The food that comes out of chef Paul Liebrandt's kitchen is exquisite.
We decided to go with the three course tasting menu.
Much to our delight, it came with a number of complimentary tiny tasting dishes, including a small scallop served in it's shell.
For my entree I selected the pheasant egg with seasonal vegetables.
The gold leaf on the egg was a lovely touch.
I couldn't resist having the lobster as my main.
It was served with the most delicious green curry sauce and just looked so beautiful.
We shared our desserts. The salted caramel with popcorn was divine, with the perfect balance of salty and sweet.
The second dessert showcasing chocolate in a variety of ways was a chocolate lovers dream.
To top it all off, a tray of complimentary macarons, chocolates and chocolate truffles came by each table at the end of their dinner. What a beautiful way to wrap up the perfect meal.
Corton is a must do experience when dining in NYC.
