Differing from traditional patat (fries) stands in a number of crucial ways, Tante Nel has pleasant street-side seating where its many and varied regulars settle in to enjoy treats such as hand-cut, expertly cooked fries with truffle mayonnaise or patat stoofvlees (fries topped with a rich meat stew), washed down with a gin and tonic, beer or milkshake.
