Critical Assessments
“At Bar Fry, the waffle fry is taken seriously in a way that does not announce itself. The single-fry method produces an exterior that is commendable and largely sustained. The interior is earnest and specific. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. The seriousness, once recognized, is irreversible. This guide recommends the fries and nothing else. This is sufficient.”
“The single-fry technique employed at Bar Fry produces a waffle fry of commendable and largely sustained exterior and earnest and specific interior. The duck fat is evident and appropriate. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. The portion is forthcoming. One notes the address for future reference and then, somewhat against one's usual practice, acts on it. One does not return. This information is provided without judgment.”
“One visits Bar Fry for the atmosphere and departs thinking only of the fries. The waffle cut is executed with a steadiness suggesting neither haste nor contemplation — only the correct application of heat and timing. The crispness is commendable and largely sustained. The potato is earnest and specific. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. One recommends not visiting for the atmosphere. The neighborhood offers alternatives. One should not investigate them.”
Christina's Note
An adequate entry in a crowded field. One visits with calibrated expectations.
