- Friterie
A friterie (in French-speaking Belgium and some parts of Northern France), or frituur or frietkot (in
Flanders ) is a traditionalchip shop serving quick service fast food. Friteries are often found on main highways and town squares and may be full restaurants offering a table service through to a caravan, trailer or even a converted van or bus just offering atake away .Friteries offer many types of meats to have with
frites , such ashamburgers ,brochette ,frikandel ,meatballs ,merguez ,croquettes and fried chicken. Another characteristic of a Belgian friterie is the large selection of sauces includingketchup ,mayonnaise ,tartar sauce , american, samuri, riche, mexican, oriental, brazil, béarnaise or diablo. Traditionally the frites were served in sheets of paper rolled into a cone. Nowadays most friteries are serving them in a plastic box.A variation is to serve the meat, the frites, possibly salad and sauce in a half of a
baguette and is called amitraillette [cite web |title=Mitraillette |url=http://www.frites.be/v4/index.cfm?context=article&ContentID=764 ] which literally translates assubmachine gun . Alternatively, the same ensemble is put in adürüm , although this practise is more common in friteries run by immigrants.References
