Per Se

A casual dinner for 16 #perse

A sea scallop I probably don't deserve.

This was amazing! The wafer was so thin you could see right through it. Tres leches ice cream on top of rum cake and orange marmalade

Elysian Fields Farm's Lamb - Pumpernickel "tuile", Sacramento Delta green asparagus, sweet carrots, spring garlic and "Béarnaise Gastrique". That sauce had molasses in it and I was in heaven!

Butter poached Nova Scotia lobster - Parmigiano-Reggiano, morel mushrooms, Holland white asparagus. Piedmont hazelnuts and flowering watercress.

'Oysters and Pearls' - Saboyon of pearl tapioca with Island Creek oysters and sterling white sturgeon caviar

Sautéed fillet of Atlantic halibut - Pommes purée, hearts of romaine lettuce, English peas and bouillabaisse.

Hudson Valley Moulard Duck Foie Gras "Pastrami" - Buckwheat crisp, Persian cucumbers, clementines, Greek yoghurt and Aged balsamic vinegar (served with toasted brioche).

Little buttery cones of salmon and creme fraiche to start. They come in their own cute little stand. @islandqueen doesn't like salmon so I got to eat the top of hers too, hee!

Grapefruit stuff! Granita, champagne, a layer of fluffy custard and the fruit underneath it! (I've got a bad memory, if things aren't on the menu my descriptions will suck!)

Jasper Hill Farm's "Winnimere" - Beet poppyseed Madeleine, English walnuts, Granny Smith apples and celery branch. (I asked for a small slice because I was too full by this point!)

Thomas Farm's Squab - Heirloom cauliflower, sour cherries, toasted pistachios, claytonia and green peppercorn jus.
