Wok-seared cabbage at Spy C, my favorite NYC rendition of this simple and underappreciated dish. Also shown: bite-sized segments of loofah capped with minced garlic (special); slow-simmered fish with chiles and soft tofu; lotus roots; and an exquisitely slippery bowl of pickled string beans, minced pork, and mung bean noodles.
