"Hong Kong-style clay pot cooking — where crispy pieces of rice line the bowl — is the sole focus of Clay Pot, a counter-seating spot from first-time restaurateur Alexander Yip that opened in February 2018. Each one starts at $12 and comes topped with a choice of proteins, including beef, chicken, eel, veggies, and baby shrimp. Besides rice, they also come with egg, spinach, tofu, and corn." - Serena Dai, Stefanie Tuder
