Funny, with all this talk of Momofuku Ko and its friends and family week that is redefining the very notion of a VIP event, we've been thin on content related to Ko's Fort Knox-like system that gets civilians access to the joint. Chang has said the reservations system will be online only, completely democratic, with reservations offered exactly one week in advance and no more. But what of the effen URL for this thing and when does it go live? Those questions, friends, we cannot yet answer with a degree of specificity that will sate your anticipatory fury. But we know this (and this is all we know): The system will go live sometime between now and Saturday and we'll have that URL for you here as soon as it does. Furthermore, feast your eyes on this screen shot (and this one) of the test site, leaked to us today by a secret mole we have insid—ok, fine, that Chang sent over. It's glorious, no? And as for all these open slots, think of it like that moment just before tickets for the Rolling Stones at the Hammerstein went on sale. It'll never be this easy ever again.
