I have tried Five Guys fries once. They were limp and soggy- are they always like that?

The best fries were the 1/2" thick crinkle cut ones I used to cook when I worked the grill at a bowling alley. Hot,\* crispy\*, made to order. Yummy good times, those.

When I was a teen, a local hot dog joint used to sell crinkle cut shoestring fries. Those were pretty good.
