I don't have much to say right now, so I'll just share a gastronomical experience I had in Vegas last week. I was there for CES 2010 with my company. Our PR agency, Alpaytac, invited me, our company president and one of our VPs to dinner at Daniel Boulud's Brasserie at the Wynn. It was by far one of the most incredible eating experiences of my life. Living in Salt Lake, we don't get many options for high end restaurants, which is a complete shame. So this made the experience in Vegas even more incredible.
The atmosphere was just incredible. From inside the restaurant you can watch a show that plays about every 20 minutes right outside. It's quite an awesome experience.
The servers were very friendly and polite. Now, be prepared to spend a very pretty penny there. This is not Outback, so not only do you pay for every single thing that comes to your table, but also your food doesn't come within 5 minutes. Be ready to wait a little bit. The average price for an entree is $45. Side dish average is $20.
I had a delicious salad to begin, then an amazing French Onion soup. The top of the soup was covered in really thick cheese. Wow. Then my main dish was a filet mignon on a bed of super green spinach with baby potatoes on the side (marvelously seasoned). The filet was covered with a buttery sauce, similar to a hollandaise sauce, but a little sweeter. I could actually taste a little bit of coconut in it. I asked for it medium well, and that's perfectly what I got. The filet was so tender that I could have cut it with a spoon. This was by far the most delicious piece of steak I have ever had. Unreal! Worth every penny (although I didn't pay for it). We also had a cheese platter on our table that was just wonderful. I even asked the server to write down the names of all the cheeses for me so I could find them later. Mmmm...
