Fries with (mayonnaise)
This is serious business for the Dutch. A favourite food. The though there are other things you can get fries with like ketchup, curry sauce, or peanut sauce; mayonnaise is so common you don't even have to specify it; you can just say "Fries with" and you'll get mayo.
As good expats seeking to fully embrace our new culture, and we've learned to love these too!
After much sampling and discussion I'm pleased to give you...
#3 Bram Ladage (http://ladage.nl/)
Though it is in the #3 spot it is a fantastic Frietje met. Bram Ladage began in Rotterdam with a single store and now has ~40 stores in the Netherlands. Top marks for quality and consistency across the different stores we've tried.
#2 Tante Nel (http://www.tante-nel.com/)
A small gin bar on Pannekoekstraat that also has a great Friete met. This place isn't too far from our apartment and it showed up on someone else's best fries in Rotterdam list so we had to try it to see if it was better than our #1 choice. It made a good impression, but it couldn't touch the top spot.
#1 Pomms (http://www.pomms.nl/pomms-rotterdam/)
This is by far our favourite Frietje met in Rotterdam and if the consistent lines are any indication others feel the same way we do. With a single location in a prominent part of Rotterdam; these folks really know how to make fries.
