Food:
Amuse-bouche:
Left: Beet with goat parmesan.
Middle: Tuna tartare with soy glaze and potato crisp.
Right: Cauliflower soup with potato foam and parmesan tuile.
Monte: Oh mah lordy lord this was a marvelous start to the meal. From left to right you first get a soft cheesy bite of sweetness, next a wonderful textural contrast with crispy and creamy salty goodness, and lastly a wonderfully aromatic rich soup. Wunderbar.

Dinner (Chef’s Tasting Menu)
Notes:
1. Le Bernardin is Chef Eric Ripert’s flagship restaurant, and it’s known as the best seafood restaurant in North America (a temple of seafood, yadayadayada).
2. They gave us a free 2012 Zagat Guide to go with the menu at the end, so that was nice. Too bad the 2013 one’s already out :(.
Menu changes:
1. They replaced the arctic char dish with a black bass dish.
