Salon Service at Per Se
I hadn't planned this post but when my wife, Donna, started emailing these iPhone shots of the dishes she was served at per se yesterday at lunch I just had to put them up. First of all, Thomas Keller and his ace staff two years ago began offering dishes a la carte in their salon area, outside the dining room. It's a fabulous way to taste what the per se chefs, led now by CDC Eli Kaimeh, are up to. (It's no wonder that Sam Sifton, in his final column as restaurant critic for The New York Times, called it the best restaurant in New York City.)

Long enamored of black and white, my wife and collaborator has been working on a series of food shots featuring not food so much as the color of food. If you like her work, let her know, spread this link on facebook or twitter, or have a look at her gallery at ruhlmanphotography.com.
This last one reflects where we've been. Florida at the height of citrus season. Great weather for the first time in a decade, excellent lunch at Cafe Morada, jaw achingly chewy conch fritters at Alabama Jack's, an excellent meal at a new place on Palm Beach (my mom's a real estate agent at Sotheby's there) at Buccan, and delicious and genuine daiquiris at Nick and Johnny's watching Duke's final win (sigh).
Back home and will resume posting Monday (thinking stock more ...
