I love Potatoes, be it fries, chips, baked potatoes, mashed potatoes I'm in.Potato King specializes in two types of fries: Japanese long fries and Belgian fries which are very different to each other.When I got there, the signs were encouraging as I could smell potatoes and the the oil in the air wasn't that strong but then I specifically went early in the day so that the oil should be fresher.There is an English menu by the side which is split into two sections.Clearly for the Belgian fries, it
Potato King specializes in two types of fries: Japanese long fries and Belgian fries which are very different to each other.
When I got there, the signs were encouraging as I could smell potatoes and the the oil in the air wasn't that strong but then I specifically went early in the day so that the oil should be fresher.
There is an English menu by the side which is split into two sections.
Clearly for the Belgian fries, it has to go with mayonnaise.
As well as mayo, they have bolognese and cheese but I secretly wish they had gravy for poutine or curry sauce like the English Chippies.
I was so excited about the Japanese Long fries as they only cost $28 which were $50 at the Japanese Fest at PMQ.
There are various of sauces as well but to be safe I went for the mayonnaise and seaweed.
I was tempted on the ketchup but it depends which brand they use as some brands like Delmonte are just sweet.
Potato King reminded me of La Cornet Belge in Central as they have Frikandel and chewylicious Stroopwafels.Will try the Frikandel next time so that I can compare it to the one I tried before.
Stroopwafels:
Drinks at the counter:
Condiments on the table:
While I was waiting, you could see them cut the fries from whole peeled potatoes.
They take their frying professionally as they measure the oil using a temperature gun.
Here were my Belgian Fries which were much better than the ones at La Cornet Belge except that it wasn't served in a cone!!The fries were how they should be crispy yet starchy in the middle, the best thing is that it comes with real mayonnaise.
You could really taste the potato as they are made from fresh potatoes!
Next were the Japanese fries which are a must try as well because they are freshly extruded to order with mashed potato mixture and topped with a sauce of your choice.
As well as the Belgian fries, these satisfied my cravings too because they were fluffy in the middle with light crispy coating!!
Definitely coming back because it is really impressive to come across something that is inexpensive yet the real deal in MK.
So let's hope they can keep it up!
