Num Pang

Num Pang has long been on our list of places to check out, today the timeliness of a nearby meeting resulted in a long over due visit. I thought for certain a 15 minute subway back to the office and a flurry of calls before finally sitting down to lunch would result in a less than delicious sandwich but I was dead wrong. The five spice pork belly was lush and intense and the bread just right. It was messy but not too messy and bits of spiciness and vinegar tartness shone through. We're going to have to find more reasons to head back to Union Square. And soon.
