Hole in the Wall

I  find myself talking more and more about Luke’s these days, and realize that I only wrote a few sentences about them in a tidbit without including any pictures. Also, I keep getting calls from people this past week asking for its location. So here I am writing a proper post on Luke’s Lobster! Easily inspired! A good thing?

 The ever so popular pork buns made popular by David Chang of the Momofuku line, come a tiny shop in LES whose menu only serves these sandwiches.

I went to dinner with my possibly new #1 eating partner. It was at Boka, the restaurant version of Bon Chon (the chicken wing place). We ordered incredible amounts of food and for the first time, I wasn’t the one doing the damage on ordering excessively! In addition, we went to Luke’s Lobster for a snack right before dinner when we were on the way to the restaurant. Again, her idea! As a result, I am considering placing this eating partner on the top of my list. (Maybe not #1 but definitely have room for competition) I adore you for being so awesome! (yes, a cheesy shoutout) BTW- that lobster roll was TASTY AS HELL. I plan on going back to try the crab and shrimp roll and the empress crab claws. Read their story in the link above; they bring the lobster back from Maine. You get 4 ounces of lobster meat from 5 or 6 lobster claws. YUmmMmmm!

The leftovers that came home with me.

We also had watermelon soju at Boka so this doesn’t seem bad for breakfast food. The presentation was really cool. It was a whole baby watermelon filled with soju.

It is because of this awesome hole in the wall pizza place that makes me turn away from eating at another pizzeria ever again. Why waste the calories when I know this place is soooooo good?!?!?!?
