The Golden Frite

“One does not come to Park Slope for the fries. One comes for the fries at The Golden Frite. The distinction matters. The waffle fry is aspirational without, and present as a rumor within. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. The portion is reasonable. The distinction, once understood, becomes permanent. This guide recommends the fries and nothing else. This is sufficient.”

“The waffle fry at The Golden Frite represents a kitchen with convictions. The exterior is aspirational. The interior is present as a rumor. The peanut does not call attention to itself. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. Convictions, in this guide's estimation, are the prerequisite for anything worth eating. The fry asks only to be appreciated. At The Golden Frite, one appreciates.”
