MŎKBAR
M ŏkbar, a ramen shop open from 11am to 11pm daily in
Chelsea Market, combines traditional Korean soups with
fresh Japanese ramen noodles for a unique noodle experience. In
Asia, eating noodles on-the-go is an everyday lifestyle. Mŏkbar
will bring that cultural experience to New York City by selling
ramen for take-out. Customers will enjoy comforting noodles
on-the-go while browsing Chelsea Market and enjoying the
city—in the office, or back at home.
Mŏkbar also offers a sit-down dining experience for lunch and
dinner where guests can watch the chefs prepare their meal in
front of them. Mŏkbar is excited to offer a special seasonal menu
and small Korean "anju" plates during the dinner hours as well.
Each dish has its own unique story but the chef, Esther Choi's
artisanal kimchi (fermented Korean pickles) holds a special place
in her heart. Kimchi is at the center of every Korean meal and has
amazing health benefits. It's loaded with vitamins A, B and C,
as well as healthy bacteria from the fermentation process, and is
incorporated into each ramen dish and small plate on Mŏkbar’s
menu. Mŏkbar customers can consume seasonal kimchi with
their meal, as well as purchase kimchi to enjoy at home. Learn

THE LOBSTER PLACE
A lot's been going on since The Lobster Place completed its
expansion and opened its sister restaurant, Cull & Pistol, last
year. CEO Ian MacGregor says, "we've steadily expanded our
product line, overhauled our grab-and-go menu with lots of
new salad and sandwich options, and started butchering whole
tunas." MacGregor is especially excited about re-branding The
Lobster Place's quick-service eatery (formerly known as 'The
Shack') as 'C&P Galley'. He says, "We wanted to reinforce the
relationship between The Lobster Place and Cull & Pistol, the
restaurant it inspired." This August 4-29 is great time to try
Cull & Pistol. They'll be featuring a $19.74 (the year The Lobster
Place opened) special on 1.5lb lobsters. While you're there, be
sure to check out C&P's new dessert and coffee options, as well
as NYC's best-curated selection of rum.
2014 marks the 40th anniversary for The Lobster Place. They're
celebrating all year long with specials and events, including
Lobster Stock, an off-site event in the Catskills on August 8
featuring live music and an enormous clambake. To learn more

TRENDING
You know how you've been doing something for years, and
then suddenly you read about it in The New York Times and
discover that your every-day awesomeness is now a national
trend? That's how we felt when read Florence Fabricant's piece,
"So Much Food, It Fills a Hall" (NYT, May 13, 2014). Indoor food
halls are nothing new, of course, but they used to be something
of a rarity outside of Europe. Now it seems no American city is
complete without one. From developing food halls like Ponce
City Market in Atlanta and Market Hall in Misson Bay to es-
tablished marketplaces like Chelsea Market and Faneuil Hall,
indoor food halls are suddenly all the rage.
"I love the fact that indoor food halls are 'trending'," says Mi-
chael Ginsberg, Chelsea Market’s Mayor Laureate and Events
Director. "Chelsea Market was founded on the principle that
food creates community. When Irwin Cohen developed Chelsea
Market back in the early '90's, he nurtured a collective of local
food manufacturers and artisans, and—in doing so—he enabled
an authentic food destination to grow organically. There's no
better way to bring people together than to offer them amazing
food in a local environment." Visit chelseamarket.com to learn
more about the Chelsea Market Cookbook, which is packed full
of information about Chelsea Market's evolution as a food hall.
