Mastermind of Momofuku, David Chang

Momofuku Ko, with a second runner up option of Le Bernardin.

32 readers voted in this hotly contested poll where a culinary death match was waged between the top three contenders – Le Bernardin, Momofuku Ko, and Jean Georges. Bern squeaked into second place by one mere vote.

Since reservations at Ko are notoriously tricky, I’ll see how those go with a backup reservation at the big B. David Chang, please be kind.

Also, I’ve been fiddling with the site layout to streamline your reading experience. Simplicity > complexity. Tastiness > not tastiness. Parsnips > radishes. You know?
