April 6, 2006 — Great New England-style oyster bars have a way of multiplying in NYC. First, Pearl Oyster bar spawned Mary’s Fish Camp (after the original partners split), and then Mary Redding, along with artner Derek Dos Anjos, headed to the Slope to open Brooklyn Fish Camp–and you followed. This offshoot’s menu sticks with classic fare: pristine Malpeque oysters; Canadian steamers; lobster rolls with the perfect proportion of mayo to crustacean (and addictive matchstick fries); plus whole market fish served grilled or fried. The bucolic spot even boasts backyard seating. Great surf deserves this kind of turf. 162 Fifth Avenue between DeGraw and Douglass Streets; 718-783-3264.
