Critical Assessments

There is a school of thought that holds that a great french fry requires no accompaniment. The Perfect Brasserie belongs to this school. The steak fry, double-fried in vegetable, makes its argument in silence. The crispness is commendable and largely sustained. The potato flavor is present and largely coherent. The argument is persuasive. A return visit is, at this point, a formality. One will perform it nonetheless.

W. Cheswick·November 2023

One finds at The Perfect Brasserie a steak fry that has been attended to. The crispness is commendable and largely sustained. The potato flavor is present and largely coherent. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. The portion is reasonable. Attendance, as a form of culinary philosophy, is rarer than it should be. One returns.
