"Scarpetta, the Italian restaurant at the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, now has a private dining experience with a six-course menu meant for parties of up to six. Scarpetta’s chef de cuisine Michael Vitangeli shares stories about the family recipes he serves at the chef’s table that sits between the view of the Fountains at Bellagio and the restaurant’s kitchen. The $200 per person dinner features homemade burratta served with prosciutto, roasted bell peppers, cracked pepper, grissini, and super Tuscan olive oil; scampi with homemade pasta, smothered jumbo prawns, heirloom tomatoes, capers, Vermentino wine, roasted garlic, and salmoriglio; porchetta, a roasted pork belly with apple mostarda and horseradish crema; and homemade canoli and torta della nona for dessert." - Susan Stapleton
