"One of our favorite places for a casual weeknight chicken dinner is also somewhere you can find excellent ceviche. This Essex Market vendor gives you the choice to get white fish or shrimp or both as proteins, and we recommend getting the mixto since choosing between those two seafoods is like to picking between Mario Kart and Diddy Kong Racing - it’s impossible. The mixto also has calamari strips mixed in, and if you get your bowl spicy (which you should), the leche de tigre will clear up your sinuses. We love the large chunks of choclo corn, corn nuts, and soft sweet potatoes that help balance out the whole thing." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, carlo mantuano
