Perilla

Editorial Review

West Babylon’s own Harold Dieterle takes down Top Chef, turns his attention to the WVill. Lots of potential in this spin-off. Name reflects Chinese basil, available in coconut cake fro-yo dessert. Creative menu goes farm fresh, hits jerk grouper, boar chops, duckling with grits and pomegranate. For aps, it’s pea tendrils and trumpets livening up Berkshire pork belly. Retro fixtures and dark wood floors provide taste of elegance in otherwise minimal, neighborhoody digs.
