Q: When my husband and I were planning our trip to Las Vegas last month, I was placed in charge of finding places to eat. I had heard Thomas Keller opened up a place, but didn't know where and it honestly didn't take me long to find Bouchon in the listing of restaurants along the strip. How could I NOT make this a priority? I quickly booked a reservation for a Sunday dinner and were were definitely not disappointed. We ended up being a little early, but considering it was a rather slow Sunday and our reservations were on the early side, they had no problem seating us right as we walked in. I was a little surprised at how quiet it was, but I think it made for a much more enjoyable experience. The ambiance was very much a Parisian bistro, down to the tile floor, dark wood bar, and white table cloths. The 2-top tables were set rather close to one another, but that didn't bother me much. It was a tiny bit distracting when the single man next to us was ordering, but that's only because I honestly wanted to know what he was ordering. It also gave me an opportunity to ask how he liked the chicken, which I was eyeing on the menu earlier. Our waiter greeted us as soon as we sat down. He asked for our preference for water and allowed us some time to peruse the menu. Water delivered, he gave a thorough explanation of the various specials they had that night. My husband and I both skipped on cocktails from the bar and went with wine for the evening. Unfortunately, their wine selection, while lovely, is outrageously expensive. I managed to find something reasonably priced and lucky for us it turned out to be a good find (Sans Liege '10 "The Offering" - it was surprisingly good, totally recommend it). The sommelier who poured our wine was very nice and complimented our choice without being judgmental. Overall, the waitstaff were warm, friendly, and very professional. We started our meal sharing the hors d'oeuvres special for the evening: fois gras pate, duck confit, and huckleberry gelee terrine. This was simply exquisite. That's the only way to describe it. The layer of fois gras at the top melted on the tongue, making way for the incredibly savory and rich duck confit. The huckleberry gelee was brightly tart and just a bit sweet and essentially cleaned up the palate. I am so happy we ordered this. It certainly was a one-of-a-kind experience. We both ordered a salad: I had the farro salad with kale, fresh tarragon, and preserved lemon segments and my husband had a green salad (the type of salad is escaping me at the moment). I was slightly disappointed in my salad. It was much more of a grain salad than a kale salad, which is what I was expecting. Had I the opportunity to change my order, I would have as this was definitely a meal salad. It was very heavy and filling. My husband's salad was a standard mixed greens with a lovely vinaigrette. For our entrees, my husband went old-school traditional with the Steak Frites (roasted flat iron cut) and I went with the Salmon. The Steak Frites was delicious: the steak itself was perfectly cooked to order and the frites were plentiful and yummy. The salmon was perfectly cooked (medium-rare) with a lovely seared crust on all sides. It was served with a side of farro and little cubes of winter squash. Since I had had my fill of farro with my salad, I stayed away from the farro with the salmon and enjoyed the fish and squash. As I write this, I'm curious as to why the waiter didn't question my order, seeing as I was ordering pretty much the same thing for 2 courses. I know that the customer is always right, but in this instance, I honestly would've liked some guidance and perhaps a nudge to order a different salad. Besides this little diner-error, everything was delicious and fresh. I made darn sure I saved room for dessert and neither of us were disappointed. My husband went with the Flourless Chocolate Tart and I went with their special for the evening Egg Nog Pot de creme. I loved this custard. It was not too over-the-top spicy, but perfectly sweet and creamy. My husband's chocolate tart was incredibly rich and delicious, too. Both of us were very pleased with our choices. Considering The French Laundry is on my bucket list, I'm happy that I was able to at least enjoy one of Thomas Keller's establishments early and one that doesn't require a reservation 6 months in advance. We very much enjoyed ourselves here and will happily come again. I hear their brunch is lovely, too...

Q: This is my favorite park that i have been to so far in las vegas! It is just beautiful! Hiking, awesome kids playgrounds, perfect for picnics, birthday parties & any other kind of family outings. I could spend all day at Explorations Park with my family and it would always be a great day to remember!

Q: After seeing the owner, walk out on bar rescue, like a little baby, and how the new people that came to the bar looked like they enjoyed it so much more, especially without a stupid name like Gypsy...really, the owner is really shitty, as all his employees took over, and looked great. That owner looked like he had some drug problem or something, smile nod nod nod, smile or smirk whatever the crap he was doing. You are an idiot, a drunk idiot, and you don't deserve to own anything. all your employees need to leave your sad sorry ass, and go to a real bar to work, with OUT you there...
