6.6 Forkelo score Early ranking

  • bacon jam
  • sourdough bread
  • tender beef

Double roast beef, Swiss and bacon jam on the deli's own sourdough, with warm au jus to dip. Sweeter than a plain dip, and the loaf holds up.

How this ranking works.

Every score is built from evidence about the specific dish: how often locals recommend it, how strongly, how recently, and whether independent sources agree. A restaurant's overall star rating is never converted into a dish score.

Quality and confidence are reported separately. A dish two people loved can score high, but it is marked early ranking until more evidence backs it up. The whole calculation — every constant, and three dishes worked through line by line — is written out on the methodology page.
