Ma-Maw’s Diner

Hey everybody, welcome back to a new installment of fry thoughts for your consumption! Yesterday morning my wife and I went out to this place, Ma-Maw’s diner, about a half an hour outside the city. I like a good drive almost as much as I like my morning plate of french fries, so it’s good to get out and see the area.

Address: 1001 S Main St # 4, Baltimore, OH 43105

Cut: Straight/Shoestring (hard to tell in this case, it’s borderline in the classification)

Thickness: 3.5/10

Crispiness: 4/10

Salt/Seasoning: Light salt, no seasoning.

Price: $2.49/serving.

The french fries here are branded as Brew City Fries, and to be honest I don’t know if that means anything in particular, or if it’s just something they call the fries to sound cool, but the best thing about the fries here is that for a fry that is almost a shoestring cut, they’re very substantial on the inside. A lot of diners, if they use a thin cut, due to the re-use of the oil and having to fry many different types of foods, the fry will come out overly crisp on the outside, and the inside will be almost hollow. This did not happen here, the fries almost feel creamy on the inside (this is a very good thing). The serving size is slightly small for the price, but not by much. The fries were served very war, but not piping hot, and tasted very fresh. Overall a very good experience, though by my experience the fries were the best part of my order (contrary to some beliefs, I do eat other things when I’m doing these reviews).
