French fries are regarded as more than a side dish in New York City, sparking debates about styles such as shoestring versus steak fries. Katz's Delicatessen is a notable establishment, famous for its thick steak fries served alongside pastrami sandwiches for decades. Owner Jake Dell emphasizes the importance of maintaining traditional recipes and styles, asserting that while NYC evolves, the fries at Katz's remain unchanged and beloved. The delicacy of steak fries offers a contrast between a crispy outer layer and a soft, almost mashed potato-like inside, catering to diverse preferences.
Thick or thin, short or long, french fries are more than just a side they're the main character.
At Katz's Delicatessen, the fries have stood the test of time and are not going anywhere.
There's something special about a steak fry. You get the crispy outside, and then the inside is almost like mashed potatoes.
To me there is no such thing as a bad fry except maybe shoestrings.
