Sweet & Spicy Thighs

Sunday, my day to splurge and spend time in the kitchen. Having spent the day yesterday in NYC, K-Town, with a vegetarian, I have a craving for meat feast, of the asian style.
It so reminded me of the Honey Pig in Vegas, an order of pork belly, wagyu, and sides, all washed down with Kirin. Soo, tired of the Corona lockdown.
Back to the meal in progress, I’d rather do this on a grill and add a bit of smoke, but as I am in the apartment / cell, I’ll have to do this on the stove and in the oven. BAH, soo tired of this place.
I swear whence we move I am setting up the outdoor kitchen and getting back to real cooking.
