today i got away from new york without really getting away. i took the subway to the last stop on the 6 (pelham bay park) and biked to city island, had lunch and then explored pelham bay park a little. it's another world out there.
apparently, THE place to go eat seafood on city island is Johnny's Reef Restaurant. it's a huge establishment that seems to be a locals' favorite.
there are lots of seafood restaurants on the main strip on city island but none were as busy as Johnny's. i had the fried flounder and scallops and both were fresh and good. it's no le bernadin, but if you like a big plate of fried seafood every once in a while, you can get your fix here. if i had any more space in my stomach, i would've gone for the raw bar. oh well. next time...
