text: For my th review may I present with bated breath Rose Rabbit LiennMy husband had never been to Vegas I on the other hand have been about dozen times I will save my breath about the show since it is now defunct go see absinthe it is practically the same but I will RAVE absolutely RAVE about the restaurant nnFor his birthday and predeployment hurrah we decided to go all out in Vegas And I mean ALL OUT We went to Joel Robuchon Bobby Flay okay not as fancy but yummy and Picassos Picassos set me back about and was BORING but that is another review RRL blew my palate out of the waternnThe menus are sealed with wax I love little nuances that take a human touch It was cute it was charming and it had me at hello nnWe started with the Morel Spaghetti By far my favorite mushroom I am a bit tired of truffles these days morels sing a great song of decadence and heartiness to me The dish was robust with morels taking center stage with microbursts of spice from the wood sorrel another favoritennGougeres What else can I say except they were perfect in every way Wish there were a few morennHubby had the Crispy Oysters Rockefeller I am highly allergic to shellfish so I cannot comment on these except for the fact that while ordering another drink taking a bite then looking up he had eaten them all Very Walrus and the Carpenter of him The time has come to order more And he didnnFor mains we sharednnShort Rib Stroganoff perfect and richnnCrispy Berkshire Pork Belly fatty deliciousnnBrussel Sprouts with crispy chicken skin hands down my favorite item on the menu The portion was rather large and not overly greasy As the name suggests the skin of the chicken was quite crisp The sprouts themselves were done in such a way the bitterness was replaced with a crunchy sweet welcoming flavor I have only ever experienced in my own kitchen on accident nnTo send my husband off to war again what is this our th deployment Spec Ops is busy these days I ordered him the bananas foster It was big enough for people It is quite the show if you are a BF fan Make sure your waiter is aware of the curtains over some of the chandeliers they seem a bit low and the flame does seem a bit high nnPresentation of all the food was marvelous The tastes exploded on my tongue Service was wonderful and other patrons were impeccably dressed No backwards hats or yardstick beers here I wore a navy pant romper with gold heels dior purse and inch long eyelashes DH dressed like he just stepped off of a John Varvatos runway Please if you come here dress to impress if only to show respect to the establishmentnnAfterwards we went to the study which was lined with records and bartenders eager to please We got our cocktails in glasses that SPIN I have a video but yelp does not like it when I post videos We were able to drink the night away in great lighting fantastic company no hookers at the bar trying to pick us up a la Vegas style and pick some music from the plethora of LPs lining the wallsnnNever in my entire marriage have I had a better date night than the one I spent at RRL Come for the food enjoy the chaos around you but most of all relax and indulge For less than half of what we spent at Picassos it is quite affordable and worth every dime
