#FOOD: MOMOFUKU MILK BAR TORONTO

For years now New Yorkers have been going crazy for Momofuku‘s Milk Bar, enticing their discerning palates with Ice Cream, Milkshakes, Cookies, Cakes and Pies.  Now Torontonians too have a chance the savour the sweetness with shipments coming direct from Brooklyn. And better yet, pricing is on-par to our American Friends!

You might already have discovered the phenomenal Ramen at Shangri La Hotel‘s Momofuku Noodle Bar, but with all that additional real estate not being utilized upstairs, all it took was a Walk-in Refrigerator to be installed and now we have officially a Milk Bar of our own.  Hopefully in the future these Sweets too will be made on premises and we will be able to taste for ourselves the rage that is Cereal Milk Soft Serve Ice Cream and their Milkshakes!

I’ve tried the greatness that is their Crack Pie ($6 a slice), a thin Biscuit-like Pie which can be described as a buttery, Butter Tart-esque concoction minus the runny-ness.  The Compost Cookie ($2 each) is a mixture of Butterscotch, Chocolate, Coffee and Pretzel Bits – absolutely delicious!

Prices are actually rather reasonable and I am intrigued by the Corn Cookie and Birthday Truffles, but alas there is only so much sugar one can ingest within a given period!  And I admit it, I kinda want a signature Lucky Peach (official Momofuku Logo) T-Shirt and Tote Bag!
