Amen for the crudo at Anella.
Fork in the Road says an astonishing dish has to be “beautiful to look at, innovative within its canon, and perfectly executed. It has to surprise as well as satisfy.” In other words, a lot of spicy, daring, hard-to-pronounce plates of food (plus a piece of balsamic pie). The most mind-blowing? Braised Whole Fish Filet With Soy Bean Sprouts in Roasted Chili Spiced Broth at Land of Plenty, a newcomer on the Upper East Side. [Fork in the Road/VV]
