One of New York's most celebrated chefs, David Chang makes his West Coast debut with the opening of Majordomo.

The Momofuko chef has opened his Los Angeles restaurant in Chinatown. His New York restaurants include the Momofuku Noodle Bar, Momofuku Ssäm Bar and the Michelin-starred Momofuku Ko. Chang has been busy lately, preparing to open Majordomo and filiming a new Netflix show called "Ugly Delicious", which is airing next month. 

Housed in a former warehouse, the restaurant has been designed by the Momofuku Restaurant Group in collaboration with Toronto-based DesignAgency. Majordomo has a bar and counter seating in the large dining room, as well as a private dining room and a  patio courtyard with couches under strung lights. There are panels from James Jean, ceramics from Adam Field and bar artwork by David Choe, the American Korean artist best known for his murals and graffiti art.

The menu is not Korean. It is divided into seven different sections, starting with "Bing" including spicy lamb and a tin of sardines; appetizers such as broken soft tofu; dishes from the raw bar; vegetables from the market menu; noodles; fish; and meat. If Ur going in a group, don't miss the Adam Perry Lang-style smoked ribs  with galbi seasoning.
