CRAWFISH WIRE — Oysters are out and crawfish is in on Dai Due’s menu, starting tonight. The atypical boil starts with a briny broth "of preserved citrus, herbs, garlic and strong spices" before simmering the fresh crawfish. Gruet sparkling wines will still be half off, meaning $20 bottles and $4 glasses. [EaterWire]
