saus

saus was exactly what we needed. a comic-­clad “street food” shop offering all manner of frites, poutine, snacks and sandwiches. i chose the plainfriteswith “samuraisaus,” a chili and mayo combination with the shrimp and scallion fritters with a deliciously refreshing chili dipping sauce, fittingly named “green monster”. the shrimp and scallion fritters tasted like the shrimp cheong fun from la maison kam fung in montreal, only fried (‘murica.) i couldn’t decide whether to dip the fritters in my samurai saus or the green monster sauce. both complimented the fritter and left a lingering heat.

not feeling the love. we passed by saus early one morning and made a note to go back sometime when they were open because the concept sounded so good: belgian pomme frites, waffles and frikendel, with a bevy of homemade sauces.

the restaurant exudes cool; all hardwood and stainless steel, with framed cartoons everywhere. sadly, saus was all style and no substance. the "frites" tasted just like the crap you'd get at wendys. i've hadfritesin belgium and these just didn't cut it - at all - but the homemade sauces were very good and made the potatoes somewhat more palatable. the salted caramel waffle was okay but not as good as other reviewers have claimed. my husband got the frikendel, which came out shriveled and burnt. very disappointing way to blow $25.

a new restaurant serving belgian pomme frites, fried eggs and waffles . how could i not be drawn to such an appealing trio? saus , open less than one month, is located on union street , relatively close to fanueil hall, the north end and city hall. i had eagerly followed the progress of saus on twitter , and stopped by the other day for my first taste. and i will be returning. the restaurant is small, able to seat around 20 or so people, and has some interesting decor, lots of pictures of french comics. i like the decor, and think it injects some originality and personality into the space. you order your food at the counter, and the menu is small, concentrating onfritesand waffles. pommefritescan be ordered in three sizes, costing $4, $5.50, and $7, and you receive a free sauce with your order. additional sauces, of which there are at least a dozen varieties, cost $0.75 each. the sauces range from truffle ketchup to cheddar & duvel ale . you can also get poutine , in two sizes cost

boston's first belgian street food cafe is now open! last tuesday, saus opened its doors to the adoring, frites-hungry boston audience. located in the bustling faneuil hall/government center area, saus is in a small place, has a small menu, but is generating a lot of big buzz, very quickly. they serve made-to-order belgian pommefriteswith a variety of sauces ( saus! ) as well as liege waffles. the waffles are made with pearl sugar, which gives it a crunchy, addicting texture. while the french fries are made with crack. i think. i'm not one to get obsessed withfrites(although i find it hard to resist truffle fries ) but there was something about the crispy frites, the delectable dipping sauces, and the fun company of friends that made me deliriously happy when we were at saus. the fries were pretty addicting and as soon as chin , one of the owners, set it down on our table, we all turned into dip-happyfritesgroupies, declaring which sauces were our favorites, munching away with bi

if you heard a new restaurant was opening up and all it was serving were fries and waffles, would you go? i wouldn't have to think twice. and i shouldn't say just fries and waffles -- fries, waffles, and a crazy variety of dipping sauces! that is exactly what saus does... and does well. "part classic americana, part authentic european, saus takes the best of both worlds by fusing traditional made-to-order pommesfrites(belgian fries) with an ecelectic menu of dipping sauces." - saus website on thursday night, i met up with a group of friends at saus to sample some of those made-to-order pommesfritesand dipping sauces. i trekked over after work, hopping from the redline to the sardine-packed greenline, tumbling out of the train at haymarket, and meandering my way to union street. i knew saus occupied a very small spot on the street and walked slowly so as not to miss it. i caught sight of the sign over the doorway, the chalkboard menu in the front window, and then daisy , michelle ,
