Iberian Pig

Pork Cheek Tacos. Super crispy taco shells filled with melt-in-your-mouth soft braised pork cheeks topped with a generous amount of gooey avocado, corn, cilantro, peppers. Yum! Oh, and the Iberian Pig serves jamon iberico and jamon iberico de bellota, too! I am such a sucker for that delicious nutty complex-flavored ham cured from meat from those acorn-fed free-range Spanish pigs. I still think Chef Mateo in New York City serves up the best Pata Negra on this side of the Atlantic Ocean. But hey, I'm in Atlanta now, so I'm grateful that the Iberian Pig does a damn good job as a stand-in for my favorite East Village wine and jamon/tapas bar.
