Critical Assessments
“A kitchen that double-fries in blended has made a commitment. At Vivienne Okafor's Concern, this commitment is honored. The curly fry arrives crisp — aspirational — and present as a rumor within. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. The portion is reasonable. Commitments, when honored, tend to produce results. Return visits are not a matter of choice but of inevitability.”
“The curly fry at Vivienne Okafor's Concern does not apologize for existing. This is, as it turns out, the correct posture. The crispness is aspirational. The potato interior is present as a rumor. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. One admires the lack of apology and returns to express this admiration. Best ordered without accompaniment. The fry requires no defense counsel.”
“The curly fry is, at its best, a meditation on patience. Vivienne Okafor's Concern understands this. The kitchen has chosen blended, which is either bold or obvious depending on one's position. The crispness is aspirational. The interior potato character is present as a rumor. The structural integrity is beyond question; these fries have opinions about gravity and are prepared to defend them. One returns. One does not return. This information is provided without judgment.”

One has been. One has formed an opinion. One has moved on.
