The McDonald's french fry is the Roger Clinton to the proper french fry's Bill: it's close to greatness, but it always lets you down. It's hard to imagine that they even come from the same tuber. A proper fry is a culinary delight, with a crisp, ...

Pros: Best fries in New York

Cons: Not recommended for the health-conscious

Big cones of fries that are fried TWICE. These babies are sure to satisfy. A huge selection of dipping sauces, but none as good as the malt vinegar they provide. Small eating space with benches and tables with holes cut in them to hold your cone. Sure to satisfy at any time of the day or night. You may feel like you need an angioplasty afterward, but you kinda know what you are getting into when you go to a place that serves only fries.
