Critical Assessments
“One finds at Chez Plank a curly fry that has been attended to. The crispness is aspirational. The potato flavor is present as a rumor. The grease is conservative — the napkin remains largely decorative. The portion is restrained. Attendance, as a form of culinary philosophy, is rarer than it should be. One visits twice. The second visit confirms the first.”
“The curly fry at Chez Plank does not apologize for existing. This is, as it turns out, the correct posture. The crispness is aspirational. The potato interior is present as a rumor. The grease is conservative — the napkin remains largely decorative. One admires the lack of apology and returns to express this admiration. One does not return. This information is provided without judgment.”
“The menu at Chez Plank contains many items. The informed visitor orders only the fries. The curly fry is double-fried in canola. The crispness is aspirational. The potato flavor is present as a rumor. The portion is restrained. The informed visitor is correct. One visits twice. The second visit confirms the first.”

One has been. One has formed an opinion. One has moved on.
