|  | |  |   | | Momofuku Milk Bar officially opened today at 9AM and by the time I got there at half past there was already a sizable line. Being that it was the first hour of the first day things did move a bit slower than they doubtlessly will after a few weeks of service but the wait was not excruciating and di... Read More | | |  |   | | Let’s talk about ridiculous. That’s what you get when you throw a bunch of cooks and front of house friends together on a Sunday. Sundays are truly a day of rest for the restaurant world. It’s a time to catch up with friends, relax and eat. Every other month or so, we all ma...

I shouted something roughly resembling the above exclamation of crazed buggy-eyed surprise (I have no photographic evidence of the buggy eye, but trust me) when Alex finally appeared outsi...

Except that you'll never be able to appreciate the goodness of pucks of deep-fried pork fat, or tofu cubes deep-fried in pork fat, or pork laden with pork fat. I've accepted the fact... Read More | | |  |   | | Robyn's birthday dinner at Momomfuku Ssam acutally took place way back in mid-October, but sigh, you know how time fliiiieeees. One week turns into another, and before you know it, you're ten pounds heavier, and it's mid-November! Going back in time, Robyn invited a lucky bunch of us out for some ma... Read More | | |  |   | | Table of 8 I think I need an Momofuku intervention - or maybe I just need to move out my neighborhood so it's less convenient to get to. I'm less than a 10 minute walk away from either. Last week I went three days in a row. The first two times I went after I already had dinner elsewhere! Th...

The Momofuku restaurants (Momofuku Noodle Bar, Momofuku Ssam Bar, and the latest Momofuku Ko) and their omnipotent, do-no-wrong, GQ’s Chef of the Year creator Dav... Read More | | |  |   | | "I don't know how much meat I can eat." I said those words not actually being unaware of how much meat I could fit into my belly—the meat in question being the bo ssam at Momofuku Ssam Bar—but with the assumption that the amount I could comfortably digest would be pathetically meager.
