Per Se
As the internationally acclaimed chef of the French Laundry, Thomas Keller has earned a reputation as a perfectionist. At Per Se diners benefit from the first taste--miniature sesame cones topped with a scoop of buttery salmon tartare, which arrive as a gift from the kitchen--to the last, gracious nibbles of homemade truffles. In between, dishes like "liver and onions," buttery, tender ramps with lush duck liver pâté; Keller's signature "oysters and pearls" made with tapioca, just-warm oysters, sweet butter and a wealth of caviar; and the genius combination of foie gras, peach jelly and--unexpectedly--young cilantro leaves, sweep diners off their feet.
