I’ve tasted 🙂

I actually prefer grated old cheddar cheese and a thick mushroom gravy rather than the traditional Quebec version. But I’m a Brit who doesn’t like vinegar and who was having mayonnaise on his chips before it was a “thing”

🙂 I’m a Brit who doesn’t think gravy should be mixed with chips! But these may win me over

I was the same regarding gravy on chips but the cheese makes it different from regular chips so the gravy seems fine in those circumstances. I don’t like ketchup on chips which is the popular sauce around here. I think that may be why I like mayonnaise.
