It's the FINAL COUNTDOWN!

Time to GET PUMPED UP!!!!!

BRING IT!

We will be going to Ko in T-3 days!

So Mr. Broad and I have been doing some research to understand what to expect. AND I wanted to answer some of your questions about this place as well.
Ko is not recession cheap by any means. However, for the quality and innovativeness of food at the cost of $85/pp, it's "supposed" to be an amazing deal. Man, I love New York.

From what my google searching has told me, you get an 8 course tasting meal and romantic ambiance is not it's middle name. No table linens, hell, no tables. Everyone sits at a long bar on stools with no backs.

The food is innovative and according to the FAQs on the website it reflects "American Cooking". However, I'm willing to bet my meal is no american meal like my mother prepared. Shaved foie gras? How did he shave it? It's supposed to be smooth and silky? That type of creativity is what David Chang is known for.

There are not many pictures of the food on google. Which could be due to 2 things:

1) There ARE only 14 people that go a day

2) Err. I'm not sure if you can take photos inside Ko. Seriously, sources tell me it's banned. But have no fear.

I will find my ways. (I mean the banned guy had a DSLR camera! can you BE more discreet?!)

Here's one shot I was able to find of what we may be eating. Likely before the so-called ban was in place.

Coddled egg with soubise onions, sweet potato vinegar, hackleback caviar, potato chips

But okay. Enough. Mr. Broad and I have obviously decided (from all of your ohso snide "champion" comments and from emails) that we WILL keep the reservation.

Never before did I think I'd be excited for a Sunday night to get here already...

BRING IT!
