Pommes Frites

One of my favorite food I can't resist are potatoes. I love potatoes. So when I saw a food joint specializing in French Fries I had to try it. Pommes Frites is a restaurant located on 2nd Ave in New York, so somewhere around SoHo. They specialize in Belgium fries. Not much different from other fries except they fry them twice and have variety of sauces. The sauce is what makes this type of fries unique. They have about 25-30 different types of sauces you never imaged trying with your fries. My favorite was the mango ketchup and the pomegranate teriyaki mayo. But of course they're are some I haven't tried yet, so when you visit try other ones and tell me about it!

The store is fairly small, and the interior isn't much to look at, which I'm guessing the reason majority of the customers takes their fries To-Go in a cone shaped package, almost like an ice cream cone. So if you happened to be in NY and are dying for some fries, you now know where to go get some.

Shake Shack

Continuing with the foods from New York, my next restaurant isn't a restaurant but a small shack located in middle of Madison Square Park. This food joint was recently featured on Food Network and have to be one of my FAVORITE place to eat at New York. I was first introduced by Soy during Spring Break where she basically dragged me down to Madison Square in the cold. They have various menus, but they are best known for their burgers and shakes. However, personally I love the Shroom Burger, which is a ball of deep fried mushrooms with cheese. This is a must try.

Shake Shack I visited is in middle of Madison Square Park. The sittings is outdoors. The only negative part about this restaurant is that the wait for this is VERY long, especially during lunch time, so make sure to get their early!
