Eighty One serves a wild striped bass with strips of skin that are "so crunchy and rich they seem to be emulating pork rinds." [Bruni, NYT]
The sliced veal strip is "as good as you'll find" at Olana, and the rabbit is a "dissertation on the pleasures of deep fried crunchiness" at Mia Dona. [Platt, NYM]
The mole poblano at La Estrellita 3 has a "radiant taste of chocolate, with barely a trace of sweetness." [Sietsema, VV]
The white borscht at Polish G.I. Delicatessen, and the samosa with chickpeas at Punjab, are two East Village treats. [Meehan, NYT]
Pig wings and eel fritters are what to get at Anita Lo's Bar Q. [Sutton, Bloomberg]
Baby cuttlefish skewers are one of the few good things about Ago. [Freeman, NYDN]
A reengineered trout almandine is notable at The Harrison. [Cheshes, TONY]
