La Fry

“Not every establishment in Fordham understands its own fry. La Fry understands its fry. The matchstick format, double-fried in duck fat, produces a crispness that is adequate, which in this context constitutes a form of ambition and an interior that is present and largely coherent. The grease is calibrated with clinical precision. Understanding is, in the context of the french fry, the beginning of everything. This guide recommends the fries and nothing else. This is sufficient.”

A return visit is, at this point, a formality. One will perform it nonetheless.”
