A few days ago I told you that I stopped by the 5 Spot to eat lunch and I noticed a sign announcing this pig roast (click). Well, after my shift at the Festa Italiana I made my way over to Queen Anne and waited anxiously for the pig to be ready.

Mmmmmm, pig! Anyway, we were there a little early so we settled in and waited in line for the delicious piggy to be cut up for all to be had. They put the 100lb. pig on the grill at 4AM and had it cooking until 4:50PM. It was wonderful, juicy, and the fat on it was tasty as hell. The best part was when we were making our way through the line Mindy asked for the cheeks and they let her have one of them…….AWESOME!
It wasn’t just pig either. They were serving up pinchos (ka-bobs), red beans, yellow rice, tostones, and just about everything else. See for yourself:
I had a great time and great food. I just wish people in Seattle were a lot louder…if we were in Puerto Rico people would have been dancing on the streets and the party would have started at 4Am……not at 5PM
Thanks 5 Spot, that was a great way to end the summer!
