    Pork Belly as Health Food

    Jonathan Gold takes us to Koreatown for pork belly. At Palsaik Samgyupsal Korean BBQ, pork belly is considered health food -- good for your complexion and your liver. You can order pork belly in one of eight different marinades including wine and herbs, curry, miso and Korean chili paste.
