NYC Restaurant Week Brunch at Perilla

8/31/2015

My mom and dad were going to run the Chardonnay Run in New York City and they wanted to find a good place to have brunch and they found a place called Perilla. Perrilla's Chef Harold Dieterle was the winner of the first season of Top Chef and it was NYC Restaurant Week. After they ran their race, we headed over there.


My dad and I decided to split a few things. We decided to split the vanilla scented donuts and the calamari salad for our appetizer. For our entrees, we got a spicy duck burger and french toast with roasted plums.  When the food came I started with the calamari salad while my dad had the donuts.  The calamari salad was nice and crunchy and the calamari was amazing. It was so tender, there is just no way to explain how good it was but I would’ve liked more calamari in the salad because it was so good.  The donuts were amazing also. The inside was nice and airy and the outside was sweet. It couldn’t get any better but when you put the pear sauce on the donut it was like heaven.


After we finished the appetizers we got our entrees. I started off with the french toast and my dad with the burger.  When I got the french toast, I noticed that the roasted plums were actually a sauce.  I decided to taste it without the sauce first to see what it tasted like. It tasted good and was nice and sweet.  So, I put the sauce on it and it tasted amazing with the sauce on. It was a mix of sweet and sour in your mouth. It was the best french toast I’d ever tasted and I’m not the type you’d call a french toast lover.  Next I tried the duck burger.  The burger was a nice sort of soft texture. When you took a bite it was so spicy! I was a tiny bit worried at first because I wasn’t a big duck fan, but when I had it all I tasted was spice but next time I want to taste a little more meat. The spiced fries that the burger came with was the star of the dish. It was nice and crispy, but it had that spice that made it shine.  If I had to choose two dishes to have again, it would be the french toast and the vanilla scented donuts.  Perilla was very good and I’d be super happy to eat there again.
