RED ALERT: MomoMidtown Serving Lunch Today

Midtown Lunch notices a major, no, monumental announcement on the Momofuku website today: Ma Peche, David Chang and Tien Ho's blockbuster fall/winter opening and first effort outside the confines of the East Village is now serving a "midtown lunch special and limited mezzanine menu" at the Chambers Hotel. Yes, today, food at MomoMidtown. Breathe. The midtown lunch special includes a choice of two kinds of banh mi, rice noodles with pork, or squid salad and a drink for $10. Meanwhile the mezzanine menu includes all kinds of craziness from terrines to grilled cheese sandwiches, chicken soup, and a Chambers Burger.

They aren't opening the full dining room yet, so consider this a sweet, blessed preview. See the full menu below, check back later this morning for more live coverage, and please, for the love of all that's sacred, send early reports this way.
