Doesn't it *look* beautiful?
I almost broke a tooth on it.
Raspberry jam and butter.
I appreciated the shape of the table bread. It was a unique way to serve rolls.
I ordered the mussels that were in a saffron sauce. It was quite a large serving, needless to say. It was served with a large cone of fries.
@Windaddict/ @HopSafari ordered what was essentially an omelet on top of puff pastry. I don't remember getting many tastes of it as it was gone in a jiffy.
Welcome to my view.
I loved the mussels' serving dish. There was a little barrier so that I could dip the bread into the saffron juice. It was some of the most delicious dipping juice I had ever had, ever. It was salty like the ocean, pungent with saffron, and sweet with roasted garlic. Amazing.
Our service was a little odd. Not only did the servers keep bringing plates and left them to pile up on our tiny two top, there was a large noticeable piece of white fuzz in the ketchup that was served with my giant cone of fries. It wasn't small or difficult to see. Rather, it was like a white fuzzy eye staring at us from dark red ketchup. I'm at a loss as to how to wait staff could have missed it, especially since I kept staring at it when they walked by as I tried to get their attention. It was as if they deliberately pretended it wasn't there. Perhaps none of them knew how to approach the situation, or perhaps they hoped I hadn't noticed it. In any case, it was odd to say the least.
The first stop in Vegas was Bouchon by Thomas Keller. Being a HUGE Rataoullie fan among many other things, I had high hopes. Some aspects of our Sunday brunch here were fantastic, and some were just ho-hum. Michael Chu of Cooking for Engineers recommended the brioche toast to my delight. Brioche is one of my not-so-secret-lovers, but our brioche toast was not as texturally pleasing as it was visually pleasing. In other words, our brioche was as hard as a rock and almost impossible to eat.
