Ever get the feeling that the kitchen staff is staring at you but then realize they’re really looking at jonathan gold sitting behind you? #askingforafriend
the beltless belly
malibu cherry tomatoes, tofu, shiso, yuzu
chang’s version of a caprese salad, sub mozzarella for soft tofu, basil for shiso, and olive oil for soy sauce and sesame oil. very good.
foie gras, strawberry, ricotta
very similar to the momofuku ko’s frozen foie gras with lychee and pine nut brittle. i preferred the texture contrast of the brittle at ko.
fried butterball potatoes, salsa seca, peanuts, chili
boiled whole chicken
hot, moist, and ready to eat
breasts, rice, fermented black bean chile sauce, ginger-scallion
The breasts were moister than betty white at a barry manilow concert. I think the rice had more schmaltz than a hallmark store. ask for extra sauce
truffles, hand-torn noodles
you definitely get the whole chicken
strawberry trifle, buttermilk panna cotta, chiffon cake
