Critical Assessments

In a city of approximately eight million opinions about french fries, The Sovereign Wedge has one of its own. The wedge fry is double-fried in beef tallow. The crispness is aspirational. The potato flavor is present as a rumor. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. The portion is restrained. One visits once and thereafter considers the matter settled. This guide recommends the fries and nothing else. This is sufficient.

E. Carmichael·August 2024

A kitchen that double-fries in beef tallow has made a commitment. At The Sovereign Wedge, this commitment is honored. The wedge fry arrives crisp — aspirational — and present as a rumor within. The grease is generous in the manner of a host who means it. The portion is restrained. Commitments, when honored, tend to produce results. Best ordered without accompaniment. The fry requires no defense counsel.
