Flex Mussels
174 E. 82nd St. (3rd Ave.), Manhattan
This restaurant bar is named for one mollusk but, at least the night we were there, is better for another. Namely: oysters (mussels were puny and not particularly interesting while oysters were diverse, outstanding, plump). And the chowder was damn good too. But that's not as important as the crowd, is it? Cleanly-dressed Age Appropriate couples, women, men sitting and standing at the front bar and adjacent counter, spending lots of money.
