30-Course “Super-Extended” Tasting!

I called a few days in advance and spoke with a Maître d’, Greg Ryan, about trying out a super-extended, 30-course tasting. My friends Miles and Carlin are the two people I know who can eat the most. I wanted to finish EVERYTHING, so I chose the big guns hahaha.

This was the view from our table:

Tad: Another day, another meal at Per Se. I have to admit that I am somewhat disappointed that we Victortook so many photos. I mean, taking a few for this blog is fine, since it is all part of our mission to evangelize good food. But it makes us seem like we’re tourists. My parents raised me better.

Victor:
-I borrowed my friend’s Fuji X100 (a real camera!), and these pictures are considerably better than my iPhone pictures haha. Also, one of the lights above us was much brighter than it should have been; I liked that a LOT it gave us much more lighting for our photography. The server eventually dimmed the light, though… but not before we were pretty much done with the meal and had taken all our pictures!
