Momofuku Ssam Bar

Momofuku Ssam Bar [207 Second Avenue, New York; Menu]

It's hard to keep up with this place, especially considering that its name and reason for its origin, the Ssam (essentially a Korean burrito) isn't even on the menu anymore. But anyway, it's still a great place for a late night meal (it's usually too crowded at peak hours, although being able to wait in the back at Momofuku Milk Bar makes this much more tolerable than it used to be). The menu changes with the seasons and uses lots of fresh, local ingredients, so I recommend sharing some seasonal small plates and starting with the always there, always delicious pork buns.
