It's friday already so let's start discussing something that hasn't been done here and discuss a couple of important questions. (or whatever else you want it's the chat topic after all)

  • What day is the correct day to eat fries from the frituur and why is it friday.
  • What do you order at the frituur?
  • Why are people who use frikandel weird and people who say lange hamburger clinically insane? Civilized folk use curryworst after all.

Why limit yourself? Every day can be fries day. Middel stoofvlees and a vleeskroket (I live in NL so I have my own real Belgian mayo at home) Curryworst for life!

Because working out after eating fries and drinking beer is not fun. I've tried. It's like a very bad combination of acid reflux, burping and fat sweats.

[–] Dakracs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I mean, that day can still be fries day, just eat it after your workout.

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There's no frituur open after 2200 on a weekday where I live.

[–] Dakracs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Well damn, sorry to hear that.

I heard someone in NL call Belgian mayonnaise "zure mayonaise" when ordering in the frituur. Is that the word for it? (we call nl mayo "zoete mayonnaise").

[–] Dakracs@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Hah, nah man. You order mayo in the snackbar here and if you want actual mayo you ask Belse Mayo. Otherwise you get 'mayo' from NL which is sweet as fuck.

Is that a trick question? every day is the day to eat fries from the frituur!

[–] antik@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Good morning!

  • Vettige Vrijdag at work
  • They have their own grilled burgers which are just too good + small fries. Both with Samurai, obviously
  • Guess I'm weird, frikandel!

@antik@lemmy.world Apparently pinning a posts from my instance doesn't transfer to lemmy.world unfortunately.

@Mysteriarch@slrpnk.net didn't notice that one yet! Can you add issue that to the lemmy-ui github? I did a search and the issue has not been reported yet. If you don't have time or whatever I'll test/report it later

[–] Mysteriarch 3 points 1 year ago

Done, hopefully it's helpful!

To answer your questions:

  • Any day that someone suggests going to the frituur.
  • A small portion of fries and usually two snacks, often a 'frikandel speciaal mé curry-ketchup'.
  • I already outed myself as a weird one I guess?

Anyway: last day before the start of the summer holidays! I hope y'all have fun and enjoy, but also stay active enough to make this place an attractive alternative the the other site. I think we're already doing great!

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Enjoy your holiday. It's just a matter of being the change you want to see.

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'll start:

  • Friday ofcourse, the only excuse being that you think you're smart for avoiding long queues by going on another day.
  • Stoofvlees, kippesaté, whatever else my family wants and a pintje voort wachten.
  • Cause they sound like Dutch people. Or for the worse variant, like Limburgers.

Also, off to Werchter tomorrow so to everyone who has to work: 'hahahahahahahaha"

What day is the correct day to eat fries from the frituur and why is it friday. Whatever day I want fries really... try to avoid friday and saturdays because everyone else wants it then and it makes for long wait times.

What do you order at the frituur? Middel pak, joppie saus, kippets, frikandel special en ne ribster. Voor 2, soms iets exotisch zoals ne berepoot of een potteke stoofvleessaus (ma tegenwoordig maken er niveel frituren in ons buurt die nog zelf.)

Why are people who use frikandel weird and people who say lange hamburger clinically insane? Civilized folk use curryworst after all. lange hamburger?? what insane person would order that.

Good weekend ahead, tomorow some breakfast at a breakfast bar and sunday a whole day of DM'ing for D&D. Monday I get to pick up my new gaming laptop, get new tires for my car.

[–] antik@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Gaming laptop? What games do you play? Bit of a gamer here too mainly overwatch and battlefield 2042. And minecraft with my daughter :)
