This why I am asking especially for potatopia....because it has a different approach to the same thing.

British people do like potatoes, such as fried ones with salt and vinegar...as well as baked in an oven with different toppings.

I am considering to operate in an island which has tourists from all around the world, and considering that potato is known to more than 125 countries from 195 all around the world it can be assumed that it has to deal with millions of possibles clients.

But again my concept (as well as potatopia's) is the potato as a main course not as a side one...

Thanks for the reply.

Harris
It sounds like a good business to try, good luck.

wow...what the hell? Never thought this would be a topic on the 996TT forum...but I in all honesty had Potatopia today... I eat there often actually. Think they have one location (close to my work in Edison, NJ) and are opening a second in NYC.

To answer your questions, it is a refreshing change from regular lunch food for me. It is very filling when you load it up with the many options of toppings and sauce. Usually I don't finish a whole "regular smashed" meal. They are always very busy, seems to be a thriving, and unlikely business that they have. Since this isn't 996 discusion, feel free to PM me if you have more questions on it.

So random...its literally one tiny place in a mall food court right now.

Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?

A well prepared fry is delicious. Maybe you just don't have the required palate?
