David Chang

Its no secret i'm a great admirer of David Changs flavor combinations...his dishes often seem to sing with flavor and amaze you with the creativity.

After our last trip to NYC, though, I feel obliged to point out that there seems to be a shift toward Momofuku Ssam bar as the best place to sample his cooking (unless you are one of the lucky few to get into Ko). Momofuku noodle bar seemed a little staid and some of the better dishes we had enjoyed there several years ago now appear on the ssam menu. The bowls of noodles at Momofuku Noodle seemed a little ordinary, for example. Neither restaurant is that comfortable, but both are usually packed.
