French Fries

What makes a good french fry? I think it is the crispy factor coupled with fry size. The curly fries fade ruined fries for a long time, i mean a big mac and curly fries was gross. The crispy factor is simple cooked golden brown so that there is a crunchy snap. The size is important as well, the fries have to be weighty or feel substantial. Shoe string fries should not be considered fries and be lumped in with the chips.

Here are my thoughts:
Any casual fine dining, pathetic limpy and soggy, heat lamps kill.
McDonalds fries are tasty but to thin.
Wendys has a good sized fry but they are never crispy.
Belga Cafe has got crispy but to thin but they also give you mayonaise, at first i was not into it but i tell you mayo and fries is pretty good.
Boardwalk fries are well sized and crispy and perfect with malt vinegar and Heinz.
Longworth fries good sized bad execution.
Mortons fries: Shoe string, you might as well pass.
Popeyes: Ha ha ha dont make me laugh.
5 Guys, always soggy and if you need old bay then you are hiding the fact that your fries suck.
BK- Umm you coat your fries with ass dip, you suck.
Ore Ida Steak Fries, love the size cant get crispy just sucks up too much oil
Amsterdam fallafel- great size, mostly crispy, garlic mayo
Chic-Fil-A waffles annoying but cooked well.
Central Hotel Shanghai: surprisingly good crispy and weighty

The best--- Les Halles, probably the best fries in the city. Nice crispy factor and well sized big not fat but well intentioned.
