Fries of Mine
I wasn’t really that hungry walking around the streets of Amsterdam but I was a little peckish.
A few places caught my eye, but the prices were, well not eye watering, but not In my budget.
I noticed that Ter Marsch & Co was quite popular, so looked at the menu, they did burgers. I wasn't in the mood for a burger, but the signature fries looked interesting. You could also see into the serving area and I liked how they were making the signature fries.
I decided to go for the Fries of Mine, which had been winner of best fries 2020 (in the Netherlands). This was fries with truffle mayo, grated parmesan cheese, cheese-nut crumble, diced pork sausage, and fried parsley.
Despite the queue, it moved quite quickly and it wasn't too long before I was ready to place my order. I ordered my fries at the counter and then took a seat. When my fries were ready, my number was called and I collected my fries.
They looked fantastic.
I was provided with a little wooden chip fork, personally I would have liked a bigger fork. The twice cooked chips were hot, with a crisp outside and fluffy inside. The topping was generous, but not overpowering. You could tell it was just the right amount as by the time I finished the box of fries, there was a small amount of topping left in the box. I never felt as though I was just eating plain fries.
This was a lovely place to eat fries, it was rather cosy, but that just added to the charm of the place. The service was welcoming, friendly and efficient.
I wasn't sure what I wanted to have, but I really glad I went here and I enjoyed my...

Read moreSaw the good reviews and that it is a chain, so we assumed the food would be quite decent. Couldn’t have been more wrong.
Fries were dry and felt like they sat a long time after being cooked. The classic burger had an absolutely horrible taste and went straight to the trash. Oh cheesus burger was okey, but it seemed overcooked.
When ordering we got asked like 3 times if we wanted a soda. Unfortunately I am not made of money and wasn’t thirsty enough to pay 3.6 euros for 300mls. I am mentioning this because after the third time, the server decided to crack some shitty joke about it: “Oh if you guys want to add salt it would be 10 euros. Inflation and all that.” DUDE, WE DID NOT WANT TO PAY 3.6 FOR A SMALL SODA. GET THE HINT AND...
