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

ask for extra dressing on the side, house croutons should be fresh and crispy

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

ask if it's house-made and warm, vanilla ice cream is the right pairing

overpriced almost everywhere, but at the right cafe it's genuinely great
