Whole Hog 2011

Adam and I recently pigged out at Craigie on Main's Whole Hog special dinner. Everything was incredibly delicious, even the pig themed non vegetarian desserts were amazing. We may have consumed several days worth of calories in one sitting, but it was worth it. Instead of a comprehensive and exhaustive account of every pig themed dish, I'm going to highlight my favorites.

Menu for the night!

The decor was all pig themed, pig balloons, servers wearing pig snouts and pig ears.

First course, an assortment of pig charcuterie. The little brown cute, breaded deep fried lard. Yum, but definitely not healthy.

We both got the chili rubbed ribs, meat was fork tender and fell right off the bone. Possibly my favorite dish of the night.

Pork Belly!!! Enough said.
