More momo


Just an FYI, if you check out Momofuku Ssam Bar in New York (see May 7 "I Love New York" post) make sure you go for dinner or a late night nosh.


My buddy Katie - who loved the place at night - just took her daughter for a lunch visit and said the vibe was completely different: "You go back to the counter in the kitchen and starting with rice in a plastic bowl, a server adds pulled pork, beef or chicken, red or black beans and various other sides/toppings and sauces. It was very delicious, but a far cry from what I hoped to convey. Drinks from a cooler behind the cash register in the kitchen area consisted of beer, water and soft drinks. Those delicious buns could be ordered, but otherwise, it was cafeteria style. What a transformation it undergoes for the night crowd. "
