Pig Island
Happy 1st Birthday Veritasty!! One year ago, our first foodventure was to Pig Island on Governor's Island. The lovely folks at Food Karma have organized this great event for a few years now and we were thrilled and honored to be a part of it. It was a beautiful day on Governor's Island and every Food Karma event should be blessed with such nice weather. First up was Ovelia's stall. They had a couple of spits rolling meat that would become pulled pork with apple coleslaw on a pita triangle. While we were there, they were also cooking up some loukaniko, a traditional Greek sausage. They looked amazing, sizzling in the pan, studded with leeks and orange zest. Next up was one of the highlights of the afternoon: Edi and the Wolf. The offering was grilled pork belly on top of chopped peaches and a bed of arugula. This little dish was delicious: crisp pork skin (always a plus), fatty pork belly...
