After a 13-hour international flight, I could not have asked for a more invigorating arrival than my evening at Pierre’s TT. As soon as I arrived, it felt as though the entire team had been awaiting my arrival. The hostess greeted me warmly and personally, setting the tone for a night that would be both elevated and deeply welcoming.
I was seated at a table with a view overlooking the Creek, framed by fountain performances and occasional fireworks, which made the evening even more enjoyable.
The service was exceptional. I was attended by five staff members throughout the night, including the general manager, each one knowledgeable, poised, and deeply familiar with the ingredients and techniques behind every plate. Their attentiveness never felt rehearsed but only genuine and effortlessly polished.
My meal began with king crab and razor clams à la Nantaise, elegantly paired with a leek fondue that added subtle depth and richness. The second course, blue lobster in frothy licorice butter, was wonderful and delicately balanced with baby carrots and vanilla-scented parsnips, and plated with a visual restraint that allowed the ingredients to shine. I didn’t leave much for the dish washer!
Pierre’s TT delivered a first-night-in-the-city experience that set an impossibly high bar. I walked out restored, excited, and utterly inspired.
