The restaurant that started the food porn trend in New York City has now taken the next logical step and is banning photography of the food.  But the omnipotent blogging community is flooding the market with illegitimate shots. 

Ko’s boss David Chang says, “It’s only food - eat it.”  Other restaurant bosses have yet to adopt this facist policy as long as the shuttering is kept to a minimum.

David Chang's no-photography policy at Ko was bound to cause a stir — after all, along with its draconian reservations policy, the stolen furtive glimpses of dishes you might never taste helped make the restaurant the city's ultimate food-porn fantasy. Chang is probably right in thinking that cameras disrupt the meal, but he is alone in creating a ban, according to an informal survey by Serious Eats. (nymag)
