RESTAURANT REVIEW

This is where David Chang revolutionized the contemporary dining experience, creating a cuisine that has been copied by chefs all over the country. Using a counter seating format, Chang takes the money he saves on servers and spends it on sourcing the very best artisanal ingredients and hiring cooks talented enough to work at the top restaurants in the city. The result is a cuisine that includes dishes like greenmarket brussels sprouts with kimchi purée and cubes of Benton’s bacon, and Anson Mills grits cooked in dashi and served with pink shrimp from Maine.
