"Creative small plates like deviled tea eggs, honey walnut shrimp toast, and smoked trout fried rice dominate the menu at this tiny spot on Cornelia Street. Dishes constantly come and go, but the mini flaky scallion puffs with scallion butter are always available because people come here specifically for that one item. The whole indoor space is filled with a single row of tables and a cushioned, pillow-filled banquette running along one wall, and in the back, there’s a charming fenced-in patio that’s perfect for a date." - bryan kim, neha talreja, will hartman, sonal shah
