Frites Alors can be found at 3497 St. Laurent (and many other places around Montreal) and they sell Belgian fries. Apparently, these fries are special in that they're fried in horse oil. Me and a friend decided to try it out and we ordered fries with 3 different dipping sauces: Bearnaise, Pistou rose, and Frite alors.
We weren't really impressed. After trying all three of the dipping sauces, my friend concluded that the best dipping sauce for fries is ketchup. The sauces didn't really complement the fries all that well, and the temperature of the fries made a difference to which one we liked best. When the fries were hot, we enjoyed the Pistou rose the most, but when we revisited the fries after they cooled off, the Frites alors actually tasted the best. All in all, I wasn't so satisfied with these fries and would rather make a visit to Mcdonalds for fries with ketchup.
