Still many months behind on my posts, I forgot to take notes on a casual dinner tonight, and thus, back in my hotel room, I feel compelled to recordthis occurrence before memory of it slips away.
I ventured to meet two gentlemen at The Perfect Pint, a relatively new outpost of the original spot at 45th and 6th. It was staffed with seemingly authentic young lasses from Ireland, who pointed out with an efficient brusqeness (which seemed very Irish) the best food and drink on their "New York Irish" menu. The "30 beers on tap" is a little misleading, as the excellent Innis & Gunn is only available (as it is everywhere else) in bottles - but both that bottle and the Guiness were well poured and tasty.
I opted for the traditional fish & chips, which were good. Nothing to write Galway about, but ok. In fact, the "New York Irish" cuisine included some great buffalo wings ("Neo Classical Chicken Wings") that were just the right spice and meaty.
Overall, this short post should tell you one thing - The Perfect Pint is a good place for a casual pint (or 10) with some good bar noshes. A nice addition to the fast food and fancy steak in the Midtown East zip code.
