Disco Fries

[hammersavage]

How local of a North Jersey term is this? Where does it extend to?

For those less fortunate, 'disco fries' are fries topped with gravy and cheese and served at various diners in the metro area.

There is nothing better all fucked up at 3am.

[WRESTLINGFAN]

Used to have them when I lived in Mt Vernon, Westchester county , NY is full of diners. Unfortunately the Athena diner on Gramatan ave closed last month. I miss the thruway diner in New Rochelle also

[JohnCharles]

Not here.

Loaded fries or Fries with gravy.

[mikeyboy]

I want that. Now.

I don't know where to get them in NYC.

[JerseyRich]

I think it extends to Central Jersey.

but stops in Monmouth County...

[moochcassidy]

Stupid Jersey fries. I'm going to go try my best to to quell my craving with fully loaded fries from Checkers.

[Aggie]

I miss disco fries...central jersey calls them that. Colonial Diner, Seville Diner, Princeton Diner and Crystal Diner. My old stomping grounds back when we could go to a diner after a bar, get junk food, coffee and smoke cigarettes. :sad::smoke:

[GregoryJoseph]

I've lived in northern NJ for over 40 years and have never once heard this dish referred to as "disco fries," by the way.

I only remember it being called that starting in the mid-90s.

Disco Stu does not recall these fries either!

[Hottub]

You're telling me that doesn't look like heaven on a plate?

More like heart attack on a plate.

Now 2 points.

1) I would eat every last bit of that, then lick the plate clean.
2) Mooch knows about my weakness for The Chipper after they close the pubs.

[jennysmurf]

We had Disco Fries in Connecticut. They taste great going down--not so good coming back up--which is what they always tended to do to me. :flush:

[Fez4PrezN2008]

Never heard of disco fries in Kansas City. But they do have...

I was out of ham one day when the kids wanted grilled ham and cheese, I substituted bologna. They weren't happy about. I tried it, kinda not good.

Is the cheese on these like chunks of cheese or is it like a cheez whiz type cheese. In Montreal we have something called Poutine, that is fries covered in gravy with cheese curds on top.

I miss disco fries...central jersey calls them that. Colonial Diner, Seville Diner, Princeton Diner and Crystal Diner. My old stomping grounds back when we could go to a diner after a bar, get junk food, coffee and smoke cigarettes. :sad::smoke:

Speaking of which, did you hear there was a mob hit at the Seville Diner a few years ago? Apparently the owner was mobbed up and they took him out in the parking lot.

http://blog.nj.com/ledgerupdates/2007/04/restaurateur_slain_in_east_bru.html

Also, the Colonial is no longer the "dirt" diner. New owners came in and cleaned up the place.


One of my favorite memories is eating a cheese burger at the Seville, half-drunk the night the Rangers won the stanley cup.

[PapaBear]

I'm going to go try my best to to quell my craving with fully loaded fries from Checkers.
I just had this for the first time tonight. Pretty good, but you don't get much for almost $4.

[Contra]

Tick Tock diner FTW

Damn I remember eating there all the time at like 3 in the morning when I managed at the Clifton commons theater. And yes, I love and dearly miss disco fries, a haven't found them out here in PA, although there are plenty of diners.

[IamFogHat]

Sounds kind of like poutine, a Canadian dish I'm dying to try.

The best cheese fries I ever had were on the Jersey Shore. Steak-cut fries with cheese and bacon.

[Liverspot]

The addition of gravy makes this seem like a southern dish, the cheese sauce not so much. Dam though, I do want some of these right now!!

the right way to get this is either melted american cheese or mozzarella. the places that sell the squeeze cheese/cheez whiz are lazy, most diners melt real cheese.

[keithy_19]

Whenever I've had them it's always been mozzarella. I don't know if it's a New Jersey thing or not.

[jennysmurf]

I've had them with melted slices of American cheese, but that was in Connecticut. When I was in NY, it would be mozzarella. The mozzarella is MUCH better, in my humble opinion. Still want some.....

[sailor]

why not just do it right with cheese curds?
