David Chang Cooks for SFA

DAVID CHANG

David Chang is a Korean-American chef in New York City. (He was born in Virginia giving him his southern roots). He is chef/owner of Momofuku Noodle Bar, Momofuku Ko and Momofuku Ssäm Bar in the East Village. He has been named a Food & Wine Best New Chef, a GQ Man of the Year, a Rolling Stone Agent of Change, and a Bon Appetit Chef of the Year. He has taken home three James Beard Awards: Rising Star Chef, Best Chef New York City, and Best New Restaurant (Momofuku Ko).

I am very excited to cook from his cookbook - Momofuku. Momofuku has both stories and recipes that tell the history and love for his cuisine. He talks about being a chef in New York and how to properly use Asian flavors in cooking. He has a whole section on Benton's Bacon in his book with beautiful photography. It is a must read!
