Dear ,
Have you experienced Momofuku?
One of the most hotly anticipated restaurant openings of 2015 also happens to be a homecoming: Chef David Chang, a Virginia native, opened his newest Momofuku at CityCenterDC a few days ago. The lines were around the block, but you don’t have to wait to meet this innovative chef.
Join us for a lively evening, as Chang and Lucky Peach editor Peter Meehan talk about:
- The rise of Momofuku
- Lucky Peach, the quarterly journal of food and writing the two co-founded
- 101 Easy Asian Recipes, a compendium of recipes for everyone who loves dandan noodles, Japanese fried chicken, and pho, but thought they were too hard to make at home
The ticket price includes a copy of the cookbook; additional copies are available for purchase at the event.

Other Connections:
The name of David Chang’s restaurant group is also a nod to Momofuku Ando, inventor of the instant ramen noodle—which as a child, the chef-to-be liked to nibble uncooked. Ramen often provided Chang the basis for inventive recipes. Watch him create a batch of ramen fried chicken and a dish he dubs ramensagna, which honors Italian pasta’s Eastern roots.
