The short ribs may have been a tad tough because they looked like they were medium rare. Because of where this cut comes from unless it is braised or very slowly cooked over a length of time you will have from a bit to a whole weekends worth of chewing. The only med rare short ribs I ever had that were tender at med rare was thinly sliced Kobe style Wagyu.

Sounds incredible. O just ate at Momofuko noodle bar. And I walked by Ko, peering in with envy. At least with your pictures, I get a slight taste, well not really taste, but glimmer.

Is there a trick to getting reservations at KO? I’ve tried just about every day for over a month now.

Chicken Fried Gourmet: Thanks for the compliment. Yes, Marvis was hostile but I got over it. Edgy555: Aren't we all conflicted? Most of the time, I would take photos without asking until a staff member (e.g. waiter) would ask me nicely, not to. If Marvis was actually asked me not to photograph him, fine. I won't take a photo of you, just my food and the general people who don't protest. Amanda: I agree. Though, Marvis ain't old. Liz: You're welcome. Thanks for the compliment. J: Thank you! I wish I could get compensated...alas, it's not going to happen.

Thanks so much for this post – I’m visiting NYC for the first time next month, and have been dying to try at least one of the Momofukus. Your post and pictures have been a great really helpful in planning our stay, and I’m sure I’m not the only person who really appreciates them.

It’s obvious from all your writing how important the food, as opposed to what ol’ grumpy guts up there calls ’status dining’, is to you. Keep up the good work!

I love taking pictures of my food! I appreciate expensive food so much, I want to remember it forever! That Marvis sounds like a real stodgy old fellow.
