Perbacco is a restaurant Colette and I had "tested" and it has a private space on the 2nd floor somewhat suitable for private parties, which in this case meant I could hold an Editorial Board meeting there - I thought. The problem was that at its peak at lunch the noise from downstairs drowned out the upstairs' discussion.
We all started offwith a green salad with parmesan slices; then I chose the sole with capers and raisins over the chicken breast and both were pedestrian; and we ended with a nice strawberry-rhubarb and creme fraiche dessert.
My publisher picked up the check so I have no idea of its magnitude.
Go again? Not for a meeting, but personal lunch sure.

We all started with various salads (Caesar for me and rabbit and mesclun for the others [all unpictured])
