"You’ve probably heard of Momofuku Noodle Bar. Maybe you even ate there 10 years ago when it was relatively new. If you haven’t been back in a while, you should know that it’s still very, very good. The pork buns are still a great way to start a meal, and the arctic char and fluke crudo should be on your table as well. And if you see the extra spicy pork ramen on special, order it. Just be aware that this place still gets busy and doesn’t take reservations. That said, trying to get a table on a Saturday night no longer feels like a waking nightmare (that smells good)." - bryan kim, hillary reinsberg
