Bumping this thread after having a fantastic meal here last night. The wife and I shared a bunch of small plates and one large plate.
Small plates:
Raw tuna with chopped chilis and orange
Seafood gumbo
Catfish with pickled greens and chili broth
Spicy ground shrimp and noodles
Large plate was the daily fish (I know, poor ordering). But seriously, the daily fish was tilefish, a personal favorite of mine. The tilefish was served on a bed of braised greens in a beet broth. This was the best thing I had on the night. Tilefish was cooked perfectly, and seasoned just enough to form a crust but not overpower the tilefish.
Everything was excellent. My favorite small plate was the catfish with greens. I really like the way that Link takes Louisiana home cooking staples and scales them up to a level that I could never do at home. I think that is what draws me to his restaurants.
We finished the meal off with coffee and the chocolate peanut butter banana pie. Great as well.
Another thing that impressed me was the fish that he featured on the menu for the day. The daily fish was tilefish and the "whole" daily fish was red grouper. It was very refreshing to see him offer high quality local fish that are not on the menu at many restaurants.

I agree, the place is great. Link knows how to elevate traditional dishes, and this Peche is no exception.
What did you think of the Gumbo? I didn't try the gumbo or other soup when I went, but I would like to try it.
