The 2013 Michelin Guide for NYC is out!

All the 3-stars are the same, and the new addition to the 2-stars is Atera. Naturally, I have tried most of these restaurants many, many times.

NYC: Per Se (Sep. 2012 #2): Koonho’s Birthday

September 30, 2012 2 comments

Authors: Victor and Monty
Restaurant: Per Se
Exec Chef: Thomas Keller
Chef de Cuisine: Eli Kaimeh

-We celebrated Koonho’s birthday today; he turned 29 a few days ago (and has received countless “old” jokes since).
-One thing I like about Per Se is that they’ll print out a custom menu if you tell them in advance. Our menus said “Happy Birthday Koonho” and also had no listed prices. It’s definitely a nice touch to make the whole experience more memorable for everyone! The birthday boy or girl also gets this delicious chocolate-mousse cake (which had hints of coffee, too)! Unfortunately, I didn’t take a picture of it :(.

Monte: Hi, Helen!
