Ever since Philadelphia's Tony Luke's shuttered its outpost in Hell's Kitchen, the New York City food scene has been bereft for the disappearance of the restaurant's sublime Roasted Pork Sandwiches (pictured above with the must-do additions of Chili Flake-specked Broccoli Rabe and Sharp Provolone).
But word on the street is that the Big Apple will not have to mourn the loss for long. Looks like Chef Sara Jenkins is planning an East Village Porchetta Sandwich shop that is certain to generate loads of foodie buzz and long lines out the door. And, I'm sure I'll be one of those hungry souls lining up to try this gifted chef's porcine wares.
Name, opening date and exact location are still under wraps.
