 Georges Briguet, New York's iron host, has 18 tuxedoes. The affable and witty Briguet opened Le Périgord on April Fool's Day, 1964, and remains its formally clad front man. Executive chef and Le Périgord veteran Joël Benjamin maintains the concept of freshness as a centerpiece of Le Périgord cuisine, whether in the delicate turbot with a golden crust of Comté cheese and velvety Champagne sauce or salmon en brique with apples and savoy cabbage in a beurre blanc sauce. Global flavors resonate, in harissa-dusted sweetbreads and cardamom chutney accenting sautéed foie gras with Black Mission figs. The well-seasoned staff showers attention on fresh faces as well as its powerful regulars from the worlds of diplomacy and finance. |
