My last meal in NYC before shipping out to Chicago was at DBGB. My mom had flown out to help me move, and I wanted her to try both the pig's head terrine and the pig's foot and the blood sausage. French food does not sound good in English.
I chronicled the boudin and the pied de cochon in this post, and I've tried the fromage de tête at Bar Boulud, but it was awesome having all three in one sitting. I got a call from DBGB a few weeks ago asking for my address info, since they wanted contact details for their regular customers. It made my day that I managed to get into regular customer land. I'm back in New York for a couple of days in December, and I've already been dreaming about repeating this last meal. A couple of oysters might be nice too.

i feel like i've heard awesome things about this place so many times - why have i not gone yet? it's going to the top of the list. that picture is making me drool.
Yes, you must go. Though admittedly, a good chunk of why I loved it was because it was 5 minutes away from my New York apartment. The food is solid. Not everything will knock your socks off, but if you love boudin and offal, there are some lovely items on the menu.
