The 15 Best Restaurants & Bars At Essex Market - New York - The Infatuation
"Seafood spot Essex Pearl is one of the few sit-down restaurants in the market. And their Southeast Asian menu, featuring basically everything from the ocean, is a good move for a weeknight catch-up with a friend. Sit at the long winding bar, and go for dishes like prawn or Cambodian pork belly skewers, a generous portion of little neck clams bathing in nuoc cham, and a fried dorade that’s one of the best whole fishes we’ve had recently. Despite being in a glorified food hall, the dining area still feels busy but also slightly secluded—which makes it ideal for a date at the bar or a small group dinner where you can pick out a whole lobster or Dungeness crab from the tank and have a lively seafood feast." - Carlo Mantuano
