One of Vegas’s Best French Restaurants Opens a Next-Door Champagne Bar | Eater Vegas

"An evening at this modern French restaurant calls for a tasting menu—examples include poached egg with shaved black truffles, artful arrangements of bluefin tuna with broccoli purée, and an oxtail croque monsieur (savory oxtail layered between strips of buttered toast). With menus that offer up to nine courses, dinner here is an event that merits setting aside two to three hours for indulging in modern French food. The restaurant recently took over the space next door to its Chinatown location and opened a new bar for French fare à la carte and a robust selection of Champagne; the team behind that expansion includes executive chef Yuri Szarzewski, CEO/manager Nicolas Kalpokdjian, and executive pastry chef Ludovic Chazeaud. While the menu rotates monthly, the oxtail croque monsieur is a mainstay—one which customers refuse to part with—so it will also be offered in the new lounge." - Janna Karel
