"Vernick Fish in Center City takes seafood as seriously as a man going through a midlife crisis takes smudges on his Porsche. So we’d be a little surprised—and frankly, offended—if they didn’t have a stunning selection of oysters. Thankfully for us and you, they do. There are usually six on the menu, ranging from small to large, and the large look like they swallowed three of the tiny ones. Kick off a marathon of flawless crudo and grilled sea bass with a dozen oysters and their zesty mignonette. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve. New cardmembers get $300 in annual dining statement credits." - candis mclean
