"Dare I say the sides at Kernel in Flatiron remind me of old-school Superiority Burger, with vegetables getting the chef treatment with multiple preparations, while hitting the savory-sweet, crunchy, and creamy notes. The restaurant shuttered for an overhaul last season and has reopened so it feels warmer (and there are seats). The broccoli rabe side layers roasted with steamed greens so as to tame its inherent bitterness, paired with gigante beans, roasted garlic, pickled fennel, and breadcrumbs, topped with red pepper romesco." - Eater Staff
