Let’s talk about our famous potato puffs (deep fried cheddar cheese gnocchi, coated in a garlic parmesan dusting). We created a gnocchi recipe that worked well for frying, and suited our menu. Originally this was our main starch style side dish that would accompany one of our grilled cheese sandwiches. Usually served with our smoked garlic mayo or marinara sauce. We decided to put these potato puffs on our menu the first year of business instead of french fries, to see how the public would receive a new style of street food. They were a hit! We would sell out everyday of these garlic parmesan dusted delights, and began using them in what normal people would use fries for, like our pulled pork potato puff poutine. We then created a loaded baked potato style side dish with them, and the demand kept rising. Still to this day, we get many reviews and memories of how people miss our potato puffs.
