I don't know about you, but there is something about a good order of French fries that I absolutely LOVE!

 

Whether they are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, or loaded with a little extra salt, they are one of my favorite comfort foods.

 

Maybe it's the taste, the smell, or that first bite when the fries are hot and fresh. And let's be honest, French fries go with just about everything! Burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, or even on their own with a little ketchup. What's not to love?

 

For me, French fries are one of those simple pleasures that never get old.

 

Whether I'm eating them at a local diner, a fast-food restaurant, or grabbing a boardwalk treat down the Jersey Shore, they're always a welcome addition to my meal.

 

Why Do We Make The Best French Fries In New Jersey?

If you ask me, there is something special about French fries here in New Jersey! Maybe it's the crispy outside, the soft inside, or that perfect amount of salt that makes you want to keep reaching for more.

 

From our local diners and boardwalks down the Jersey Shore to our favorite burger joints and fast-food restaurants, New Jersey knows how to serve up a great order of fries. And let's not forget those boardwalk fries enjoyed during a summer day at the beach!

 

Whether you like them straight-cut, crinkle-cut, or covered in cheese and gravy, French fries are one of those simple foods that just make people happy.

 

Maybe I'm a little biased, but I think New Jersey does French fries pretty darn well!

 

According to a Lovefood report, Kimchi Smoke in Ridgewood is home to New Jersey's BEST fries.

 

"Under no circumstances skip the fries if you visit Kimchi Smoke. The plain fries are fantastic, with a good bite and nice saltiness. But, for a real treat, try the Kajun Fries. These are twice fried before being tossed in the signature house BBQ rub, and they're served alongside the joint's Fatcho Sauce for extra kick. This restaurant may win awards for its barbecue, but we think it deserves one for its fries, too."
