Sandwich No. 81: Crispy Pork Sandwich at Bark Hot Dogs

Bark Hot Dogs is a quaint hot dog joint in Park Slope, just off the 4 train stop at Bergen Street.  All of the servers were extremely friendly, and the smells emanating from the place were fantastic.  I actually ordered both the sandwich and two orders of cheddar cheese fries for the office, because who can go wrong with cheddar cheese fries, right?  As it turned out, they were excellent, especially the cheese, which was rich, creamy, and extremely fresh tasting.  However, because I got it to go, they actually put the cheese in a small container and turned it into a dipping sauce instead of pouring it over the fries.  Still very good, but really not the same thing, right?  Anyways, the sandwich:


Not the best picture, I know.  While the whole place was somewhat overpriced (this sandwich was pretty small, and was $8.50), the quality level was super high.  The pork was beautifully cooked; it was tender and juicy even while being crispy on the outside.  The condiments, mainly pickles and slaw, were perfect complements to the sandwich, and for once, a place actually got the amount of condiments just right; they didn't overwhelm the sandwich at all, but added great texture and taste.

Bark is a place I would like to go back to, especially to try their hot dogs, which I've heard are excellent. If this sandwich is any indication, I'm sure everything there is very good.  4.0 for the sandwich.
