The Royal Fryer

“The fry at The Royal Fryer does not call attention to itself. It does not need to. The thick-cut format is executed with a precision that suggests long practice and very few shortcuts. The crispness is commendable and largely sustained. The potato flavor is earnest and specific. One finds, upon reflection, that the fries were the correct decision. The address is committed to memory.”

“A kitchen that triple-fries in lard has made a commitment. At The Royal Fryer, this commitment is honored. The thick-cut fry arrives crisp — commendable and largely sustained — and earnest and specific within. The grease is conservative — the napkin remains largely decorative. The portion is reasonable. Commitments, when honored, tend to produce results. One returns.”
