Frites n Meats - Review

Intro
Frites n Meats - Not Recommended (1st try)
Truck between Greenwich and Chambers St
Tribeca, New York

The dudes at Frites n Meats are trying to capitalize on the latest craze of food trucks and well made burgers. This truck proudly touts the breads are from Balthazar, meats from DeBragga, and cheese from Murray's. I so wanted to love this burger, but unfortunately it didn't quite work out for me.

My Menu
1) Grass Fed Angus Burger, Potato Onion Bun, Gruyere Cheese
Comments - Solid beef flavor and great cheese. Unfortunately, the burgers were very dry and the texture not much better. Also, the fries were relatively limp with no crisp or big potato flavor. The chili mayo was pretty satisfying all together.

Rating System
--- What the F - in a bad way * Good ** Great *** What the F – in a good way


Closing Comments
The burgers are at a great price point at $5.75, but unfortunately the execution was way off. But, for that price point, I may have to give it another try - Tribeca is hella expensive during lunch.
