That would be preferable, but it is usually slopped over top of them.
That being said, maybe I have not been in the right kind of restaurant
lately, but I do not recall seeing gravy and fries on a local restaurant
for some time. Menus used to always list fires and, for a little more,
fries with gravy. The concept seems to have been *******ized by
Quebecers who added cheese curds to it and called it Poutine.
