Disco Fries from New Jersey

Disco Fries, New Jersey’s late-night culinary hero, reportedly strutted onto the scene in the 1970s when disco balls lit up dance floors. Though its exact creator remains a mystery, it became a staple in diners across the Garden State, offering a comforting finale to a night of dancing.

Crispy fries smothered in melty mozzarella cheese and drenched in rich gravy. It’s a trifecta of comfort food goodness. Today, Disco Fries remain a beloved favorite, perfectly capturing the essence of New Jersey’s diner culture. They’re a reminder that sometimes, the best ideas come late at night, perhaps even under a disco ball!
