Toronto’s impending David Chang–off

In last weekend’s New York Times magazine, David Sax wrote a tiny piece about the impending non-feud between David Chang, who’ll be bringing two of his wildly popular Momofuku restaurants to Toronto this year, and David Chang, a chef at Ossington’s super-buzzy Yours Truly (let’s call them Chang 1 and Chang 2, respectively). It turns out, Chang 2 actually staged at Chang 1’s New York restaurant, although Chang 1 only vaguely remembers Chang 2. And while Chang 1 promises to play nice with Chang 2 when he comes up to Toronto, he did fire a shot across the bow at another New York superchef making his Hogtown debut: “Daddy Boulud is gonna be in Toronto, too. That’s who we will be sabotaging.” Read the entire story [New York Times] »
