Bite Me: Food That Looks Good Enough to Eat

May Street Cafe's Bone in Pork Chop
What's in it? Pork chop is brined in a Carribean marinade for 24 hours then hand rubbed with our own blend of 5 peppercorn and coarse salt, dried herbs from May Street garden is drizzled with olive oil and grilled to a suggested tempature of medium rare and topped with a melody of roasted pineapple, tomatillo, red pepper salsa and the chop is rested atop our house yucca and chipotle potato mash surrounded by sautéed baby organic carrots, green beans and chayote with shallots.
Executive Chef Mario Santiago says: "Borsa de pero por favor (doggy bag please). There's no way the dog's getting this, it's for me!"
Suggested Pairing: 2008 Alta Vista Premium Malbec
How much is it? $24
May Street Cafe, 1146 W Cermak, 312-421-4442
