BLOCKBUSTER: MomoMidtown is Serving Food
Holy smokes Batman! Ma Peche (aka Momofuku Midtown) has quietly started serving food in the mezzanine of the Chambers Hotel this week (on 56th btw. 5+6th). And… wait for it… wait for it… there’s a freakin’ “Midtown Lunch Special”. I am not shitting you. A Momofuku restaurant, situated in the Chambers Hotel, in the most expensive, touristy, part of New York City, is offering a lunch special for the Midtown Lunch friendly price of $10.
If you can still move your trembling hands, the menu is after jump. (Spoiler Alert: The Momofuku Banh Mi is back!)
ミッド タウン lunch / 10
daily: 11 am to 3 pm
choice of: bánh mì du maison — three terrine sandwich, daikon, cilantro
bánh mì au poullet — chicken, lemongrass, lettuce, mint
bún du riz — rice noodles, pork ragout, saw leaf herb
gá»i calamare — squid salad, fish sauce, thai basil, greens
with: coke / diet coke / keeper’s springs water
add: momofuku milk bar peanut butter cookie / 1.85
The restaurant itself is still not open yet, but the “Midtown Lunch Special” and a limited Brekafast, Lunch & Dinner menu is now available in the mezzanine of the hotel. I wonder where I’m eating lunch today…

re: the Momofuku midtown lunch. You can’t take “to-go”. Diners sit on couches and eat off end tables. More than half of the people dining there are staring at you to see if they might mention you in their blog post. Eating off end tables is not kitschy, it’s lame. Thumbs down. I walked out. I fear for David Chang.
