These are our favorite roast pork buns and shumai. No lie, we get a box at a time.
This was one of our first meals together, and I (Ben) felt so at home. I'll forever remember the crispy pan fried seafood noodles and crab w/ black bean sauce.
We lived across the street here in Ben's tiny studio for a couple years before Yeri realized he had never eaten there. They once let us take our cocktail glasses back to our place in between courses.
Yeri lived at this intersection since 2014, when this bodega was only an abandoned drugstore. Need a chopped cheese? This is the spot. Best bodega ever.
If you want to taste the wedding cake before the big day, here's your chance! We won't tell you which one though. Only one way to find out...
We drove past this place hundreds of times before finally walking in. Think about all of the possibly bowls of addicting congee we missed out on!!
This store was also across the street from our studio apartment, so Ben would sometimes bring a hot lunch over Yeri during her shifts. Lemon once escaped and ran straight back to our front door.
Quite possibly the only vegan restaurant we'll ever recommend to anyone. We used to have brunch here pretty often, back when Yeri lived two blocks away.
Our favorite spot to stop at before crossing the Williamsburg Bridge back home. A peroni and two slices seated at the front table is our little slice of happiness.
Our first meal when we moved in together. This. Nothing like biting into a piece of fatty pork belly on the floor of an empty apartment.
This snack is SO us. Spicy, tingly, and salty duck feet, pig skin, tripe, and more!! Would not recommend eating while driving.
Tepango was our shepherd through the pandemic winter of 2020-2021. With each plate of lengua, we found our way through the piles of snow that year.
Quite possibly the best place to duck into on a biting-cold winter day. Get the Salo; they're tiny pieces of lard on cripsy, mustard-laced crackers. Also - vodka flight.
This is where Ben first met Minsoo. In other words, this marks the spot that Minsoo began his years of being the third wheel.
