Overlook the blah-trendy Meatpacking District location: quail-egg shooters to open your meal is one way to know that this is one serious dining destination; another is the presence of Zak Pelaccio, star chef from Chickenbone Cafe and 5 Ninth. This tiny, spare Malaysian eatery, between sceney Gansevoort and Little West 12th Streets, always has its few indoor and outdoor tables and bar packed with foodies, reveling in the rare-as-Loch-Ness Southeast Asian specialities of (mostly) seafood, from the chili Dungeoness crab and fatty duck to jalan alor chicken wings and skate panggang.
