Last Wednesday I decided to continue my recent trend of having something that I have not yet reviewed in this blog for my work break. I don't know if Physiol have only started serving potato gems recently or if I've only just noticed this recently, but I figured potato gems would be worth reviewing. I have reviewed a number of fried potato dishes in this blog: chips, hash browns, and scallops, but never potato gems. In fact I haven't even had potato gems since I was a kid, and a small one at that. So, how do potato gems stack up against other fried potato preparations? I would say, at least in the case of Physiol's offering, that they are quite similar to hash browns, only smaller and with proportionately more potato. As I like hash browns, this is a good thing. They were worth sampling for nostalgic reasons and for the sake of this blog, but little else. They were adequately satisfying, but I was happy with my decision to only order a small serve. There is very little else that can be said other than potato gems are a very simple snack. However, it is a snack that I doubt that I am going to make a habit of indulging in. As a side note, I also ordered a dagwood dog, and I noticed that the stick said "Keith's" or "Roger's" or something, thus confirming my suspicion that Physiol are not making their own dagwood dogs. I suppose this renders my previous review of "Physiol's" dagwood dogs moot.
