THE COUNTER

(Original post: 1/29/12)


This week I unfortunately got salmonella poisoning from a deli breakfast sandwich.  Although I am at the tail of this sickness, I cannot think about food very much without my stomach sending angry messages to my brain telling it not to eat.  I have however thought fondly about eating PARMESAN FRIES from The Counter.  These FRIES are the only food I have been able to crave during this miserable week.  That said, these FRIES are my all time FAVORITE FRIES in New York.  The Counter is a fabulous burger join that I  first took notice of in Honolulu, my home town.  Although I never got a chance to eat at the Honolulu location, I had been coveting a taste of their burgers and FRIES since I heard that Jin from Lost (the attractive Korean man) was a part owner.  I don't know if the part about Jin is true, but seriously, everyone needs to try this place.
These FRIES are perfectly crispy, and have a ton of parmesan cheese, garlic aioli, and rosemary.  I don't even know how to put in words how yummy these are.


I should also mention that I am lactose-intolerant, and suffer the aftermath of eating cheese for these FRIES.  I don't do that for many things.

THE COUNTER GRADE: PARMESAN FRIES

The Counter's regular FRIES are also above par.  Just like the parmesan ones without all the extras.
