We (Huntsville, Al.) have a local chicken chain called Tenders. They can make them properly. I believe the key is to have the oil very hot, so that the surface sears immediately and the fry doesn't soak up any oil. I've never had a bad french fry made there. Steak fries, or potato wedges as Publix sells, are even more difficult to get right. The margin for error on those is very fine.
