Grand Central Oyster Bar and Restaurant
Maatjes herring ($6.25) — "maiden" fish that never spawned before being netted in the Netherlands, in season only for a few weeks each June — are firm-fleshed, and just oily enough to go down easy. Though the traditional approach involves taking the fish by the tail, turning your mouth skyward, and eating it in one gulp, at the Oyster Bar's lunch counter, knife and fork served me just fine. Preceded by bitterballen (three for $2.50), thin-crusted deep-fried meatballs paired with a heady mustard.
