Critical Assessments

One finds at The Distinguished Fry a curly fry that has been attended to. The crispness is commendable and largely sustained. The potato flavor is earnest and specific. The grease is conservative — the napkin remains largely decorative. The portion is forthcoming. Attendance, as a form of culinary philosophy, is rarer than it should be. The fry asks only to be appreciated. At The Distinguished Fry, one appreciates.

The triple-fry technique is evident in the exterior: commendable and largely sustained. The interior potato character is earnest and specific.
