"Flip straight to the back of the menu at Ocean Grill & Bar in Chinatown. That's where you’ll find a whole section of delicious Vietnamese seafood dishes that'll make you want to give each clam a pat on the back, oysters with scallion oil and crispy onions a round of applause, and crawfish in rich garlic butter a key to the city. Oh, and there’s also 14 different preparations of snails, too. Just be ready to do some work—digging into snail shells takes some finesse, patience, and being OK with drops of tamarind sauce or spicy lemongrass broth on your shirt." - veda kilaru
