Plattypants crushes Oceana today, saying the lauded seafood palace lost its way after a move from a townhouse to a midtown airplane hangar. He gives it one star: "The original, Michelin-starred Oceana was a showplace for high-wire seafood cooking of the most effete kind...that approach has been scrapped in favor of a more familiar, user-friendly, pan-globalist style...Will this slightly uneven food translate into Michelin stars for the grandiose new Oceana 2.0? Possibly not. But Michelin stars are less important these days than profits..." [NYM]
