De Pijp's best frites (fries) by far are at takeaway shop Frites uit Zuyd, with black-and-white chequerboard tiling on the walls and floors, and at its sleek sit-down restaurant Friterie par Hasard next door. Crispy, fluffy frites are accompanied by traditional pickles, mustard, or sauces such as satay, mayo or chilli-spiced sambal. Wooden benches line the pavement out front.
Demand for its fresh, hand-cut frites has been so strong that it opened a factory to supply businesses Amsterdam-wide.
