Las Vegas
RESTAURANTS
You've got to stop gambling, smooching, and
other worthwhile pursuits to eat sooner or later, so why not make
at least one of your meals in Las Vegas a truly memorable occasion?
The ultimate in gourmet cuisine, Charlie Palmer's Aureole
is transplanted from Manhattan's East Side and reinterpreted inside
Mandalay Bay to simply take your breath away. Many are
tempted to choose a table surrounding its 42-foot tall wine tower,
where cat-suited wine angels rappel up and down to retrieve bottles.

Cognoscenti choose Aureole's Swan Court, possibly the most romantic place to eat in all of Las Vegas. Tables are distanced discreetly apart, and tall French doors overlook a pool where white swans cavort. Between courses you can go outside, feed the swans, and snuggle on garden furniture. The regular dinner menu is $65 per person. But you've come this far, why scrimp now? Opt for the $80 tasting menu. For another $45, the sommelier will pair a perfect wine with each course. It's heaven.

 The four-story tall wine tower houses an extensive collection of food-friendly wines. The sommelier can tell you which ones best complement any dish on the menu. |
