]]> Comment on Gimme some mo’ momofuku by Leggo my Eggo http://themealdeal.wordpress.com/2008/01/30/gimme-some-mo-momofuku/#comment-12 Leggo my Eggo Mon, 10 Mar 2008 02:55:36 +0000 http://themealdeal.wordpress.com/?p=6#comment-12 So I knew I had to try this place...and it was just a matter of time. And although it was always in the master plan, this review pushed me to go immediately...I went with two family members who loved it equally as much as I did. Thank you for the recommendations. Here is what we ordered and what the crowd thought: We started with two orders from the raw bar menu (seabass and scallops). A little bit sweet and little biut spicey. Both de-lish. Moved on to the Country Hams. All around goodness. Our server recommended doing both a regular and smoked version of the hams (which we did) and no one could decide which they liked better. They didn't even need the bread and dipping sauce that they came with. Next came the steamed buns. Enuf said. Two orders and we were still wanting more. As our "main" courses we had the grilled veal sweetbread and the hanger steak ssam. No exaggeration, my two dining companions were fighting with their chopsticks over who was going to have the last bite. We accompanied these dishes with a side of brussel sprouts which ended up being my personal favorite. A little beer, a little sake, great food and a very London-esque vide...I will be sure to return and try some other goodies here. Thanks again for the motivation and I will be checking in for the next review! So I knew I had to try this place…and it was just a matter of time.
