Momofuku Ssäm Bar is a part of the Momofuku family of restaurants that include Momofuku Noodle Bar, amongst others worldwide, by internationally renowned Chef David Chang. Ssäm Bar opened in New York City’s East Village in 2006 serving a rotating menu, drawing inspiration from flavors and techniques found worldwide while staying true to their New York roots. Momofuku has been credited with “the rise of contemporary Asian-American cuisine” by the New York Times and was named the “most important restaurant in America” by Bon Appétit magazine. Chef Chang knows good meat: The chef’s Momofuku establishments were the first restaurants to ever offer Impossible Burger, met with lines around the block.
