Some friends who were visiting DC and I went to see a former colleague who lives in Frederick, and she took us straight to Isabella's. The asparagus fries were pretty greasy, but then I guess that's the point of fries. Nice crunch, though. Wow, Isabella’s is the pride of Frederick!

I am a huge fan of asparagus--to the extent that I am often served asparagus when I dine at the homes of family and friends.

The ends stuck in the aioli end up soggy and overwhelmed by too much of the spicy sauce. The asparagus fries are tasty, yes, but I’m not a fan of the champagne glass presentation.
