 Pâtisseries at Bellagio and Aria. Las Vegas.

 
Las Vegas , the  entertainment capital of the world  is known for its  casinos, resorts, shopping and fine dining .   The city’s entertainment industry is mostly focused in the Las Vegas Strip and  Crystals at city center is  a new  addition to the strip adjacent to new casino and resorts  Aria and Vdara.

I had watched Curtis Stone many years ago in the show ‘Take Home Chef’   and was amazed how smoothly he could invite himself into strangers  kitchens and teach them how to cook !  Meeting this handsome chef today I know it was a piece of cake for him ;)

Mozart's  cafe is one of Austin’s famous landmarks; on our list of must see & do things in Austin when we have out of town guests; and just a place to go to, if we want to do something!  We have visited this place so many times that I can review a large set of things on the menu, with  even menu  changes in different seasons of the year!
