A Fish and Some Chips at Do or Dine
Heads turn as this yellowtail snapper, sporting a “roehawk” of yuzu-steeped flying fish eggs and propped upright as if swimming through a sea of fries, passes through the dining room. The lightly sweet and delicate meat is topped with a citrusy yuzu-shallot relish, and sprinkled with black sesame seeds, fish sauce and diced jalapeño for heat. The flaky fish and tangy sauce are ace companions for the bed of twice-fried, skin-on russets that lie beneath. 1108 Bedford Ave between Lexington Ave and Quincy St, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn (718-684-2290). $20.—Jasmine Moy
