Citi Field Food: Lobster Roll and Clam Chowder Coda

Yesterday’s omnibus stadium food preview made mention of the rumored Untitled Dave Pasternack Seafood Project at Citi Field. It’s long been known that the Esca chef wanted to explore a fish and chips concept, but it wasn’t until recently that the project was actually happening. Today the news comes (via Eater) that the Long Island born chef will open a lobster roll, fish sandwich, and clam chowder station called (what else) Catch of the Day at the Taste of the City food court, the same concessions area where Shake Shack is located. The Mets’ website calls Catch of the Day “a Long Island themed seafood stand;” let’s hope that means Pasternack adds some fried belly clams to the menu a la Nassau County’s Bigelow’s.
