The L'Unique Menu at L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon

Thursday September 24, 2009

L'Atelier

You really want to sample some of the finest cuisine Las Vegas has to offer but you are hampered by the tiny budget you seem to have every time you visit Las Vegas, right? What you need is L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon at the MGM Grand Las Vegas. You'll not only be fascinated by the magic of the flavors, you'll be impressed with the preparation and you'll be shocked by the price when you try the L'Unique menu.

The L'Unique menu at L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon is precisely what we need. Some decisions are made for us and we pay a small price. A three course meal that will give you a clear picture of what exactly it is you've been missing when it comes to fine dining. The menu changes weekly but you'll be sure to get some delicatable choices.

Possible appetizers might include:

  • Le Crabe Royal - King crab on top of a spicy semolina salad
  • La Dorade - Snapper tartar layered with crispy potatoes
  • L'Avocat - Avocado guacamole with white asparagus and tomato coulis

Possible main dish might be:

  • L'Osso Bucco - Braised veal shank and mashed potato
  • Le Boeuf - Beef carpaccio with arugula and shave parmessan
  • Le Fletan - Halibut seared with curry oil, fennel cream

Possible Desserts:

  • Le Chocolat - Coffee brule'e and chocolate rice souffle'
  • Le Beignet - Beignet filled with a rasberry coulis
  • Le Crumble - Berry crumble

I list the possibilities and my mouth waters at the thought of sitting at the counter and watching as my food is prepared and enjoying sights, sounds and aromas of the busy kitchen. Do yourself a favor and walk in and live a little at L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon.
