Things appear to be progressing down on Extra Place, where David Chang and team are quickly and quietly building out the new Momofuku Ko. Chang's Instagram shows what looks like a very fancy new kitchen island being installed and polished last night (now we know what that Momo-branded mystery object was), so it can only be a matter of time before the cooking begins. Chang's acclaimed tasting menu restaurant recently served its last meal at 163 First Avenue. The Momo crew is still keeping the opening date tightly under wraps, but it is surely imminent.
