  • If the only rating criteria (or the only things you care about) are location, interior design, and ambience, Momofuku Noodle Bar would unquestionably be one of the more memorable restaurants in Toronto. But in the real world, where all you really care about is how good the food taste, Momofuku will provide you with an underwhelming and uneventful dining experience. Drawn by the reputation of David Chang, my friend and I decided to try this place out after work. The service was prompt, but also a bit too quick and impersonal. Given the amount of people that were waiting at the door I don't blame them. However, the waiters seemed to be a bit disorganized. Three different waiters came and repeated the same special of the night to us. They weren't the friendliest bunch either, giving us the impression that they just want us to devour our food and clear the table. We ordered the pork buns, onigiri and ramen noodles. The pork buns were the best thing we had that night, the pork belly was very nicely done, the texture was amazing and the hoisin sauce added a great flavour to it. The onigiri (Japanese rice balls) was delicious also, for $5 you get three onigiri in a bowl, mixed with sea weed, sesame seeds and some sort of sweet & sour sauce. Now, the main course is what we thought would blow us away: the Momofuku ramen. Unfortunately, it was wildly disappointing. The broth wasn't nearly as flavorful as I expected. In fact it was a bit too salty for my taste. The egg was not fully cooked, which was a letdown for me. The fish cake and the noodles tasted like the average ones you can buy from any Asian grocery store, nothing special there. It felt more like a glorified version of instant noodle, the kind that you would make when you feel lazy, by just throwing in egg, sea weed, veggies, fish cakes, etc. To be fair, this was my first time dining at Momofuku noodle bar, I am sure they have other dishes more deserving of its reputation. Until I try them out next time, it won't get higher than a 3 star.
