Barbecuing at Miga
Posted by Foobooz on October 21st, 2009

Adam Erace manages to incorporate “whorebath” into his largely positive review of Miga, the smokeless Korean barbecue on 15th Street.
The menu describes belly as “unseasoned,” which you should read as “bland.” But it’s okay, really, as the salt-and-peppered sesame oil and intensely savory Korean bean paste take care of that. You’re meant to dip each piece of pork before bundling them in frilly red leaf lettuce cups with sliced garlic and chilies. Dip, wrap. Dip, wrap. United, the ingredients in this leafy Korean burrito brought real balance. Fresh and rich flavors, working in tandem, totally worth the wait.

the pork belly is traditionally unseasoned- nothing but pristine pork. you add the flavor afterwards with the sesame oil/salt combo. all that matters is the flavor it has when it gets to your mouth, right?
