Thomas Keller. That name demands respect and admiration. He has built a small empire of 3 Michellin starred restaurants. On a business trip through New York, I was able to stop at his East-Coast restaurant, Per Se. I opted to taste his creations by enjoying a comfortable couch in the Lounge with a beautiful view of Central Park. To eat, I enjoyed two entrees, which allowed for the famous amuse bouche and then feasted on the dessert tasting menu. Pictures below.
