A nice walk on a beautiful day always makes fries taste better. The Trace is a neighborhood bar—and seemingly the only spot around with fresh-cut fries. Our waiter assured us they were good, so we had to try them.
They didn’t disappoint: not overly greasy, cooked well, and simply seasoned. A perfect afternoon snack.
Notes:
Flavored with big chunky salt and little flakes of pepper, a nice balance
Parmesan is just some shaker cheese and not much flavor
