Master Frites: The Giant of Brussels Fries
When a spot is officially crowned the capital’s best fry shop by RTL in 2023, curiosity inevitably trumps hunger. Head to Schaerbeek, on Chaussée de Louvain, to test the claims of Master Frites, a quintessential Brussels establishment. Here, the star ingredient is treated with devotion: the potatoes are fresh, carefully peeled, and cut on-site.
This premium ingredient is then subjected to a perfectly executed double-frying process, a technique that clearly makes all the difference. The result lives up to its reputation: golden-brown fries with a rare, crispy exterior, while remaining perfectly tender on the inside. Master Frites doesn’t just serve a classic Belgian street food dish; it elevates every detail, proving that high standards and meticulous care ensure excellence in every bite.
From Schaerbeek to Ixelles: the art of street food mastered
What sets Master Frites apart is its ability to transform street food into a complete culinary experience. Here, the burgers stand out as the true stars of the menu. Among the must-try options, the Pepper and the French rival each other in generosity. Our favorite is the Brusslair: a bold creation combining artisanal bread, a juicy beef steak, melted raclette cheese, and a crispy rösti, all enhanced by a signature house sauce.
