It's smoky, juice, tender, thick without being touch, oh-so-fatty, just the slightest bit charred on the edges, and amazing. I had sunny-side up eggs in a skillet with toast and was wholly unprepared to the sheer AWESOME of this bacon. Seriously! They make it fresh, in-house. You can't get it anywhere else. I think they must put heroin inside.
Bacon, food of the gods. The other only bacon that measures up is at Balthazar for their brunch. Or the bacon dish at Gramercy Tavern, but that's kind of a different class of bacon. Unless someone out there knows of a better bacon dish!
But, really, that's a bacon dish at dinner, and what I had at Cookshop was a perfect brunch bacon accompaniment.
Mmmmmmmmmmm.
Bacon.

Screw missing SF-style burritos in NYC, I've got ssams.
A ssam is
a Korean wrap that's essentially an Asian burrito.
A ssam contains delicious Berkshire pork, rice, edamame, onions, pickled shiitakes, and kimchi, all crammed into a delicious wrapper.
Momofuku only serves them from noon to 4PM each day and Dan and stuffed ourselves silly at lunch today, bringing home leftovers for later. My God.
And! And! The proprietors of Momofuku are opening up a ssam bar later on this year. I hope they have delivery.
