If you want to eat some truly luxurious French fries, you have to be in New York City., at the world-renowned Serendipity 3 ice cream restaurant, located on the Uper East Side of Manhattan.
It is the most expensive plate of potato chips in history, for the modest sum of $ 200. But they are not just any French fries, they are prepared in such a special way that they cost the imposed price.
The dish was made for him National French Fry Day, and on-site chefs Joe Calderone and Freddy Schoen-Kiewert proudly describe their recipe: French fries are made with Chipperbeck potatoes sourced from the north of the state, Dom Perignon champagne, Ardenne vinegar from J. LeBlanc French champagne, Guerande truffle salt, Urbani summer truffle oil and topped with shaved Cretan Senesi Pecorino Tartufello.
The potatoes are fried in pure goose fat and passed through that fat twice in order to be ultra crispy. They are also sprinkled with edible gold and served on a glass plate decorated with an orchid.
This haute cuisine preparation It has just received a Guinness World Records certification and since last July 13 it has officially been the most expensive plate of French fries in the world.
Joe Calderone, chef of the place and creative director assured that this restaurant is really a happy place and of escape: “People come here to celebrate, to really escape the reality of life sometimes,” he said.
This restaurant already holds other Guinness records, such as the most expensive hamburger for $ 295, as well as the most expensive ice cream for a cost of $ 1,000.
For Freddy Schoen-Kiewert, executive chef of the company, he assured that “the truffle is the main star of this dish”.
After being closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, now they thought they should recover so they went to their haute cuisine. These fancy fries seemed like the ideal way to make up for what was lost.
And it seems like it’s working Since the dish came out, at least a week ago, until today, there is a waiting list of eight to ten weeks at least.
“It’s been a tough year, so now we want to have fun,” Calderone said. So it seems that this is a good way to celebrate “National French Fries Day.”
