The 10 Most Underrated Restaurants in Brooklyn
Legendary Brooklyn restaurateur Neil Ganic (of the former La Bouillabaisse and Bouillabaisse 126) has continued to make waves at his Union Street seafood shack, Petite Crevette, but it’s more for his antics (irately throwing live lobsters at paying customers!) than his food. There’re plenty of reasons to visit besides the possible floor show—namely, simply prepared, fresher than fresh fish, succulent fried oysters and clams, and creamy crab chowder. There’s also the complete and utter lack of pretention: think menus hand-scrawled on brown paper, a BYOB policy, and the chance of crustaceans being hurled at your head. Only in Brooklyn.
