Piglet & Co
5-Course Pan-Asian Pleasures Tasting Event
Opened at the very outset of 2023, this Mission District eatery that specializes in Asian comfort food (and who amongst us couldn’t use some comfort these days?) has appeared on Eater’s List of “Best New Restaurants in America” and Thrillist’s List of “Best Restaurants in San Francisco.” For years, Chef Chris Yang and his partner Marcelle Gonzales Yang have popped up around the Bay Area serving food inspired by both Taiwanese night markets and their experiences living and eating in places including Bali, Hawai’i, and Singapore. Here, at Piglet & Co, they are delighting diners with such dishes as honey walnut shrimp and pork toast, a glorious version of congee, BBQ pork ribs with miso glaze, charred Savoy cabbage, and doubanjiang-glazed cauliflower. “Piglet & Co takes Asian comfort food to the next level,” raves Axios, while Eater calls it “a destination.” Well, it’s our destination, to be sure, and we look forward to our evening here. Hope you can join us!
