General info: 

This is claimed to be one of the best restaurants in NY. The referees of Michelin thought so and after that the general public thinks so too. The food here is great, no doubt. “Things had been hectic ever since the Michelin guide bestowed an unexpected two stars (“excellent cooking, worth a detour”) on the little Boerum Hill kitchen, thereby transforming it, more or less overnight, from a local cult favorite into one of the most talked-about restaurants in the city.”

What dish to pick? Try these: brandade, the lobster, the truffle ravioli, and, of course, the pork.
The reservations here can be impossible-to-obtain during dinner times... reserve early in advance.
