I'd heard a lot about the magical 'Boy & Co.' which promises a menu made up exclusively of fries and milkshakes, so a trip down to Glenferrie Road was much too enticing to pass up when I was over in Melbourne's Eastern suburbs visiting friends.
From the moment you walk in, the setting is reminiscent of a 1950s diner, with booths perfect for groups, and an outdoor seating area in their backyard courtyard which would be lovely on a warm summer day. The food delivers the goods as well. I got the chilli fries (substituting the meat for extra cheese sauce) and stole a few of my friend's salt and vinegar fries too. While very moreish, they were similar to Lord of the Fries, so if even a plate of fried goodness doesn't convince you to make the trek across town, LOTF provides a perfect alternative.
And yes, while the fries were very good, it was the milkshakes that will have me coming back. From traditional flavours like Blue Heaven - aka The Heisenberg, to the "pimped" Britney Spearmint and Cereal Killer (it's Crunchy Nut blended with ice cream, and yes, it's amazing), the consensus was that the milkshakes were the real winner.
You can stare at photos of their fries by clicking on the social media links below, but if you rather see them in the flesh, you'll find Boy & Co. at 224 Glenferrie Rd in Malvern.
