Tsar Nicoulai Caviar Cafe

Description:

• Tsar Nicoulai is a wonderful little U-shaped 15-seat counter within the Ferry Building Marketplace where all sorts of caviar, champagne by the glass, and roe-related snacks are served to fans of fish roe. Drop by without reservations for the best American and imported caviars (served by the taste or the ounce), blinis hot off the griddle, caviar and champagne samplers, and specials like seafood salads and truffled scrambled eggs. If you haven't yet done so elsewhere, try the fun, colorful varieties of whitefish roe, which come in flavors of beet and saffron, ginger, wasabi, and truffle.
