Imagine, a restaurant devoted solely to french fries, er, pommes frites. Actually, they call them Belgian fries. The fries come in a paper cone, in three sizes, from $4 to $7.50. They have about 25 different sauces, for $0.75 each. We tried a garlic mayo and a peanut satay sauce. Both were good.

You order and pick up your food at the counter. There are several wooden tables in the back, with holes to hold the paper cones. We had kids with us, and it was a good place to take them. The atmosphere is bohemian, in keeping with the East Village location, and not at all like a fast-food place. We sat there and slowly enjoyed our fries. The servings were generous, but we made a valiant effort to finish them. Very enjoyable.
