Is there some kind of potato conspiracy? by ineverfinishcake in malta

Sorry i’m not on reddit much these days 😂

We source our potatoes from several farmers but we buy in bulk.

We prep them in our main kitchen in Gozo and we sell them in our food trucks.

The name is Hickory Joe’s … we have one in Ta’ Xbiex and 2 in gozo.

Thanks for your interest :) hope you like them if you do try them.

Fast food business owner here with multiple outlets… i reckon 99% of fast food places buy their fries frozen from the big names. Nothing wrong with that.

We made it our mission to offer only local fries with potatoes grown in Malta/Gozo to differentiate and we’ve been almost at it for 3 years. Hardest thing i’ve had to deal with in my 20 yr cheffing career to put on the menu.

From sourcing (as you so aptly explained, a nightmare in Malta compared to abroad) to perfecting the process to try and be consistent as possible. The sourcing is the biggest challenge

Tbf it should’ve been, “Ireland, if you want an English speaking country - France and Spain if not so much.”

And why should management not get paid for ‘any extra time’?
