Frickle!
This evening, I had a Frickle.
When it was described to me, I blanched, crinkled my nose, and asked what other appetizers where available. But Matt convinced me, and I must admit it was much much better than I expected. (The New York Post hated it)
What's a Frickle? Its a lighty battered, deep fried, Lower East Side pickle, served with a dijon dipping sauce. It is -- most astonishingly -- quite good.
You can try a Frickle yourself at Rare -- which also makes some pretty kick ass burgers.
