In addition to describing unique Asian-American recipes centered on the ramen noodle, the book tells the story of launching Chang's popular New York City restaurants of the same name. The book is illustrated by photo journalist Gabriele Stabile with images of the dishes and the scenes of the chef and staff in the restaurants.
The book has three chapters, modelled around each of Momofuku's New York City restaurants: Noodle Bar, Ssam Bar, and Ko, with recipes and stories based around each topic. When writing about the recipes, Chang credits the team of people who actually developed them.
