There is so many favorite staples around the United States that are considered a must try, that skipping out on an unique eating experience is almost down right a travesty haha. I'm serious, I have had the fortunate opportunity to taste some great food coast to coast. You got your luaus, spam musubis and plate lunches to name a few if you ever visit Hawaii, then you got your assortment of street taco spots scattered all throughout Los Angeles,ranging from traditional tacos to hybrids and fusions such Korean tacos and nachos with mouth watering Korean style beef and unique spices. I've had salt water taffy for the first time in New Jersey, Chili Frito pie in Oklahoma, fresh crawfish in Virginia, and one of my favorite pig out spots on the east coast,R U Hungry lunch truck located at Rutgers university in New Jersey which offers Fat Sandwiches stuffed with just about anything your heart desires.
Well, I can add a new entry into my endless list of must haves and pig out spots,located in the heart of Tempe,Arizona: US Fries!! What makes this spot unique is their main attraction called poutine,which is a Canadian-French dish that consist of crispy fries,smothered in gravy and cheese curds. Honestly,my knowledge of Canada is limited ,and I can sum up it all up with 5 words: hockey,Bret Hart, Wayne Gretzky, maple syrup and snow. I can officially add poutine into that list.
What US Fries did was add a bit of american flare to it while still keeping the dish true to it's origin. There's at least a half dozen different variety's from traditional to the wild such as the one I ordered called pork 3 ways( BBQ pork,honey ham and crispy bacon) topped on top of a order of poutine!
There was a different flavor with each bite I took,with the gravy, smoked flavor of the meats and cheese curds all complementing each other well,it was definitely a party in my mouth haha and my belly did back flips.
There's something on the menu for everyone, yes including vegetarians as well. I also saw that you can also substitute fries for rice and that's what I may try the next time. I recommend not only this place but also this word of advice:if you're not a big eater or you're dining alone(as I was),then a small order will hit the spot good. For more of a bigger eater or a group of friends who want to share,the large will do that trick alright. Whatever you choose to do or even order,if this is your first time here, I can almost be certain that you may never just settle with just plain old fries again.
Yes,it's that damn delicious! I promise you that.. Aloha until next time when my belly finds another place to eat at,Love, Peace and feast(m0de)
