Some interesting background info about this activityQuote from the website:

"Absolutely incredible! Up until now there was no Frietmuseum in the whole world, which means that the Frietmuseum in Bruges is the first and only museum dedicated to potato fries."

" The questions most frequently asked are: “Where does the potato come from?”,
“Was the fry invented in Belgium?” and “What is the secret of making good fries?” The Frietmuseum in Bruges gives the answers to all these questions and many more."

"On the ground floor you can learn about the fascinating history of the potato which originated in Peru more than 10,000 years ago. On the first floor, the visitor can discover the history of the fries and how they came to Belgium and in the basement of the building, in the medieval cellars, it is even possible to sample some."
