Sea Restaurant in Brooklyn
Sea (MAP TO: 114 NORTH 6TH ST)
114 North 6th St
Brooklyn, NY
718-384-8850

This is the most insanely good restaurant I have ever been to. I have never has squid like this or shrimp as big as lobsters. I feel like the country mouse in the city. People look at me like I'm from the mountains. I guess I kind of am.

I drank this crazy drink a pomagranite mojito. It good was really but cost $12. Lukily, (e:hodown) was buying it ;) Here is the recipe

1/4 cup pomegranate juice
fresh pomegranite seeds
2 ounces white rum
1 tablespoon vanilla sugar, or to taste, recipe follows
4 ounces club soda
Cracked ice
6 sprigs fresh mint

In a cocktail shaker, combine all ingredients except the mint and shake well. Mull the mint in the bottom of a cocktail glass. Strain the pomegranate mixture into the glass with the mulled mint, and serve.

Vanilla Sugar:
1 vanilla beans, split in 1/2 lengthwise and crosswise
4 cups granulated sugar

In a large container with an airtight closure, place 1/2 of the sugar. Add the bean quarters and cover with the remaining 2 cups of sugar. Close tightly. Place in a cool, dark place. Twice a day shake the container to distribute the vanilla essence. Continue the process for at least 1 week and up to 3 weeks. Replace the sugar as it is used.

Who would have though?
Standing at the place of the former world trade center, looking into the giant hole in the ground was as freaky as I imagined it. It is a regular train station now.
