who has the best onion rings
popeyes was king in the 90s at least. in canada A&W also had good onion rings around the same time. in the past 10 years harvey's in canada has good rings. i still get them if i'm there once in a while, they beat the piss out of fries

None of the chains. The best onion rings are breaded and not battered

in the maritimes of canada at least a lot of seafood places also make pretty good rings but the question is the seasoning. rolling the bones on that basically each time

i have found the pubs at casinos tend to have good donut sized breaded rings and you're right, it's a better coating for onion

i don't like onion rings where it's just crunchy, uncooked onion covered in batter

good onion rings imo are more crispy and don't retain that plant crunch

i used to get them all the time in high school in the 90s. i'm sure that canada a&w still does them pretty good. their food nowadays is a bit pricier than average but pretty good overall

a good onion ring is really really hard to make, way harder than a good french fry. also in-n-out fries are literally the worst, i'd rather have oven fries out of a frozen bag from the grocery store

good onion rings, like good french fries, must be frozen at some point and benefit greatly from the consistency and throughput of factory cooking processes

[ASK] me about OS/2 Warp
Onion layers have a membrane on the inside of each layer. If you don't deal with it, you get that thing where the onion pulls out of the breading when you take a bite.

a decent way to do it is to slice the onions, freeze them for an hour or two, let them thaw. this ruptures some of the cell walls and lets you easily peel the inside of each layer. if you do that, the breading/batter will stick nicely.

i like the "cajun" seasoning at 5 guys and i wish more places had seasoned fries. a good fry shouldn't need ketchup, dip should be optional
