The newest concept to hit The Cosmopolitan’s Block 16 Urban Food Hall is Bang Bar by Momofuko from chef David Chang, which just opened on April 1.
The eatery focuses on grab-and-go food and serves up two types of wraps, the U wrap and the Fold-Up wrap, both created with the signature bang bread. They are griddled and stuffed with schwarma-style, spit-roasted meats (spicy pork or teriyaki chicken) or spicy eggplant. You can also get those options in the rice bowl with pickled onion and Bang Sauce.
And side dishes like stewed chickpeas, bean salad or pickled shishito peppers will make sure you don’t leave wanting. The spicy eggplant is also offered as a side. On the beverage side, enjoy either cocktails like the blood orange Negroni and yuzu lemonade or draft beers. Bang Bar is inspired by the New York original, which has been a hit ever since it opened in 2018, with lines stretching for days. Let’s just hope those lines don’t translate to Vegas, because we need to eat now! –Nina King
