GOOD FOOD: FRY SMITH








So the other day I made my own Chili Cheese fries, with some special seasoning of course, and it came out better than a lot of fries out there.  I'm not a huge fry guy except McDonalds really.  Most other places it has to be something extra to it, like cajun, Animal Style, cheese & bacon, chili cheese, etc...so with that I started surfing the web for places with signature fries in Los Angeles.  During that time I came across this mobile kitchen or food truck.  This truck specializes in fries.  Chili Chees fries, even a version for vegans.  Fries topped with steak, onions and chiles, another with kimchi, pork belly and cheese and chicken with tamarind sauce over sweet potato fries.  Sounds interesting.  Their site is here and their twitter is here.  Below is their philsophy:

The Frysmith truck serves fries that eat as a meal. How does that work, you ask? The scientific answer is: we throw stuff on top. Stuff like all-beef chili flavored with chocolate and beer or kimchi and heirloom pork under gooey cheddar cheese. It all gets piled on hand-cut Kennebec potatoes cooked in canola oil (the only oil good enough to be named after Canada).
Frysmith's number one goal is to bring the fine folks of Los Angeles really good, really affordable food made with a modern twist and top-notch ingredients. Our number two goal is to learn how to walk under water while holding our breath and pulling a giant rock tied to a rope. But it's a distant second.
