Planning a trip to New York and want to try out one of the newest restaurants on the block? Try out Momofuku Ko if you can - but be warned, you'll need to book online - and there are only 12 (or possibly 14) spaces in the restaurant. Bookings are available via the restaurant's site each morning at 10am and usually fill up within the first two seconds (yes, that was 2 seconds). Award-winning restaurateur and host David Chang offers an eight-course tasting menu, priced at $US100, and includes dishes such as snail-and-ricotta lasagna. According to Steven A Shaw, executive director of The eGullet Society for Culinary Arts & Letters, commenting on the ease of securing an online booking when the restaurant first opened to today ... "Now, it's virtually impossible to get in". Hmmm ... so when someone says it's "virtually impossible" to get in to a restaurant where bookings are only made virtually ... does this mean ... that people use "virtually impossible" way too much (see previous item this blog)! However, if you still need a fix and haven't been able to get into Ko, Chang has two other restaurants in New York, Momofuku Noodle Bar and Momofuku Ssam.
