When Trendland asks Scott Norton of Sir Kensington’s why they chose to curate fries, he goes on by reflecting on how much kudos and attention we so often give to the burger.
It is almost as we forget the fries, as a matter of course on the platter when ordering mains.
As a celebration to fries, “Fries of New York” is a food culture exhibition which explores the traditional status and history of the french fry, displaying a diverse selection of unique specimens from one hundred renowned New York restaurants. Norton says it was important to show diversification of fries from iconic New York restaurants, which the exhibition marvelously achieved showing fries from such as Balthazar, The Little Owl, The Smith, Kat’z and Delicatessen.
