Theres one here in Columbus. Never been, though.
I like their tabasco something chicken wings + the sweet potato fries. Everything else is average steak house quality.



Tenks, try What a burger spicy ketchup. It converted me back.

Mayo on fries is something that is pretty widespread outside the U.S.; at least, I've encountered in quite a few places. It always surprised me that Americans never fully adopted it, since Americans love dipping everything in the fattiest, creamiest sauces they can (i.e., ranch). Personally, I was converted and now mayo is my go-to fry condiment.

Put on your cowboy hat and go to Arby's and order 20 value curly fries and with a small cup of ketchup and and large coke. Then drive yourself to the er because you're too much of a freeloading communist bitch to make your own insulin.

Arby's sells their curly fries at grocery stores now. They come out better in the oven than at their actual restaurants since 90% of the time I get soggy fries.

I'm going to attempt to hit up Arby's tonight. They've been hitting it out of the park lately with sandwiches, and some of the A1 sandwiches they're advertising now look absolutely delightful.

I'm pretty convinced Arby's just uses generically available curly fries. At the fried food place next door to where I worked at King's Island they had curly fries and they were pretty much exactly the same as Arby's. They were just your standard issue restaurant supplier.

Yeah I worked at a place 20 years ago that served curly fries that were just some random restaurant supply variety and I couldn't tell the difference between them and Arby's.

As for sweet potato fries, the best ones I've had were shoestring cut, baked at home in the oven (since deep frying doesn't seem to suit them) then tossed in a bowl with a little melted butter and sprinkled with Old Bay. Sweet potato has to have some butter on it to taste decent, whatever else it might have on it besides.

How much stuff do you put condiments on? I really can't think of any food that I use them on other than hotdogs and hamburgers, and maybe ketchup with fries.

Bullshit

Arbys uses only the freshest of pristine idaho potatoes, hand peeled, carved, rolled and dipped in Jim Arby's secret collection of herbs and spices perfected over 8 generations which are then cooked by pure american grandmaster fry chefs to a brown crisp that is unmatched by any other fry in the world.
