If there’s one thing that White Castle seems to get right with me, it’s that — even late at night — my fried food is always pipin’ hot and fresh outta the fryer. The regular French fries I reviewed a while back might been a little too regular for their own good, but I did at least get them blazing hot. Now is this deep-fried outcome preferable to the time-tested steam-grilled method employed with the WC’s signature Slyders? Hard to say. All I know is that this fish was hot (and cheap) enough to try again, even if it wouldn’t readily be my first choice.
