I've read about Momofuku from Time magazine years ago. I liked the article so much I actually bought a cook book. Now finally, I get the chance to be in one here in Toronto! The place is pretty sparse, the minimalist theme is beautiful but not the most comfortable to sit in. The staff is super friendly, I've been there twice and both times, I had servers who found time to chit chat despite the heavy traffic.
The food is everything Time described and more! This place really elevate the culinary arts, mixing texture, hardness, and of course all the tastes into masterpieces. I had the lamb (yes, it's worth the 45 minute wait), rock shrimp, kimchi one day and the noodle soup with pork shoulder and lamb buns another day. Both days were heavenly experiences.
My new all time favorite place to eat!
