New York Tater Tot Smackdown: Which Spuds Reign Supreme?

Tater tots at Burger Place inside Billy Hurricane's
We had the best of tots, we had the worst of tots. But there is really no such thing as a truly bad tater tot - it’s kinda hard to mess up deep-fried potatoes. Tater tots seem to be popping up on menus around the city,  from haute Chinese kitchen Wong to cantina-within-a-movie-theater Nitehawk, and we felt the need to try them all and then pit them against one another, smackdown-style. Are there any favorites that we missed? Share them in the comments.

  2. Great list, looking forward to a few taste tests of my own. Passed it along here: http://seektobemerry.blogspot.com/2012/06/hump-day-distractions_20.html

  3. Try the Barrow Street Ale House, awesome tots. I'm sure they're right out of the bag too, but they aren't (too) greasy and they're always piping hot with the perfect amount of salt and crunchiness outside, and soft and flaky inside. It's honestly pretty much the only reason I go there.
