I didn't have the opportunity to try the Momofuku in NY when I was in town...so idk how this Momofuku compares...but if you're staying at the Cosmo and you're hungover-Momofuku's Ramen is a lifesaver. Service is awesome and the only reason I gave them 4 stars instead of 5, is because they don't have any Ramen with a Hearty Broth (I know it's not a strict ramen joint--but I was just in for lunch and hungover). For apps try the Shishito Peppers and Spicy Cucumber- light, delicious but filling.
