Was @ Per Se today getting the royal tour and saw rows and gleaming, excited staff getting ready to be photographed by the NY Times this afternoon. Rumour has it that it wont be just a review but also a whole feature highlighting their attention to detail...

Many on the management staff are still wet behind the ears; Spice Market was designed and planned to capitalize on the earning potential in the M.P. district. The restaurant didn't plan to take itself very seriously and the three star review from the Times has proved to be a double edged sword of sorts. As someone who has experienced what's going on behind the scenes, I can assure you there are restaurants with far more integrity that deserve your dollar.
