Monday night was the first, of hopefully many, goodbye dinners. In
attendance were Foster, Heather and Aaron, Liz, Ed, and Melissa - all hungry for 5 pounds of
tasty Bo
Ssam goodness (slow-roasted pork butt, wrapped in
bib lettuce, with oysters, topped with
kimchee and scallion sauces).
Dinner began slowly, with the hipster waitstaff pretending that our party of 8 was invisible. Finally, we were offered drinks and allowed to order our appetizers, which were rather good, (especially the sweetbreads). Then the Bo
Ssam was brought out, pipping hot, with glistening crispy skin.
Much pork was consumed, many bottles of wine were drunk (including a wine made by a
former Assistant Dean of our
alma mater, St. John's college). It was a great night all around, even with some squabbling over the bill.
