The Best Dishes We Ate at New Restaurants in 2024 | Bon Appétit
"Penny, the second restaurant from chef Joshua Pinsky and Chase Sinzer of Claud—located right below—is a land ruled by ice. It’s everywhere in the jewel box of a seafood restaurant: Diners dig into pebble-ice-lined trays studded with market-fresh periwinkle snails, Jonah crab salad, live scallops, and more, while shucked oysters and plump mussels are plucked from orderly shelves behind the handsome marble counter. On a tight menu where flame and heat are in short supply, one of the highlights is the whole lobster, poached, segmented, and presented in its shell, doused in an herbaceous, earthy brown butter that pools at the bottom of the bowl. The literal warmth is downright luxurious in a restaurant that doesn’t lack simple opulence." - ByThe Bon Appétit Staff & Contributors
