A few years ago I visited Per Se and had a fabulous experience. I recently revisited, but this time, I decided to try the Vegetarian menu.
 |
| Pea Cornet |
 |
| Cheese Crackers |
 |
| Harry's Berries Strawberry "Gazpacho" |
 |
| Hen Egg Custard |
The Hen Egg Custard with black winter truffle butter was as indulgent as it sounded.
 |
| Hawaiian Hearts of Peach Palm "Croquette" |
I love heart of palm, and this croquette was so yummy! The "tabbouleh" and fava bean hummus paired nicely with the falafel-like croquette.
 |
| "Bread and Butter" |
 |
Zuckerman Family Farms "Terrine D'Asperges"
|
I'm not particularly fond of asparagus, but I did think this dish was good. I really liked the addition of the wild ramps.
 |
| "Scotch Egg" |
My fave dish was the Scotch Egg. It was a hearty dish - the egg was enveloped in a crust of forest mushrooms, and accompanied with sugar snap peas and grilled frisee lettuces.
 |
| Marsh Hen Mill "Stradette" |
This was another fave - the elegant Stradette, served with oyster crackers and celery. I'm not a fan of celery, but I ate this entire dish up!
 |
| Summer Squash "Farcie" |
This dish offered zucchini prepared in multiple ways, and I loved the complexity of textures from the caramelized artichokes and cipollini onion rings.
 |
| "Gougere" |
The Gougere with "Comte" and black winter truffles was amazing! I could have easily eaten a number of these and been happy with only that!
There was once again an array of desserts.
 |
| Sugar-Baked K&J Orchards Yellow Peaches |
This was my favorite dessert, particularly because of the Madagascar Vanilla Bean Ice Cream that accompanied the fruits.
The "Coffee and Doughnuts" is such a fun dessert!
 |
| Malted Brownie |
The Lime-Scented Banana was so neat!
 |
| "Mignardises" |
The dining experience ends with a selection of hand-crafted bonbons. Pro tip: You can get more than one! I got Thin Mints and Banana Miso (the banana miso was my fave of the two).
 |
| Bon Bons |
If you're interested in the regular menu, these were the offerings:
 |
| Salmon Cornet |
 |
| "Oysters and Pearls" |
 |
| Citrus-Cured Hiramasa |
 |
| Hen Egg Custard |
 |
| Norwich Meadows Farm Sweet Carrots |
 |
| Green-Walk Hatchery Rainbow Troud "Chaud-Froid" |
 |
| Charcoal-Grilled Montauk Sea Scallop |
 |
| Wolfe Ranch Quail Breast |
 |
| Prime Rib of Elysian Fields Farm Lamb |
Although my friend said he left hungry, I thought the food was great and the service was stellar once again. I really enjoyed the Vegetarian menu!
