"Why get a soup with cuts of pork like tenderloin or sparerib when you can get one filled with jowl, picnic shoulder, and stomach? Ariari, an East Village Korean spot from the Palpal team, tosses a ton of those pig parts into a bowl of slightly spicy, comforting clear broth, which is placed on a flame so it can be kept simmering on your table. A chive salad and rice come on the side, and we suggest mixing in some of the latter so you get congee-like bites. In addition to this soup, you’ll want to order the octopus sook-hwe and lamb-stuffed fried peppers, so bring friends." - neha talreja
