French Fry Diary 351: In-N-Out Burger

One of the places I get the most recommendations to do reviews of their fries for here at French Fry Diary is In-N-Out Burger. The problem is that while In-N-Out is a strictly west coast place, I am strictly an east coast guy. Sigh.

There is good news however. On The Bride's recent west coast excursion she had the chance to visit an actual In-N-Out Burger, and she got all sorts of stuff for me (no food, just giveaway items), and kinda reviewed them by proxy. Isn't she just a sweetheart?

The Bride was hungry and stopped in on her way to Los Angeles from Anaheim after midnight. She was surprised to find them both open and very busy. Almost sounds like White Castle a little.

Not knowing about In-N-Out's secret menu, The Bride just got the standard burger, fries and a drink. She saw others getting melted cheese and other stuff on their fries but didn't see it on the regular menu. She knows why now. Among the fries available from the secret menu include several variations of soft to crispy to extra crispy (almost like meat - light, light well, well, extra well), cheese fries, and the notorious animal fries.

In-N-Out Burger peels (sometimes) and fresh cuts their fries from Kennebec potatoes in house for hot and tasty regular cut French fries. The Bride said her fries were a bit underdone, so I wonder if maybe she said the word 'light' at some point while ordering.

Either way they looked good, and the burger tasted good. Hunger appeased after midnight by the west coast's famous In-N-Out Burger. Maybe I'll get there in person one day.

Random Tater Pic of the Day #38


More from The Bride's work conference in Los Angeles... another catered business lunch in the Ghostbusters hotel, and another serving of potatoes. In the serving tray this time are Roasted Yukon Gold Potatoes. Mmmm...

Whoops

It happens sometimes. Whoops.

Apologies for yesterday's entry. Sometimes a video on YouTube will be available for a while, and then, mysteriously become unavailable. That's what happened yesterday. I also learned a lesson to double check myself here. I guess I'll just commiserate with some fries.

By the way, the link to Los Angeles' Fresh Fries is still good, check it out here. They are still one of my number one stops if I get out to the left coast. And their dessert fries are still a thing to behold, and be eating...

French Fries for Dessert

We've seen dessert fries before here at French Fry Diary, but these sweet potato fries are just a little bit different. Hmmm... Elvis might like these...

This segment comes from "United Tastes of America," which airs on Food Network and Cooking Channel. Here host and food fanatic Jeffrey Saad checks out Peanut Buttercup Fries from the Fresh Fries food truck of Los Angeles.



Mmmm... enjoy!
