Fritz European Fry House

To be honest, I've only been to Fritz European Fry House a handful of times. The trouble is that I love fried potatoes and Fritz fries a really good potato.

If I don't keep it in the special treat category, I'd soon be rolling down there on a hoveround and reserving 2 seats for myself on airline flights. As special treats go, they're fantastic.

The fries come in a cone, street food style. The tables, which are more bars to stand at, have holes in them just the right size to hold a heaping cone of fries. There are 10-15 different sauces to choose from. Plain ketchup and tartar sauce, obviously (it's close enough to seattle that the tartar sauce is a given), but they have some unexpected stuff like thai peanut sauce, bbq and red pepper parmesan. This time, we went with curry ketchup.

There are a selection of belgian beers to compliment your fries with, which makes sense.

If a giant cone of fries isn't enough fried food for you they have fried chicken and sausages. I've never tried any of that stuff though. I'm just there for the fries.

Piroshky Piroshky

Don't hate it because it's popular. You should love Piroshky Piroshky, because it's tasty. Albeit in a greasy sort of way.

Oh, and you're in Seattle, right. So you should try the salmon pate one. Which incidentally is shaped like a salmon.

Smoked Salmon Pate Looks like a Salmon, tastes like a Salmon, which is good.

Of course, they have all kinds of stuff. Sweet, meaty savory, and vegetarian savory. Check the menu.

It's down at the market, so watch out for tourists. Actually, now (January) is a great time to go. The line is only about 5 or 10 people.
