April Bloomfield has done it again. She has opened up a true home run on the...Upper West Side! That's right, Chef April Bloomfield is a true magician, and has done the impossible- given me a reason to head to the UWS.

White Gold Butchers is a butcher shop with amazing food. I stopped in for lunch this past week and was a blown away. You are going to love this place!

You must order the Chopped Cheese sandwich with jalapeño and pickles. It's like a burger, and it's like #fuckingawesome. #YesPlease

Another unexpected hit, was their Hot Dog. I, in fact, am not a fan of hot dogs, but the hot dog at White Gold Butchers is a different ball game. It's a masterpiece. Served with kimchie and mayonnaise, and with the perfect smokiness, it's the best hot dog in NYC. I loved it.

Also, the beef and red wine pasty is quite excellent too. White Gold Butchers is a special place. A destination joint on the Upper West Side. Magic on the UWS? It does exist!
