Duckfat. Is. Just. Panini. And. Fries. It's not worth an hour plus wait. It's good, but it's decidedly a tourist trap. When I go I get the tomato bisque (with grilled cheese croutons!) and the salad of the day. It's the best tomato soup I've ever had.

Miyake is one of the best Japanese restaurants I've been to.

Fore Street is good but costs 30% more than it should for what it is. Street & Co (owned by the same people) was unmemorable. I know I've been but don't remember it.

Central Provisions is delightful. Check out brunch on weekends for still-great food and less of a wait.

If you want solid lobster rolls without the expense and wait of Eventide, check out High Roller.
