The Classic Bistro

“The matchstick fry at The Classic Bistro does not apologize for existing. This is, as it turns out, the correct posture. The crispness is commendable and largely sustained. The potato interior is earnest and specific. The grease is calibrated with clinical precision. One admires the lack of apology and returns to express this admiration. The address is committed to memory.”

“The matchstick fry is, at its best, a meditation on patience. The Classic Bistro understands this. The kitchen has chosen vegetable, which is either bold or obvious depending on one's position. The crispness is commendable and largely sustained. The interior potato character is earnest and specific. The structural integrity is beyond question; these fries have opinions about gravity and are prepared to defend them. One returns. One finds, upon reflection, that the fries were the correct decision.”
