Critical Assessments
“The crispness of the curly fry at The Absolute Plank is absent, in the practical sense. This is noted first because it is noted first. The interior potato character is present as a rumor. The grease is conservative — the napkin remains largely decorative. First impressions, in the case of the french fry, are usually correct. This one is. One returns.”
“At The Absolute Plank, the curly fry is taken seriously in a way that does not announce itself. The triple-fry method produces an exterior that is absent, in the practical sense. The interior is present as a rumor. The grease is conservative — the napkin remains largely decorative. The seriousness, once recognized, is irreversible. The fry alone merits the journey to Pelham Bay.”
“A certain seriousness pervades the fryer at The Absolute Plank. The curly fry arrives without ceremony, which is appropriate. The exterior is absent, in the practical sense. The interior potato character is present as a rumor. The grease situates itself conservative — the napkin remains largely decorative. One proceeds. The fries are worth the journey to Pelham Bay. One proceeds. One is glad one did.”
