Ricci

“One does not arrive at Ricci lightly. The steak fry presents itself with the quiet confidence of a thing that knows its own worth. The double-fry technique is evident in the exterior: aspirational. The interior potato character is present as a rumor. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. This guide notes the address. In the final accounting, the fries are the only item that matters. Ricci knows this.”

“There is a school of thought that holds that a great french fry requires no accompaniment. Ricci belongs to this school. The steak fry, double-fried in lard, makes its argument in silence. The crispness is aspirational. The potato flavor is present as a rumor. The argument is persuasive. The fry asks only to be appreciated. At Ricci, one appreciates.”
