Pork freaks convene at Matyson this week (and the latest on Roundeye Noodle)

Fresh off he and partner Shawn Darragh's successful (and reasonably porky) Roundeye Noodle pop-up, Matyson chef Ben Puchowitz is running a five-course, pig-based tasting at his restaurant (37 S. 19th St.) from today through Thursday. He's rocking pork rillettes; crispy pig tails with apple/cuke kimchi and Korean chili sauce; pork and clams in a miso/sake broth; choucroute with housemade sausage; and blood orange tart for dessert, all for $45.

Oh, and the word on Roundeye, which we also mentioned in the Jan. 30 edition of Notes from the Weekend — Darragh tells Meal Ticket that they're currently meeting with a handful of potential investors, and that they have a second pop-up event planned for Matyson at the end of this month. There's also talk of a separate takeout-based pop-up, which might be a friendly alternative to those who struck out in line the first time around.
