I'd heard a lot about the noodle house before going, and located in the Shangri-La Hotel, I expected high quality food and service. Though I didn't leave with a bad taste in my mouth (in regards to the food or the service), I find myself forgetting I went here. Which may even be worse.
A last minute decision to visit, my boyfriend and I visited the restaurant for lunch. We ordered the pork buns for appetizers, and I tried the momofuku ramen. The pork buns were good, but growing up in Markham and eating copious amounts of Chinese food all my life, it was nothing special.
The ramen was just okay. A bit too salty for my preference and the dish came out a bit too quickly to have, or seem to have been prepared without much thought or care. While I know that soup will have been pre-made, the dish did seem slopped together and tasted so.
A bit of a disappointing experience, Momofuku is not a repeat for me.
