Had an epic dinner at Momofuku Ko last night. Their tasting menu is one of the best in the city. Here’s more or less what I had (didn’t take notes, and my memory sucks)
Amuses:
Cucumber Thingy (?)
Pork broth w/melon (?)
Biscuit with pork fat
Spicy pork crackling (spicy pork rind)
Main dishes:
Fluke sashimi w/sea beans
Smoke infused poached egg w/ caviar
Bone marrow brioche with gruyere broth and blackened dehydrated onion powder (deconstructed onion soup)
Pasta with shrimp and asparagus
14 day dry aged beef carpaccio w/horseradish sauce and something crispy on top
Frozen, grated foie gras w/peanut brittle, fresh lychee and riesling jello
sea bass
Lamb that tasted like pork belly
Dessert:
Deconstructed crumble (peach)
Pretzel panna cotta w/sea salt, mustard gummy things and root beer ice cream

my cell is a 631 area code – tready lightly my friend.
Pete – You’re way ahead of me if you got a signal. It could be just turning the antenna to the correct geographic point.
For instance for CBS, NBC & ABC I need to aim at 333 degrees off magnetic north. For PBS it’s 7 degrees.
I was inclined to be sympathetic to Tony Hayward on a human level before today.
