Overheard on the New York Boards

"Two new additions to the menu: pasta is now orecchiette with crawfish, asparagus, chicken sausage, garbanzo beans, and crumbled ricotta. Sauce was a tomato-based broth with chili paste. The sorbet has changed too; it's now an apricot sorbet with crumbled pie shell and molasses. I liked both new dishes very much." – ellenost on Momofuku Ko

"I'm by no means a vegetarian but this dish is large and comes with an amazing carrot tahini sauce. It's essentially a platter filled with fluffy brown rice, steamed veggies (bonus points for no bell peppers floating around in there!), and black beans." – Jess321 on the Vegetarian Special at Dojo

"Go for a putz. Any putz will do. There are four putz on the menu. Two have been translated into English - putz shredded beef and putz bitter melon - and for some reason these two have not: fish steamed in broth and putz, and putz chicken. Putz is Corda dichotoma or ... the rag tree found in Taiwan, Tibet and India. I jumped right in with putz bitter melon. Although the chef said they were fresh putz and I am sure they were pickled. No worries." – scoopG on Main Street Imperial Taiwanese Gourmet
