The Best Seafood Towers In NYC - New York - The Infatuation
"Ice Box Height: 3 inches. Price: $39, which includes 2 oysters, 2 shrimp, 2 clams, 2 mussels, 1 scallop. At about three inches tall, Penny’s Ice Box isn't technically a tower at all. Haven't you heard of quiet luxury? At this East Village seafood counter, each Ice Box comes with shellfish so carefully curated that—according to one chef—they spent months dialing in on their shrimp selection. That shrimp is red Argentinian, and particularly swoony with garlic aioli. There’s a $98 Ice Box Plus with fancier things like crab and periwinkles, but the seafood is high-quality enough that even the basic version turns a weeknight into something special. Pair with the sesame brioche and a glass of wine from their extensive cellar after a long day at work." - molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, neha talreja, will hartman, kym backer, sonal shah
