Picks by Condé Nast Traveler in New York
3 places Condé Nast Traveler went to in New York — what they said, and what to watch out for.
- Fish Cheeks — Condé Nast Traveler
He declared the wings 'an elevated version of Chinese takeout wings' and the best wings in New York, called the branzino steamed in a ginger-lime-chili-fish sauce broth one of the best bites of fish of his life, and described the crab fried rice topped with two sauces as 'the best bite I've had in years.'
Heads up: It's a family-style setup, so it's best to order with a group so you can share several dishes. - JOJI BOX — Condé Nast Traveler
He said the sweetness and saltiness of the snow crab and cucumber made for a perfect bite, called the grilled kinki 'a dish with nowhere to hide,' meaning the ingredients themselves have to be top-notch, and raved that the hojicha ice cream topped with truffle was 'a flavor you can't get anywhere else in the world.'
Heads up: It's tucked away inside a train station, so it's easy to walk right past if you don't know exactly where to look. - Tatiana by Kwame Onwuachi — Condé Nast Traveler
The chef himself named it his favorite restaurant in New York.
Heads up: Reservations are so hard to get that he jokes at the end of the video he couldn't get a table.
