One
summer back in the mid '60's I managed the guest cafeteria
at Cedar Point Amusement Park in Sandusky Ohio. It
was one long beach party interrupted by work. Lived
too many days on boiler makers and beer nuts. And
Berardi's French Fries. Berardi's had a stand at
Cedar Point; served the best french fries I ever
had. And with white vinegar of all things, instead
of ketchup. So
I stopped by Cedar Point this trip for a reunion with
their fries. Alas their food service had taken over
the fry concession. A decent fry, but nothing as
good as Berardi's. I asked around. Learned
that the Berardi Family had a restaurant in Huron, a few
miles east of Sandusky. Headed there for
dinner. Went for the local fried perch. And
french fries - with white vinegar of course. Just as
I remembered them. Worth the detour off the Ohio
Turnpike. Some of the best fries in the US.
