Occupying 9435 West Tropicana Avenue inside Crossroads Plaza Shopping Center and open 24-hours with fresh bakes replenishing supply as necessary, it was with items carefully boxed and delivered to an office three miles away that Pinkbox brightened Thursday morning.

More and more social-media savvy over the years this visit entailed far beyond the usual “OG Classics,” and although PinkBox’s Old Fashioned Cogwheels are still Las Vegas’ best additional traditional choices are mostly as expected and more expensive than other mom n’ pop spots nearby.

Often beginning with a Fritter, this day no different and the resulting bite packed with Cinnamon plus Fruit, it was after others made selections that Smashin’ Apple continued the gluttony, its Streusel and Whip mellowing the sweet Pie Filling center.

Fully committed to clever nomenclature, “Sup Shorty” packed with fresh Peaches plus Whip, “Mr. Blueberry” succeeds thanks to White Chocolate plus Cheesecake while Crumb Bum and simple rings show Roberto Armanino knew early-on to nail the basics.

Knowing full-well which purist would scoop up “Rainbow Rings,” it was later in the day that several Doughnuts remained, “It’s Ya Birthday” stowed away intentionally while specials like a Bleeding Heart, Ding Dong Hockey Puck, Maple Poo and DoughCros all performed admirably.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Company [13,] Las Vegas NV

Chocolate Chip Cookie Company

Just the Dough Cookie

Cranberry White Chocolate Cookie

Oatmeal Raisin Cookie

Banana Walnut Cookie

Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookie

Cinnamon Sugar Cookie

Peanut Butter Cookie

Chocolate Chip Cookie

Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookie

Located inside Suite 242 of 6380 South Valley View Boulevard it seems likely that no one will accidentally stumble upon Chocolate Chip Cookie Company, but for those with the prudence to seek Dessert while out and about the small store in front of a commissary kitchen may just be serving Las Vegas’ best collection of locally made rounds.

Focused on “Bringing the Cookie Back,” and previously available only by delivery, it was late 2018 that Jovan Mesa-Glennon and husband John opened a small store at the back of an industrial complex, hours from 10:00am till six o’clock or later daily giving guests a chance to see the facility and take home one or more of several styles.

Baking everything from scratch, Jovan’s secret recipes yielding the sort of Cookie that blossoms a bit around the edge before becoming crisp, it was based on prior experience that two-dozen were ordered for work, the business’ namesake buttery with just enough Vanilla and Cinnamon to perfume the palate while chunks of Bittersweet Chocolate are partially melted throughout the center.

Next tasting Peanut Butter followed by Chocolate Chip Walnut, the addition of Nuts to Mrs. Mesa-Glennon‘s Batter proves predictably delicious while “Just the Dough” is textbook chewy with oodles of nostalgia.

Prioritizing customer safety by individually bagging each Cookie at no extra cost Banana Walnut wins guests over by way of natural sweetness and toasty spots in juxtaposition to sugary Toffee Chocolate Chip that is also slightly salty and heterogeneous from bite-to-bite.

Titling their version of the Snickerdoodle a “Cinnamon and Sugar Cookie,” the granulated top plus plenty of Butter making each mouthful sugary and moist, fans should be sure to follow @thechocolatechipcookieco on Social Media where specials such as White Chocolate and Craisins or chewy Oatmeal Raisin are frequently announced.

Mango Chamoy Cream Puff

Pop Rocks Mochi Donut

Blueberry Mochi Donut

Fruity Pebbles & Coco Pebbles Mochi Donut

Biscoff Cookie Mochi Donut

White Chocolate Matcha Mochi Donut

Samoa Mochi Donut – Chocolate, Hazelnut, Caramel, Coconut

Already taking a chance by opening another KBBQ concept on Spring Mountain Mr. BBQ’s Jenny Chai doubled down in early February with Mama Chai’s, the Boba and Dessert shop joining a crowded market but hoping to succeed thanks to cute design plus quality baking.

Accessed via a separate entrance towards the rear of 4240 Spring Mountain Road, an outdoor patio and murals greeting guests, it is via digital menu that one may construct Beverages to their liking while Mochi Donuts and Cream Puffs line a Pastry case near the front.

Offering Milk or Fruit Tea, Yogurt Drinks and Frappes featuring Asian Ingredients a look at the Baked Goods spans a dozen or so flavors, the stuffed-Choux outpacing Beard Papa by a good distance whether one selects Red Velvet, spicy Mango or even Passionfruit.

Open Noon to 11pm Sunday through Thursday and an hour later on weekends the menu continues with Mochi Donuts, an idea popularized by Japan’s “pon de ring” already done far better at Mama Chai’s than by Paina Café down the road.

Made from Tapioca Flour and naturally free of Gluten, their consistency often described as bouncy or light, Jenny’s Mochi rings pull inspiration from a variety of cultures, Strawberry Cheesecake and Blueberry each naturally flavored while Lotus Cookies, Green Tea KitKat and dueling “Pebbles” are all made better by the pleasant, chewy base.

Already visited five times since reopening after the pandemic and under new ownership there is little doubt that The Palms is seeking to regain its title as Las Vegas’ best Off-Strip resort, a goal thus far successful in terms of dining thanks to Chef Marty Lopez, Tammy Alana and General Manager Jorge Pagani at Scotch 80 Prime.

Debuted late-Spring of 2018, stalwart N9NE Steakhouse making way for a room decorated in Basquiat and Haring, guests visiting Scotch 80 today will find much of the original aesthetic maintained minus paintings kept by past owners, the Bar still well-stocked with rare Whiskeys and service predictably impeccable.

Located at the resort’s east end with an entirely revamped menu, seasonal changes frequent along with an upcoming Tasting Menu and Wagyu Samplers including A5 varieties straight from Japan, it was deferring Carte Blanche to the kitchen that Dinner began with flaming Shellfish, Snails with Scallop Mousse and Marty’s Rainbow Tiradito.

Not forgetting delicate Milk Bread or crispy Shrimp served with their Heads the first new plate of the evening featured Tempura Oyster Mushroom served with Black Garlic Chimichurri followed by Vegan-friendly Lumpia tracing back to the Chef’s Filipino upbringing.

Getting creative with Bone Marrow by adding Beef Cheek plus Popcorn, and serving it alongside creamy Brie Fondue, suffice it to say that those not sold on Beets will likely find something to like about the Salad featuring them mixed amidst Arugula, Honey and seared Goat Cheese.

Cleansing the palate with Duck Fat Fries and “Famous” Hash Browns Steaks and Sides at Scotch 80 Prime are amongst Las Vegas’ best, one Bone-In cut from Creekstone Farms and another of Aussie Wagyu arriving alongside Mushrooms beneath Foie Gras Foam and Lobster Fried Rice.

Saving room for Dessert this time, but not before vibrant Swordfish Putanesca or hearty Beef Cheeks atop Risotto, Scotch 80’s Hokkaido Snow Beef Burger with Smoked Brie, Foie Gras and Onion Marmalade continues to set a high bar atop Tammy Alana’s housemade Hokkaido Milk Bread.

All-in from here, a Sorbet Sampler setting the tone, Chai Cheesecake and Butterscotch Crème Brulee stand in wait as servers ignite Fireball S’mores alongside Tammy’s Pear Tartarine plus five types of Chocolate unveiled in a swirl of smoke.

Founded by Zack Hall out of an apartment on Clark Street in West Hollywood Clark Street Bread has resided inside Grand Central Market since 2015, skills originally learned at his Wife’s family bakery in the Swedish countryside since refined to make bountiful Breads and elegant Viennoiserie that have expanded nearly all the way back to where it started by taking over the old 101 Coffee Shop.

No longer 24/7, open from 7am to 3pm daily, Clark Street Diner nonetheless retains much of the former occupant’s charm thanks to Formica tables and worn-leather booths while a menu of old favorites has been upgraded by skilled baking and local-seasonal Ingredients.

Still featuring stone walls and tight spacing, the laminate menus reminiscing of days past on the ground floor of Hollywood’s Best Western Plus, it is beginning with Pastries that old fans will notice differences, Hall’s Dark Rye Brownie rich but cake-like while Cookies including Chocolate Chunk and Snickerdoodles outpace other spots charging 2x the price.

Just $4.50 for a Kouign Amann that tastes just like what one finds in the bakeries of Bordeaux and Brittany, and not forgetting Kardemummabullar or Monkey Bread, Pancakes come in a three-stack with Sonora Buttermilk, Strauss Butter and Real Maple Syrup while Chilaquiles use Free Range Eggs and taste better than the ones at Damian while costing less.

Brewing Coffee using House Roots Beans and spinning Shakes from Fosselman’s Ice Cream it should come as no surprise that both the Chicken Sandwich and Avocado Toast feature housemade Seeded Bread and although Cornbread trends far too dry that is easy to forgive when faced with golden Onion Rings plus the best Biscuits n’ Gravy found west of the Mississippi River yet.

More laid back than Cosme or Pujol, Damian finds Jesús “Chuy” Cervantes and Enrique Olvera viewing Mexican food through a California lense with clean and concise flavors but a pricepoint so laughable that by the time they add 4% to “support fair wages” guests will already be scratching their heads wondering if a flight to Mexico City just for dinner is a better value.

Opened in 2005 Hotcakes Bakes remains something of an under-the-radar shop, owner Elfie Weiss having turned in a career in entertainment for the store in Del Ray that has been feeding Angelinos for nearly two decades.

Born in France but taking a broad approach to baking, the Almond Croissant showing off good lamination around semi-sweet Paste, Hotcakes Bakes continues the Cupcake “trend” with full-size or minis, Red Velvet moist despite lots of Cocoa while Tres Leches finds added emphasis from Mangoes with Tajin.

Also selling a convincing Carrot Cake, plus cookies including thick and chewy Snickerdoodles, consider skipping overbaked Chocolate Chip rounds in favor of $4.25 Shortbread beneath a choice of Lemon Curd or soft Salted Caramel.

Last visited at the original in 2016 Jon & Vinny’s has since spawned three siblings, the location at Slauson also acting as home to a Wine Shop though for most it is the Italian Food and Pastries that remain a draw.

Open from 8:00am daily, the guys behind Animal and Son of a Gun a known entity including the Restaurant’s narrow footprint with loud music, it was as the door unlocked that two guests were seated at a booth where service proved accommodating.

Still adding autograt that isn’t gratuity, a polarizing policy atop prices that only fly in a city like Los Angeles, it was mere moments before Coffee was poured alongside an Apple Fritter and Ricotta Toast, the weekend-only former light and oilless but far smaller than its pricepoint suggests.

Moving on to the proper Breakfast menu, one “entree,” spicy ‘Nduja and a side of Crispy Smashed Potatoes rife with Pepper and Parm selected, Carbonara performs well thanks to good Pancetta plus Noodles cooked al dente and a generous amount of Egg Yolk.

Not a morning meal for the thrifty at $130 all-in, Cookies from the pastry case are across-the-board impressive, Snickerdoodle, Chocolate Chip and Peanut Butter all what one might expect while $2-per-bite Rainbow Cake and $12.75 Bread Pudding are skewed to the left in terms of cost versus quality.

Pineapple Upside Down Cake – Crushed Peanuts, Coconut Ice Cream

Sweet Sticky Rice – Crushed Peanuts

Deep Fried Banana Roll – Banana wrapped in a Rice Paper Crepe, Honey

Already the rare Las Vegas recipient of a James Beard Foundation Award, Chef Saipin Chutima named Best Chef: Southwest in 2011, Lotus of Siam needs no introduction – though its recreation on Flamingo and fanciful digs at Red Rock suggest the Chef’s children have bigger things in mind about the Restaurant’s legacy going forward.

Having visited the unassuming icon of Thai Food twice prior, a lunch in 2012 and dinner five years later, Wednesday evening found the expansive new location predictably packed from Bar to back room where a party of four sat amidst locals as well as tourists.

Known best for spicy Norther Thai traditions and Riesling, though Thai Tea or Coffee may be prudent for those looking to quell the flames of dishes such as Steak Tartare teaming with Chilis, Lotus’ “Thai Ceviche” titled Koong Char offers a complex medley balanced by Citrus while Som Thum can be ordered the usual way or lightly fried with Tempura.

Requesting everything level five of ten, the stuffed Chicken Wings flawless but mild, Tom Kha Gai arrives spewing fire at the center of Coconut and boiled Chicken blended with Lemongrass while Sea Bass Som Thum presents steamed Sea Bass flaky beneath Vegetables, Sugar and Lime.

More pricey than Thai anywhere else in town, though the ingredient quality is undeniably high, Garlic Prawns earn signature status with edible Shells still on as do Nam Prik Ong and Crispy Duck Khao Soi that tastes like more assertive Panang Curry thanks to the acidity of Vinegar and Lime.

Lit up by Thum Ka Noon, or Shredded Young Jack Fruit with Pork, Issan Sausage delivers snappy Meat with deep yet pleasant funkiness while Grilled Ribeye Panang shows off Prime Beef resting in Chilis and Coconut Milk.

Not exactly “known” for sweet stuff, Desserts instead recited tableside, guests can expect the usual Sticky Rice and Coconut Ice Cream or opt for deep fried Bananas with Honey and a surprisingly well-crafted Pineapple Upside Down Cake served warm a la mode.

TRES LECHES – Vanilla Chiffon, Vanilla Cream, Strawberries, Toasted Meringue

Now part of Downtown Summerlin for over a year, with expansion to Dallas mere weeks away, La Neta offers modern Mexican Cuisine and fancy Mixed Drinks in a room built for the #gram.

Street slang for “The Truth,” industry-veteran Ryan Labbe focused on the hospitality side while Chef Lanny Chin heads the kitchen, it is amidst vines and chandeliers that guests are treated to top notch service plus videos and music that plays a touch too loud.

Self-described as #UnapologeticallyUnique and true to its word in terms of “BIG F*#K’N TACOS” and drinks such as El Jefe with boozy Horchata, it is under the direction of General Manager Chris Zadie that dinner begins with housemade Chips, Salsa and Guac plus some mighty fine Flautas.

Priced appropriate to an immersive experience, Sopes with Chorizo and Oysters beneath Ceviche outpacing overworked Meatballs, Salads are all highlights whether one opts for a tangle of Beets or Citrus-soak Sprouts though the “Mexican Wedge” proves best thanks to pickled Peppers and spicy Pork Vinaigrette.

Built for sharing at Brunch or Dinner, particularly as relates to oversized Tacos ranging $60-$95, the Taco stuffed with a whole Lobster falls a bit flat as a result of too much Slaw while the Bone-in Short Rib Birria is rich and tender even before dunking it in Consommé.

Putting on a show with “24 Karne,” flames unveiling Skirt Steak, Truffle Fondue, Onions and Gold, dueling “Trashed Potatoes” should not be overlooked, nor should be Desserts including Red Velvet Churros, layered Tres Leches or Bunuelos given Bananas Foster treatment.

Last visited in 2013 Friendly Donut House remains a Henderson staple for good reason, opening hours as early as 4:00am daily finding shelves full of fried Dough paired to pleasant customer service.

The sort of place built for Veterans to linger over Coffee, a strip-mall on South Boulder Highway playing host to regulars for decades, fans of classics will find lightly fried Yeast rings beneath Glaze while those who favor Cake can choose Vanilla or Chocolate with Sprinkles, Cinnamon Crumble or plain.

Also offering Longjohns and squared-Bismarcks, the later piped with Cream or Custard, Buttermilk Bars are textbook thanks to penetrant Sugar plus Icing in a variety of flavors while the Apple Fritter is easily Sin City’s best and well-worth the drive, cost and calories thanks to the crisp exterior and Cinnamon-spiced Fruit inside.

ROSEMARY CARAMEL BONBON, STRAWBERRY GELEE

Trained in the kitchens of Bergamo Italy but born stateside Marc Vetri’s name may not carry the weight of some “Celebrity Chefs,” but at his eponymous Restaurant in Philadelphia there has nonetheless been a book full of reservations for more than two decades, and in November 2018 the husband, father, musician, author and humanitarian transported his iconic dining room 56 stories above the Las Vegas Strip.

Titled Vetri Cucina and occupying the former home of Alizé, a space that has been completely re-imagined with imported cobblestone, warm wood and soft lighting, it is after a ride in elevators that guests will find themselves in a foyer where classic rock plays, the hostess stand just steps beyond and in front of a bar serving Wine plus inspired Cocktails.

In many ways Sin City’s biggest re-opening post-pandemic, an exclusive price-point one part of the reason, it is after confirming reservations that guests are led to tables clad in white tablecloths and hand-blown glasses, tiny candles flickering as bright lights glow below and into the distance.

Featuring a la carte service as opposed to Chef Vetri’s Philadelphia Tasting Menu, though the latter is reportedly forthcoming, it is by skilled servers that diners are offered warm professionalism while the kitchen is led by Chefs Michael Rubenstien and Ashley Costa.

Offering both Marc’s classics and newer seasonal items, a Bread program by the former Batali Pastry maestro yielding seeded Sourdough plus two starters, “savory Zeppole” come loaded with aged Proscuitto while Wheat Focaccia offers unparalleled softness beneath Mortadella, airy Cheese and Pistachios.

Moving next to Pasta, the appropriate focus of any visit to Vetri Cucina, it was skipping recipes from the book “Il Viaggio di Vetri” that guests were next treated to all-new, Gemelli with Pesto and Orange Zest plus pockets of Taleggio Cheese contrasting bitter Radicchio and Walnuts brightened by Honey.

Requesting additional Bread to sop up Sauce, the overall lack of Tomatoes expected as a result of Marc’s regional approach, savories overlooked Goat this time in favor of pricey grilled Seafood plus roasted Chicken that seems almost French thanks to Foie Gras and Mushrooms.

Taking Espresso with Dolci, the complete collection of Vetri’s classics and new ideas from Chef Costa on display, Chocoholics should head straight for the molten-center “Souffle” while those seeking Fruit will be delighted by tart Semifreddo or Creme Fraiche Panna Cotta with Huckleberries and shards of Meringue.

Cleansing the palate between plates with bites of Gelato, both Hazelnut and Orange lovely but Vanilla on a whole different level, if one were forced to pick Vetri Cucina’s *best* Dessert the decision would fall between Sicilian Pistachio “Flan” and a peerless Paris Brest, the former spilling silky green contents with each spoonful while the latter showcases Choux around dainty Mousse.

Named after a popular crop in the Philippines, and a favorite snack of Chef Ramir Bolanos DeCastro, Purple Potato unfortunately shut its doors in the middle of 2019, the closure after just 21 months largely a result of location rather than Food as the healthy Bowls and quick-casual Sandwiches were almost universally well-received.

Now three years older and wiser, COVID-19 having entirely reshaped an Off-Strip dining scene that Chef Ramir helped to initiate with Yonaka in early 2013, Purple Potato marches on as a bakery at 6370 W Flamingo Rd #20 featuring Donuts, Cookies, Ube-based treats and Filipino Pastries.

Previously offered for delivery or takeout only, but now brick and mortar with pre-orders available online, it was Wednesday that ten items were delivered, Savories skipped in favor of recently-added Mango Cheesecake Donuts featuring a Brioche base and Cream Cheese Mousse merged with housemade Jam.

Scaling back “Monster Cookies” to approximately 4”, Calamansi Funfetti currently off the menu, Ube and Red Velvet rounds feature a crisp rim with molten center while Chocolate Chip Walnut is more traditional but no less enjoyable.

Never actually gone from the local food scene, the rebranding of Yonaka and Purple Potato followed by a consulting gig at McCarran, Chef DeCastro’s current lineup continues with Croissant and Brioche-style Donuts, this day featuring a dozen varieties ranging from a Ube to “Tiramisu” and Oreo.

Not about to miss Mango Monkey Bread, similar in topping to the Donut withCream Cheese and Mango Jam, fans of Coconut should head straight for lavish Young Coconut Pie with strip-studded Custard and a layer of Streusel on top.

In an era where every new Restaurant begs to be liked by making “pretty” food James and his team are just making really great food. Seasonal food that is undoubtedly rooted in technique but never compromises flavor for looks. Food that isn’t full of unnecessary additions, full of itself or trying to tell some story. Food you want to eat, then eat more of, because it comes from the heart.

Born in Burbank, and brought to Las Vegas Boulevard by the folks behind Morels French Steakhouse & Bistro, it was August of 2019 that the Strip finally started brewing once again, and although Trustworthy Brewing Company’s location in Palazzo’s Grand Canal Shoppes will always be challenging the Food is both accessible and delicious while service exudes friendly professionalism.

Now re-opened post-Pandemic, and beginning to gain traction during a busy Conference season, Trustworthy Brewing Co. occupies a sizable footprint ready to seat more than four hundred guests and capable of producing some 1150 gallons of Beer from tanks inside a specially-designed room.

Sparring no expense in the build-out, a large bar surrounded by tables, booths, event space and a PDR, it was after greetings from familiar staff that six guests were seated, televisions showing NFL Conference Championship Football while commentary played overhead.

Built with “Fun” as a core-value, several styles of Beer with quirky names poured throughout a space featuring Skee Ball, it was alongside a $15 flight that Brunch got started, the Chicken & Waffles well-executed while Trustworthy’s Benedict riffs on tradition utilizing whipped Mascarpone in the Hollandaise atop Brioche.

Continuing with crispy Tots plus less-inspiring Fries alongside house-smoked Pork Shoulder Chef JL Carrera’s all-new Corn Dogs earn praise thanks to snappy Franks and delicate Cornmeal alongside “Ultimate” Brisket Nachos that are pretty much mandatory for sharing during the game.

Built to be an eye-catcher, bright blues and reds coating walls throughout the continuous main room, round two featured hearty Chili served with Butter-soaked Cornbread plus Deviled Eggs n’ Bacon, golden Chicken Schnitzel and Shepherd’s Pie placing creamy Potatoes atop Beef, Corn and Edamame.

Delivered across two games and plenty of laughs it was while Mahomes and the Chiefs sealed their Superbowl birth that GM Robert Parekh stopped by to end the afternoon with a perfectly prepared Pretzel, layered Chocolate Cake and “Colossal” Carrot Cake that lives up to its name.

In the era of Social Media and Public Relations it is rare to see any sort of dining event kept “secret,” but for two weeks each year Jasmine at The Bellagio quietly opens its doors during daylight hours for a Dim Sum Brunch celebrating the New Year, first in a global sense and then to commemorate the Chinese version.

Unadvertised save for a colorful board outside the Restaurant, this year spanning January 22nd to the 29th from 11:00am until 2:30pm, it is approximately fifteen minutes prior to opening etched doors that guests begin queuing, never mind the fact that most have reservations but rather for the chance to sit with an unobstructed view of Bellagio’s famous fountains.

Attended for the first time since 2020, a cost of $88.88 per diner and just $20.00 for children far lower than Jasmine’s equally splendid dinner, it was after seating by familiar staff that most guests stood to begin perusing some ninety choices spread across a variety of Buffet and Live Stations.

Truly a grand display, traditional Dim Sum and Chinese Barbeque lined up alongside items decorated in everything from Foie Gras to Abalone, it would not be long before most early arrivals returned to their table with plates full, fresh Oysters and Crab Legs a popular choice amongst the largely Asian crowd though many also gravitated towards a display of baked and fried Dim Sum that this year included Steam Bunny Dumplings, Coconut Rice Cakes and decorative Gelatin.

Moving slowly and eyeing variety, Shellfish and Sushi tasted alongside items less commonly experienced in such a setting, it was as a young woman played the guzheng that additional plates were enjoyed, Puff Pastry Custard, Turnip Cakes and Squid Ink Custard Steamed Bun all highlights necessitating repeat tastes.

Sipping Coffee, Jasmine Tea and Fiji throughout a ninety minute stay, The Fountains at Bellagio dancing outside floor-to-ceiling windows, cold items including Spring Rolls and Duck Liver Terrine were both exquisite while Peking Duck and Char Siu with traditional condiments remains a must.

Focusing next on silver steam trays lining the center, left and right mirrored to create a seamless flow of traffic, it was as the fountains again danced outside that steamed and baked Buns competed for stomach space with Noodles and Beef, the bold flavors only rivaled this year by luxurious Congee featuring Century Eggs.

Always evolving Dessert, the aforementioned Puddings and Custards aside, Egg Custard Tarts rival any in Sin City while Sesame Cookies, Chocolates and Mochi this year found themselves served alongside Chai Tea Mousse and Mango Sticky Rice.

Last visited in November, and twenty-two times prior including a yearly tradition, it was alongside two others on Wednesday night that Jean Georges Steakhouse once again found the kitchen executing at a high level.

Led by Chef Sean Griffin since 2015, including a renovation that upgraded décor and delivery of pristine Proteins and Produce, guests entering Jean Georges Steakhouse are greeted first at a podium before being led to spot-lit tables, the mood upscale but never stuffy while prices track similar to other like-Restaurants that feature far less creative cuisine.

Decorated in gold, and buzzing with activity, it was at a long table that carte blanche was deferred to the kitchen, Wine and Cocktails quickly followed by buttery Loaves of Brioche and familiar appetizers such as Charred Octopus and truffled Wagyu Carpaccio atop Pate a Choux.

Always inventive, Foie Gras with Applesauce Sauce absolutely stunning, Salads served as a segue to grilled Meats, the iconic Hearts of Palm and Tomatoes praised by all for its brightness while a hearty Wedge also lightened the load before Lamb Chops alongside Rib Cap and Ribeye of F1 Wagyu cooked Medium Rare.

Adding a few new specials, Tempura Mushrooms with Honey a Vegetarian masterpiece juxtaposing Las Vegas’ best Fried Chicken, Japanese Leek Casserole performed expectedly well as did Bone Marrow and Mac n’ Cheese beneath a mountain of Truffles.

Refreshing the palate between bites of lean but rich Piedmontese Filet Mignon with Asparagus Dessert saw Passion Fruit Meringue plus old favorites down the line, Chef Vongerichten’s Chocolate Cake served with tableside theatrics and followed by Cheesecake plus exceptional Apple Pie.

Now serving Sin City for over two years it was via online ordering Wicked Donuts were picked up on Sunday, execution less dialed-in than prior though the majority were still quite delicious.

Already discussing Pastry Chef Robert Teddy’s background here, it was from the seasonal menu that 15 styles were tasted, classics both Raised and Cake buttery with premium handmade toppings including real Vanilla Bean, fresh Fruit and rich Chocolate Ganache.

Offering roughly two-dozen flavors daily, in addition to freshly-fried minis available in a keto-friendly fashion, any discussion of Wicked Donuts should begin with the base, buttery Brioche or toothsome Cake best allowed to shine beneath tangy Buttermilk or Vanilla Glaze, though upgrading to Chocolate or Maple is highly advised.

Next indulging in old favorites, PB&J continuing to occupy rarefied air as one of Las Vegas’ best Donuts while the Lemon Meringue Pie outperforms many plated Deserts, Chef Teddy’s Apple Pear Fritter still lacks the desirable amount of Fruit.

Eschewing Artificial Colors or Preservatives, a fact pertinent to Cream-filled choices that may be left in a conference room or kitchen at room temperature, suffice it to say that most will not last long, nor did “Triple Chocolate Cake” which is as rich as it sounds.

Adding crispy Bacon to Maple Iced Brioche, a modern-classic rarely done better, “Guava Cheesecake” makes lips pucker while “Blue Suede Banana” riffs on the King’s favorite minus Pork but plus Dark Chocolate.
