Loaded Truffle Fries
You can’t eat at VIA without indulging in the “Truffle Frites with Parmigiano,” (thin-cut frites with fresh Parmesan and truffle oil). They’re still new on the Worcester restaurant scene, but Ritual also offers a delicious appetizer dish of truffle fries. If you just want a side order, try the homemade frites.

Ritual: 281 Main Street, Worcester, MA (508) 762-9501
Quantity, Variety, and Value

WIngs Over Worcester: 1 Kelley Square, Worcester MA (508) 421-9464
Skinny Fries
While they may not be fries in the traditional sense, the new Tuscan Chips at Prezo's Grille & Bar pack plenty of flavor for the start of your meal. Enjoy the thinly sliced potatoes, lightly fried, and dipped in garlic butter sauce along with parmesan cheese. Be sure to check out this Italian spin on the classic fry.

Luck of the Irish
No one does potatoes better than the green ol’ motherland. Try the sweet potato fries with Maple dipping sauce at O’Connor’s Restaurant and Bar. Really hungry? Test drive “Spud’s Irish Potato Nachos” - seasoned waffle potato fries topped with red onions, black olives, scallions, chopped tomatoes, jalapenos, Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheeses, and sides of sour cream and salsa.

Choose between Cajun Style or Five Guys Style, (russet potato slices fried in peanut oil, which is cholesterol-free).
