Ye Olde Chip Truck — Restaurant in Kenora

🍟...A SIGHT FOR SORE EYES...🍟 AND SUPER FRIES

Having left the Great Lakes behind me and.... ....after a six hour, 500km drive through changing, beautiful forested landscape & hundreds of small lakes I arrive in Kenora to find this.....

😍...."HEAVEN ON WHEELS"....😍

Right on the Highway and smack bang in the middle of the so-called 'City' (😀..haha..😅)

The truck serves fries only..... .....BUT WHAT FRIES.....💥💥💥 Golden crispy on the outside, deliciously fluffy on the inside.

They were that good I had a second portion there & then....🐷 🐷

🍟♻🍟♻🍟♻🍟♻🍟♻🍟♻🍟

Several times I walked past over the weekend & there was almost always a "line up"......💕🌺💕🌺💕

I'm salivating just writing this Review.

✔...SURPRISE - SURPRISE.......

I grew up in Kenora and I remember when the Chip Truck was really a truck. The owner would drive it home and back every night. He filled up each night at the gas station I worked at as a teenager.

In those days, you not only filled up the gas but checked the oil and fluids and tire pressure. The Chip Truck guy always tipped me with a big bag of French fries, like a big paper grocery bag-sized bag of fries.

I was really surprised that they still seem to continue the tradition of never replacing the fryer oil, just topping it off.

That's why they're so dark and stormy.

The best French fries in Canada, hands down, and you have to have them with salt and vinegar. There's no ketchup or gravy or even pepper so don't...

I LUV ❤️ fries - and for almost 60 years have been making the trip to Ye Olde Chip Truck everytime I am in proximity to Kenora. Unfortunately, I have found the product quality slipping in the last few years. Far too many small slivers of dry fried peel displacing the "full size fries" I craved in my last 3 X-Large orders - most recent today. (Appx 40% slivers) In my opinion, simple sorting/culling and closer attention to the final product could solve this problem and deliver a quality taste experience like in "the good Olde days". Maybe it is time to look for an alternative taste...
