Best French fries in Naples, Marco: Vote now in our poll that runs thru Friday

They're sometimes an afterthought, what comes with the meal. And French fries arrive to your restaurant table in shapes like waffle or cut or even curly.

Whether fries originated in France or Belgium (there's still a dispute over it), we're just happy the French fries began somewhere and they're still available pretty much everywhere in the U.S.

With the Summer Olympics scheduled for Paris later this summer, it makes sense now to try to identify the best French fries in Collier County.

So we asked readers to chime in and, boy, did they. And we took those suggestions and created a poll where you can vote through Friday, June 21, for your favorite (see poll below or vote at naplesnews.com).

Readers share their French fry favorites

"Best natural French fries. At The French on Fifth Avenue, Naples," Maurice Verbruggen wrote in an email. "As a Belgian guy where they were invented, I know how they should taste!"

Katherine Macht raved about the Fogg Cafe at Naples Botanical Garden in East Naples.

"I also enjoy the ones at Fuse global cuisine on 41," she added. "My husband’s favorite is La Casa del Taco on Airport-Pulling. A bit of a sleeper."

Chains also are included in the poll, with some nominating Five Guys, Culver's and a few others.
