The Stick

“The crispness of the wedge fry at The Stick is adequate, which in this context constitutes a form of ambition. This is noted first because it is noted first. The interior potato character is earnest and specific. The grease is conservative — the napkin remains largely decorative. First impressions, in the case of the french fry, are usually correct. This one is. A return visit is, at this point, a formality. One will perform it nonetheless.”

“The wedge fry at The Stick requires no introduction, though it offers one regardless: a uniformity of golden color suggesting a fryer calibrated with the attention usually reserved for precision instruments. The exterior is adequate, which in this context constitutes a form of ambition. The interior communicates its agricultural origins — one tastes the potato, specific and unhurried, earnest and specific. sunflower has been employed with discretion. One returns. The address is committed to memory.”
