  As it bloody well should be. More than one order of fries of any size should be a life-altering amount of potato

  Similarly, any chip shop in the UK outside of greater London. I’ve taken to ordering a medium chips for my wife and I, because a large is just Too Many Chips.

  In London, however, they serve a tragically small amount of chips in many chippies. Fuck London.

    a large is just Too Many Chips.

    I’ve yet to encounter such a phenomenon.

      I think I’ve gotten too old for a large. The spud, coupled with a beers leaves me feeling uncomfortably bloated.

  They really go overboard.

  Like even the smallest portion, you can eat with 4 persons and all be full.

  Wasn’t even in Belgium but in France near the border and there was one of these shops setup in a kinda temporary thing on the highway. Still felt a bit peckish after the tiny triangle sandwich so ordered a small fry, was greeted with not much less than pictured here haha. Had to share them to get through it.

  Lots of them, but man they’re all little nubs. That would annoy me.

    If you’ve never eaten Belgian fries, they’re really good
