| - Finally a Momofuku in the West(ish) side! I'm obsessed with their NYC locations and was looking forward to being reunited with my beloved pork bunz. I've been hearing about David Chang's humble beginnings, so it's really impressive to see how far he has come.
The interior is gorgeous and the views are even better! From the outside, it looks like a small restaurant. Once you walk inside, a huge dining space opens up and you get a beautiful view of the strip.
Our group decided to order some apps, dishes and split a bo ssäm. Sadly, my pork bunz were poorly put together and the meat didn't have that melt-in-your-mouth tenderness like how I remembered in NYC. Also, not cool that our server never brought out ssäm sauce for us.
Our bo ssäm order consisted of a slow-roasted pork shoulder accompanied with oysters, rice, bibb lettuce, kimchi and sauces. It's basically ribs and rice wrapped in lettuce. It was a lot of pork for four people, so I'd suggest splitting it with a bigger group, unless you plan on ordering bo ssäm only.
Pro Tip: Make reservations in advance.
