It's a staple on the local food truck scene; a hot pink locale that keeps customers coming back for its unique twist on fried favourites. The pandemic hasn't slowed business down for Louanne's Famous Fries, re- ports owner Melissa Keith, who operates the takeout lo- cation at Trafalgar Road and 10 Sideroad. While she opened the food truck's doors a bit later this year due to COVID-19, local residents flocked back in June for everything from hamburgers and deep-fried pogos to those famous vari- eties of fries - classic, pou- tine or Newfie fries, which are covered in ground beef, onions, gravy and a touch of barbecue sauce, or stuffing made with Newfie savoury. "The Newfie fries are one of our main sellers," said Keith. "But I want to say ev- erything on our menu is popular. There's not one thing that doesn't sell." The local woman bought the business from her moth- er-in-law, Louanne, about five years ago and has aspi- rations to one day also open a restaurant location in Georgetown. "I was just out of high school and I thought, you know what, I'm going to buy it (the food truck) from her," said Keith. "It's been an amazing experience. So many loyal customers come back saying they love the food." The truck started off as John's Fries a couple de- cades ago, with the Newfie fries recipe being developed back then after requests from the owner's Newfound- lander friends. Louanne's exclusively us- es Smalley's potatoes, which Keith cuts fresh every day to make her signature fries. For further details, visit Louanne's Famous Fries page on Facebook.
