And at Terrance Brennan's Seafood & Chop House, also in New York City, breakfast is enlivened by the table-side preparation of steel...
...with juicy crabmeat, then cooked to a perfectly tender consistency and served atop a fresh mesclun greens. The crab cakes, one of the restaurant’s most popular dishes, eschewed fancy seasonings in favor of tons of fresh crabmeat and a small amount of breadcrumbs. The accompanying seasoned roast potatoes and spinach made for a nice change from french fries. The spartan dessert menu features only three options—key lime pie, cheesecake and ice cream...
