| - Tonight, my husband and I enjoyed ourselves with close friends for the pig's head special. Initially, you might say "eww!", but it's anything but. Sure, it's the head of a pig, but talk about a culinary adventure.
The chef comes out and cuts it for you; you can choose what parts of the head you will/won't eat. In essence, it's no different than BBQ pork. It's tender bc they soak it in brine for 2 days; they cook it for 6 hrs.
You'll get sides of pulled pork, cheddar biscuits, potato salad, and kimchee style brussel sprouts. If you want more sides, they give you more. We had a party of 8 people, but there was definitely enough food to feed at least 12 people. The portions were ample. The brussel sprouts were really good, but the potato salad had a bit too much dill.
The service was first class, but we were the only people there on a Sunday night. If you want to try the pig's head, and you should!, you'll need at least 6 folks and a reservation 7 days in advance. It's $180 for 6, and only $10/extra person. It's reasonable for the quality of food you'll enjoy.
