"Shellfish is the star at this new Chinese bistro — opened in spring 2018 by owners Tina Chen, Yang Liu, and chef Zac Zhang — where crawfish, crab, and shrimp come doused in a choice of six sauces. The most popular of them is “13 flavors,” an umami-rich blend of clove, star anise, angelica dahurica, nutmeg, ginger, fennel, black cardamom, Sichuan peppercorn, dried tangerine peel, cinnamon, and galangal. Throw on a bib and get a pound for seafood feast, but also don’t miss the slew of skewers, typically a street food." - Serena Dai, Stefanie Tuder
