The story on this crispy, tangy finger food, is that we may never get the REAL story about how Crabfries™, from Philly-based Chickie's & Pete's®, are seasoned and what exactly is in that creamy, cheesy side sauce. What we do know is that any foodie worth his salt was salivating at the thought of no longer having to take a trip down the Turnpike to get them. Among the many upgrades and improvements in Allentown's City Center district, there is now the famous Chickie's & Pete's franchise and their entire menu of yummy bar/comfort food that has been synonymous with the Philadelphia sports scene for decades now.
Truly the best drinking buddy for Crabfries is Victory Brewing Company's Crabby Ale.
These fries are crinkle cut to better hold in the seasonings, which some report to possess an Old Bay-like in zing. They are served by the basketful, which makes the portion size totally shareable. Think twice about reaching for the ketchup though, these hearty mouthfuls were meant to be enjoyed with their velvety cheese dipping sauce, which will have your reaching for the napkins. Oh, so worth it!
