Man o man... Haters gonna hate! Momofuku did not disappoint... me. Don't build this place up too much before you go and you won't be disappointed either.
Dinner Escort and I went there for the Ramen Battle a couple weeks back... Momofuku v. A-Ok cuisine. It was a toss up to be honest. Everything was delicious. Servers are friendly, food was all prompt and rich in flavour and various textures. The Dan Dan Mein (though not actually a Ramen dish) was the perfect blend of spice, sweet, salt. Would certainly reorder that.
Upstairs in the Milk Bar, where if one is so inclined, you can get one of their masterfully crafted cookies held in lock down in a glass-enclosed, walk-in climate controlled environment.... which I guess basically classifies it as a fridge but it wasn't that cold and I like to be dramatic sometimes. Deal.
Atmosphere was relaxed, beer was cold, tall stools slightly uncomfortable... So grab a proper table, a Flying Monkey Amber Ale and get ready for a great meal.
