Our story

The love for Frites

Out of love for taste, craftsmanship and hospitality Frites Atelier was created with one unique focus: to bring a sensational Frites experience and unite people in shared love for this simple and delicious comfort food. Prior to the launch of Frites Atelier, Michelin-starred chef Sergio Herman spent a whopping 18 months developing the unique Frites Atelier French fries. His focus on the continuous development and improvement of every culinary aspect is unparalleled. This distinctive and complete approach to taste and feel has created Frites Ateliers that can grace the vibrant streets of world cities.

Frites Atelier was een pionier op het gebied van het concept 'loaded fries' en heeft daarmee een nieuw segment aan de markt toegevoegd. Sinds 2016 bedenkt chef Sergio Herman unieke Frites Specials voor Frites Atelier, met typische namen als 'Veggie Alla Norma' en 'Arabic Baba & Feta' . Frites Atelier biedt een nieuwe Frites ervaring met respect voor traditionele waarden, waarbij de smaak en textuur van onze eigen Frites Atelier-Frites telkens het verschil maken.

Na een proces van 18 maanden, waar in diverse aardappelsoorten, bodemtypes, productiemethoden en bakprocessen werden getest, werden de Frites Atelier-Frites uiteindelijk goedgekeurd door Sergio Herman. Momenteel zijn er vier Frites Atelier vestigingen in Nederland en België.
