Then I read the part where Pete Wells had a better time at Senor Frog's than at Per Se

Here's an Eater article on this. :-)

Sadly, the NYC Señor Frogs has closed.

 

Eater.com put out a follow-up article on the New Yorker profile: 

http://ny.eater.com/2016/9/6/12812332/pete-wells-profile-8-things-we-learned 

A commenter there remarked that Chang did not come over well. I myself would agree.**

 

As for the review on Momofuku Nishi, for those interested here it is.

 

** As an aside, I for one look askance at the adulation heaped upon Chang here in the USA. His vaunted pork buns, just as one example, are but a rework of a dish/preparation that has been known and eaten for years and years in E/SE Asia; and food bloggers etc (some of whom I respect) in those locales have laughed at this weird adulation in the States of this pork bun, and at the notion held by some that he even invented it (not!).
