A Little Bit About a Lot of Things

A lifestyle blog with a focus on my food adventures

imag1673The first seating for dinner at Momofuku Noodle Bar is at 5:30pm. We arrive at 5:40 and we miss the first seating – come back in an hour they say. So we pop over to the Milk Bar around the corner to pick up some treats while we wait. The restaurant is packed and it is mostly counter and communal style dining – although there are a few regular two tops. The noise level can get a bit high here, so if you are looking for a quiet romantic evening, you may want to look elsewhere.

imag1675I ordered the momofuku ramen with pork belly, pork shoulder and a poached egg – just what I needed on this chilly evening.

IMAG1676My friend Cathleen says it’s all about the non noodle dishes here, and man is she right! The shrimp and grits app hit it out of the park for us. The dish was served with bacon, scallion and a poached egg. I loved the creamy textures in this dish.
