sleeper menu item at a lot of cafes, often beats any of the pastries on offer

medium-rare, ask for the chimichurri or peppercorn sauce — fries should be thin and crispy

sourdough properly toasted, properly seasoned — add an egg to make it a real meal

split it after a heavy meal, single order is plenty for two without question

ask for whole milk if you're not picky, the texture is genuinely better
