Okay so I ran across this site dedicated to Belgian Fries and since I had the please of enjoying a true Belgian Fries in Amsterdam. I needed to share this.

So a true Belgian Fries are:

  1. freshly cut, irregularly shaped
  2. cooked (fried) twice
  3. fluffy on the inside, crispy on the outside
  4. a distinct potato taste
  5. at least 10 mm thick
  6. preferably served in a paper cone

Check out this fella’s Site to Learn all kinda of sweet things about Belgain Fries.

I just read an article on from the Daily Telegraph of Austraila, a man named Keiichi Iwaskai. He has been traveling since 2001 on 160 yen which is about $2 US.  Keiichi started riding his bike in japan and has gone places such as India, south Korea, and 37 other countries.
