At Pierre Gagnaire’s only restaurant in the Western Hemisphere, the food easily matches — and sometimes surpasses — that of Robuchon, Savoy and others. Take the Muscovy Duck. Barely medium rare and thinly sliced, the duck is served with cracked green peppercorns and a whiskey jus. Dotted about the plate are caramelized D’Anjou pear and pine nuts, all playing against the gamey flavor of the duck. On the side is an eggplant cannelloni filled with duck confit, wrapped almost like a dolma. All the major players in this dish are perfect examples of earthy fall flavors in fine balance.  Twist is a Desert Companion Restaurant Award winner in 2010 and 2013, winning Chef of the Year and Appetizer of the Year respectively.  Also voted "Best Tasting Menu" in Desert Companion's Best of the City 2015 issue.
