Serious Eats: New York
The Worst Seafood Display Ever? Or the Most Brilliant? You Decide
Longtime SE reader Jeff S. alerts us to an "awful seafood display" he snapped a picture of at the Whole Foods on Houston Street in New York City—the one where they filmed parts of Top Chef this season.
Jeff calls it awful; I call it brilliant. After all, it's a dog(fish) eat dog(fish)* world out there. You have to wonder if the fishmonger was crafting a subtle tableaux that illustrates evolution in action or if he or she was just having fun.
Jeff was kind enough to bury photo as link-text in his blog post about it, but we're more brazen and show just part of it here. Click through to see the entire thing. Hope you've eaten already!
*Yes, I know it's a monkfish, not a dogfish. Poetic license invoked.
