After the Tears

After the Tears can do no wrong and this time was no different. Despite chips not exactly fitting the mould of the average Eastern European herring or golabki, they excelled in taste, crispness and accompanying condiments. These hand cut chips served with paprika mayonnaise, sour cream and tomato sauce, were not too oily or too soggy. We were hesitant when the waitress presented us with hand-cut chips with the skins left on and the sauces all mixed in one bowl. However, upon biting into the first chip, we were hooked. The skins ensured a crispness that distinguished it from others and the flavours were addictive. The bowl was polished within minutes and our conversation was revolved around these finger-licking delights. Furthermore, the chips were tasty without the accompanying sauces as there was a hint of rosemary and garlic. This we found very impressive as the condiments played their role to perfection - didn't detract from the scrumptious potato but added that extra flavour when needed. Respect to serving options of sauces as it caters to those who prefer the classic tomato sauce, the adventurous paprika mayo or the traditional sour cream. It tasted home-made and fresh, rather than packaged and defrosted. I'm already itching to go back!
