From an email:

“At long last, we’re thrilled to announce Milk Bar is now open at CityCenterDC, (1090 I Street NW, Washington, D.C.)! Chef/founder & owner, Christina Tosi, couldn’t be more excited to officially open her first Milk Bar in the thriving neighborhood so close to her hometown! The chef/Northern Virginia native has a cult-like following surrounding her bakery, Milk Bar, for compost cookies®, crack pie®, cereal milk™, b’day truffles and more, all of which are featured on the menu.

Milk Bar ​at CityCenter​DC is also debuting a line of fresh and bright parfaits​,​ exclusive to the location, as well as our Milk Bar Blend hot coffee. Both perfect for a grab-and-go breakfast, or afternoon snack! Christina’s first and second cookbook, as well as a variety of merchandise, including our new Milk Bar cookie mixes and birthday layer cake tote bags will also be available. Milk Bar will be open until midnight this evening and regular hours are 7AM-12AM every day.”

And on Momofuku’s status – Washington Post with the good word:

“Momofuku’s opening date is imminent but remains fluid.

Chang is not comfortable giving out an exact opening date until the menu and the kitchen crew come together to his satisfaction. Stay tuned.”

Do you guys think Milk Bar will crush RareSweets or is there hunger enough for both at CityCenter?
