Friends, if you’re anything like us, you love a good food combo — popcorn and Maltesers, garlic bread and pizza, mash and gravy, peanut butter and chocolate, Vegemite and avocado, hot chippies and chicken salt — they immediately get your taste buds tingling.
So when one of our favourite takeaway places, Red Rooster, introduces a new flavour combo to its menu, you can consider us sat and salivating. Today, Red Rooster announced cheesecake fries will be joining the menu for a limited run.
Don’t let the name fool you! These bad boys aren’t actually potato chips. They’re, in fact, a delish cake-style fry, cooked to golden perfection and covered in a sticky sweet cream cheese glaze and a sprinkle of vanilla crumb. Fkn yum!
Reds’ cheesecake fries were created as a sweet accompaniment to Red Rooster’s Fried Chicken Burger range. The crunchy, hot or spicy fried chicken paired with the sweet, creamy cake fries is a winning combo if you ask us.
Anyway, we had a round of cheesecake fries and burgs delivered to the PEDESTRIAN.TV office so we could taste-test these delicious morsels for you. Here are the team’s honest thoughts.
“The Red Rooster cheesecake fries are bloody delicious. Do I know why they’re specifically cheesecake fries? No, but they do taste like delectable crunchy doughnut fries, and I’m all for them,” says Laura.
“The name confused me, but I liked it?” explained Mia.
Pauline reckons they were completely addictive and moreish(!!!) — word in the office is she may have snuck back for seconds. And Bek, well, Bek seemed to have disappeared from the office at exactly 3pm, returning only to tell us that, “They’re the perfect arvo sweet treat or post-gym reward!”
According to our girl Pia, “They should be called churro fries! They basically taste like a churro with a weird sauce and like cheesecake crumb.”
We also have it on good authority that “they’re still delicious even after being refrigerated”, according to Adam, who may have eaten them the next morning for breakfast. LOL.
Interesting, Adam. Interesting…
TikTok is also getting excited for them; just look at the AngeEats comments section.
“YUMMMM THEY LOOK SO GOOODDD,” commented one user.
“This is fucked up… I need it,” replied another.
So did we, mate, so did well.
Overall, we rate ’em. What better way to finish off a succulent Reds burger feast than with the sweet sticks of gooey goodness that are Cheesecake Fries?
Red Rooster’s Cheesecake Fries are available for a limited time only at Big Red’s nationwide, including if you order by delivery (hungover feast, anyone?). You can wrap your gobs around ’em here.
