Photos from Cochon 555. A fun event, there were many pork-snacks to be had. It’s tough to beat Guy Wong’s tonkotsu ramen – so satisfying. The craziest/best bite to me was Ryan Smith’s bologna soup dumpling (as in, the wrapper was made of pork). They weren’t even sure it would work until just before the event, and that’s one thing that’s cool about these types of events – risk taking and creativity. And pork in general, it really is a magical animal. I hope Cochon returns next year and gains a little more traction. If it could be a month later or so, the weather could allow them to plan for a space at least partly outdoors, which would be great. A similar to setup to the Tomato Festival on the Westside would be killer.
