Potatoes fried right

By Valerie Christopher

French fries at Grill-A-Burger are like heaven in a basket. They're sliced Idaho fries slightly peeled, soaked in water, deep fried in olive oil on a low heat and then refried on a high temperature to turn them crispy brown.

I recommend complementing the fries with a burger, but be sure to fold each fry on your tongue to savor each bite. A basket of heaven is $2.95. I don't recommend sharing if you're eating them for the first time - so tell your friend or partner to get his or her own. Grill-A-Burger is at 166 N. Palm Canyon Drive in Palm Springs.
