Critical Assessments
“The question of the ideal french fry has occupied this guide for some years. At Downtown Wedge, one arrives closer to an answer. The curly fry, triple-fried in blended, presents crispness that is commendable and largely sustained and a potato interior that is present and largely coherent. The grease is conservative — the napkin remains largely decorative. Proximity to an answer is, in this case, sufficient. One does not return. This information is provided without judgment.”
“A kitchen that triple-fries in blended has made a commitment. At Downtown Wedge, this commitment is honored. The curly fry arrives crisp — commendable and largely sustained — and present and largely coherent within. The grease is conservative — the napkin remains largely decorative. The portion is forthcoming. Commitments, when honored, tend to produce results. Best ordered without accompaniment. The fry requires no defense counsel.”
Christina's Note
An adequate entry in a crowded field. One visits with calibrated expectations.
