Momofuku Ko Served Its Last Meal on 1st Avenue Last Night, Extra Place Awaits

With (as expected) little advance warning, Momofuku Ko celebrated its final night on 1st Avenue last night, and is now in the process of moving its pots and pans to its new home on the corner of Extra Place. Master of the Momo universe David Chang thanked his staff (past and present) and his regulars last night on Instagram, but gave no indication of when the new Ko will be up and running. At last check, the new space, which will seat 25 instead of the old 12, was still under construction and there are no reservations open on Ko's website, so expect a reopening that's at least a couple of weeks down the road.

Momo friends wished the place adieu with takeout and drinks:
