Sure almost every chef recommends Momofuku Ssäm Bar, but check it out for yourself. You’ll see chef David Chang’s unique take on Asian food transcends the hype and delivers the goods.

I really like Momofuku, all of them. Momofuku is flat out delicious.
Chef Nick Curtin of Compose
It’s my neighborhood joint. What they’re doing over there right now is pretty fantastic. It’s always a pleasure to go see those guys, watch them work and try some of their food, which is always fun and different.

The wine program is amazing, I just had a 97 Alsatian Pinot Gris for $65 that could not have complemented the food any better at Ssam Bar.
