Vleminckx Sausmeesters

Frying since 1957, and still the best value queue in the centre.

Every viral fries video in Amsterdam eventually points here, and for once the internet is right. Vleminckx has been double-frying in the same alley since 1957; the menu is a wall of sauces and the correct answer is oorlog.

Under five euros, better than the hyped newcomers, and the paper cone warms your hands in winter. In the guide, scored, no notes.
