NYC: Per Se (Oct. 2012)
Author: Victor
Restaurant: Per Se
Exec Chef: Thomas Keller
Date: October 27, 2012
Notes:
We had the typical nine-course with some additions and modifications:
1. We exchanged the oyster and pearls dish for the uni panna cotta, and we switched the scallop course for the lobster roll.
2. Our server added in a few extra dishes, such as the vichyssoise, Pacific kampachi, and vanilla bean–roasted bay scallop.
3. We added the white truffle tagliatelle as an extra dish.
4. I exchanged the lamb for the Wagyu brisket, while my friend kept the lamb.

Monte: I think the centerpiece is gorgeous. I’m not big on decoration, but this felt like a gaudy and yet elegant way to lend class to the room.
