On the Table
On Lispenard Street in Tribeca you’ll find one of New York’s best kept culinary secrets. Japanese restaurant Tataki specializes in fish: raw or cooked, in soups or served whole with head and tail, steamed or grilled, fried or sauteed. Kitchen chef Mei Lin and sushi chef James work their magic to feed hungry diners. Every day owner-manager Joe-e visits a dozen or so seafood markets in Chinatown, Little Italy and the Lower East Side searching for the city’s freshest fish. Featured here are a pair of Axe Butterfish from Florida. www.Ashford7.com
