Los Angeles just witnessed the crispiest competition in town—the French Fry Showdown Presented by CHAIN x Jameson Irish Whiskey! This epic pre-St. Patrick’s Day bash turned CHAIN House into fry heaven, where guests feasted on endless golden fries, sipped on Jameson-infused cocktails, and crowned the ultimate fry champion.
The event had it all: shoestring, curly, crinkle-cut, waffle fries, tots, wedges, and more, paired with next-level sauces like Jameson Irish Whiskey BBQ, black garlic ranch, and a classified “secret sauce.” Oh, and for those feeling extra fancy? There was even a Caviar & Crème Fraîche Station with a custom French Fry Challenge x Jameson ice luge.
A-List Fries & Faces
The star-studded guest list brought even more flavor to the night, with appearances from BJ Novak (The Office & CHAIN founder), David Dobrik, Ryan & Lexi Cabrera (WWE’s Alexa Bliss), Bravo’s Brittany Cartwright & Zack Wickham, Love Island’s Miguel Harichi, Blair Redford, NFL stars Ray-Ray McCloud & Jordan McCloud, designer Jonathan Marc Stein, DJ Sebastian Topete, and many more!
Fry, Sip, Repeat!
The Jameson Irish Whiskey Bar made sure no fry was left unpaired, serving up signature sips like the Lucky Root (whiskey root beer), Minty MockRock Slushie, Nickel Pickle Backs, and the non-alcoholic Pi Day mocktail for those keeping it booze-free.
The CHAIN Experience
If you haven’t been to a CHAIN pop-up, you’re missing out! The world’s first gourmet ‘chain food’ concept, founded by BJ Novak and Michelin-starred Chef Tim Hollingsworth, takes classic fast-food favorites and gives them an elevated, chef-driven twist. Their exclusive events always sell out, and this fry-fueled showdown was no exception!
