NYC FOODIE AMAZING MEAL OF THE WEEK: BO SSAM LUNCH FROM MOMOFUKU SSAM

I like big butts and I cannot lie; pork butt, which is actually the shoulder of the pig. I love me that butt. 

If you never had the Bo Ssam from Momofuku Ssam, you should. It's whole slow cooked pork shoulder, a dozen oysters, white rice, bibb lettuce, ssäm jiang (korean bbq sauce), kimchi and ginger scallion sauce. The dish is essentially pork and condiments wrapped in lettuce, but it's out of this world. It is mind-blowing and amazing. It costs $200, so you should go with around 8 people as I did last week, and it turns out to be a fabulous deal! 

The meat is so tender, wonderful, and delicious, your taste buds will scream in a frenzy of wonder and enjoyment. There is a lot of meat on the butt, so come hungry. Add an oyster to your bite, and it will take you across culinary boundaries you have never dreamed possible. 

Here is the food porn, but go for yourself if you have the chance; not only is it worth it, it'll change your life.
