Two stories in size and featuring many things chocolate plus a collection of overpriced comfort foods it was just after 10:00am when we sat down at a cozy two top near the base of the stairs and treated to pleasant \u201ceverything is good\u201d service typical to such places a five part order was hatched as the restaurant bustled, leaving one to ponder the reasons for any pending change. With service swift it was only a matter of minutes before selections began to arrive, the first a superlative $8 milkshake thick with caramel and rife with vanilla but topped with copious whipped cream to mask what I\u2019d guess to be an 8oz serving, a trend carried over to each plate that followed as large prices met small portions thankfully bolstered by bold flavors. Starting sweet and following with savory due to a kitchen miscalculation it should be noted that each of Brenner\u2019s pure chocolates are well sourced, smooth, and complex by the bar and as such both white and milk versions only served to improve the Custard French toast and Soft Cookie, the later on par with that of New York\u2019s fabled Levain Bakery in terms of taste and texture (though at 2.5x the price) and while I think everyone would have been happier to see the Croquettes first I\u2019d be lying if I didn\u2019t say they were my favorite bite of the meal \u2013 the paprika and manchego working smoky, savory magic on the lightly fried kernels.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/005-Max-Brenner-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"005 - Max Brenner (2)\" src=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/themes\/grey-opaque\/plugins\/lazy-load\/images\/1x1.trans.gif\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/005-Max-Brenner-2-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"005 - Max Brenner (2)\" src=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/005-Max-Brenner-2-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/noscript><\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/005-Max-Brenner-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"005 - Max Brenner (5)\" src=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/themes\/grey-opaque\/plugins\/lazy-load\/images\/1x1.trans.gif\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/005-Max-Brenner-5-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"005 - Max Brenner (5)\" src=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/005-Max-Brenner-5-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/noscript><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/005-Max-Brenner-21.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"005 - Max Brenner (21)\" src=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/themes\/grey-opaque\/plugins\/lazy-load\/images\/1x1.trans.gif\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/005-Max-Brenner-21-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"005 - Max Brenner (21)\" src=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/005-Max-Brenner-21-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/maxbrenner.com\/<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/r\/18\/1541246\/restaurant\/The-Strip\/Max-Brenner-Chocolate-by-The-Bald-Man-Las-Vegas\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Max Brenner Chocolate by The Bald Man on Urbanspoon\" src=\"https:\/\/endoedibles.com\/wp-content\/themes\/grey-opaque\/plugins\/lazy-load\/images\/1x1.trans.gif\" data-lazy-src=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/b\/link\/1541246\/biglink.gif\" style=\"border:none;width:200px;height:146px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Max Brenner Chocolate by The Bald Man on Urbanspoon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/b\/link\/1541246\/biglink.gif\" style=\"border:none;width:200px;height:146px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Max Brenner White Corn Croquettes \u2013 Paprika dusted white corn and manchego cheese in panko Cinnamon Apple and White Chocolate French Toast \u2013 Brown Sugar Spiced Pecans, Warm Toffee Sauce Crispy Bacon Salted Caramel Milkshake \u2013 Vanilla Ice Cream, Chocolate &hellip;
