REALLY GOOD
1st FREE TWISTER FRIES
McDonald's Metropolis, Singapore
These seemed better than the ones I had the last time when they were sold as “Prosperity Twister Fries” which is ironic since I got em’ for free with the app.
2nd REGULAR SOUR CREAM & ONION FRIES
Shake Shake in a tub Star Vista, Singapore
Been wanting to try their fries for 1-2 years but just never took the plunge until today. I don’t know how they can consider this serving of fries regular when it is so shockingly tiny? Kiddie cup would be a more appropriate label. But at least, they make good fries. 🙄
4th FRENCH FRIES (SMALL)
McDonald's, Singapore
BRIEF: “Our World Famous Fries® are made with premium Russet Burbank potatoes. These epic fries are crispy and golden on the outside and fluffy on the inside. In Singapore, we cook our fries in 100% Canola blend oil with no trans-fat. Our cholesterol-free fries do not contain any wheat, gluten nor beef extract.” SOOT’S TAKE: Some days McDonald’s really gets it right with their fries. Today was not one of them.
5th SKINNY FRIES
Fatburger & Buffalo's @ Star Vista, Singapore
Got these at a steal for $1, which is a fifth of what they normally cost.
7th DEEP FRIED SWEET POTATO WITH CHEESE & SPICY TRUFFLE
Itacho Sushi, Singapore
Until today, every sweet potato fry I’d had had fallen short of that seemingly impossible ideal that so far, I’d only experienced in the French fry. Today, I had to satisfy a craving for sweet potato fries and resigned myself nonetheless to expecting flavorful but somewhat soggy fries. Little did I expect that it would also be the first day of the rest of my life in the world of sweet potato fries. These were delightfully crispy on the outside and tender soft inside, flavor uncompromised. Best sweet potato fries I may have ever had. The dip didn’t hurt either.
8th FRIES
Burger King, Xiamen
Fresh off the fryer. Crispy on the outside and pillowy inside. Tried not to burn my tongue.
10th TRUFFLE FRIES
Bao Makers, Singapore
Shoestring fries with truffle oil
13th FRITES
Martin Zwerts Friture, Singapore
Late lunch, bordering on dinner. Had to have em’ again despite the hefty price tag. Crispy exteriors + fluffy interiors = un-Dutchable fries. So far, anyway. Since I’ve never been to the Netherlands. 🇳🇱
16th FRIES
McDonald’s, IL
McDonald’s fries never tasted so good after 2 tiring flights across 3 Americas. 🍟
18th TRUFFLE FRIES
Knuckles Bistro, Singapore
Fried to a perfect crisp and just wonderfully tasty! 😋
PRETTY GOOD
20th 烤土豆片
木屋烧烤, Hang Zhou Shi
Super spicy, cumin-laden potato chips 🥵
21st TRUFFLE FRIES
Peace Hotel Old Jazz Bar, Shang Hai Shi
They’re truffled in so far as they come with a truffle oil(?) laced dip (not shown). Otherwise, they’re decent enough fries.
23rd PROSPERITY TWISTER FRIES™
McDonald's Metropolis, Singapore
BRIEF: “It's happiness all around with a returning favourite. Our auspicious golden curls are a definite smile maker.” SOOT’S TAKE: They’re curly fries-tasting (the same kind of seasoning used seemingly ubiquitously in curly fries elsewhere), but if I had to choose, I’d still stick with regular fries. I dunno why I never remember that I’m more partial to regular than I am to curly fries? 🤨
24th CURLY FRIES
Cafe on the Ridge, Singapore
With Cheese Dip. They’re ok. Wouldn’t repeat.
25th WAFFLE FRIES
Pink Fish - Jewel Changi, Singapore
Came as a side as part of the combo meal.
26th PAPAS FRITAS CON PARMESANO Y AIOLI
Hard Rock Cafe, Buenos Aires
One of 3 types of their “artisan fries.” Good but not great.
28th ポテトフライバター醤油 BUTTER SOY SAUCE FRENCH FRIES
Watami Japanese Dining - Star Vista, Singapore
It’s like an upgraded version of honey butter chips. My only beef is with the serving size which seems a fraction of what’s depicted on the menu. 😒
29th NATURAL CUT FRIES
La Juiceria Superfoods Verve Suites Mont Kiara, Kuala Lumpur
Would be better with a tad more of that truffle oil, but still good.
