Serendipity 3 At Caesars Palace To Undergo Some Whimsical Changes & Enhanced Menu

Five years and more than 500,000 signature Frrrozen Hot Chocolates later, Serendipity 3 at Caesars Palace, has become a must-see dining destination, much like the original New York City location. Changes at the popular eatery are currently underway, set to elevate the indoor and outdoor dining experience.

Exciting new features include a whimsical 26-ft. tall Tiffany-style lamp flanking the expanded outdoor patio, featuring vibrant pinks and oranges, color staples of the Serendipity 3 brand. The expanded strip facing patio now features a full bar complete with counter seating and several high definition televisions, providing guests a front-row view of the world-famous Las Vegas Strip and iconic Caesars Palace fountains.

The expanded interior space will now feature additional tables and seating, as well as floor to ceiling windows overlooking the beautiful scenery.  The imaginative décor features the well-known oversized lighting fixtures and a rainbow of colors to accent the interior. The inside of the restaurant now seats 148 patrons in classic white chairs with colorful adornments, reminiscent of the original shop.

Serendipity 3’s enhanced menu is the perfect blend of savory dishes to balance the indulgent dessert selections. Signature dishes such as “The One & Only Las Vegas Strip Steak Sandwich,” “Las Vegas Chicken Strips,” “All In Nachos” and “Deep Fried Oreos & Ice Cream” will remain as menu staples, while new additions add a twist to the classics, with unique ingredients and elevated presentation, all while keeping with the whimsical Serendipity 3 personality.

New and reimagined items include “Three Amigos Tacos,” chicken, beef or fish tacos accompanied with S3 signature garnishes and “Teenie Weenies,” a trio of Sabrett hot dog sliders, featuring one each of a Coney Island, Chicago and California style topped dog. The new seared salmon dish is vibrant and attractive, with fresh and crisp flavors composed of lavish cucumber laces, perfectly seared Atlantic salmon, complemented by an heirloom cherry tomato salad and a light horseradish dill cream sauce. The Fried Twinkie Sundae evokes nostalgic joy at first sight, drizzled in chocolate, butterscotch and marshmallow sauce, so be sure to save room for dessert!
   
Serendipity 3 is open Sunday through Thursday 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. and Friday and Saturday 8 a.m. to midnight. For reservations please call 702.731.7373.

Famed Chef Daniel Boulud's db Brasserie Now Open At The Venetian Las Vegas

Chef Daniel Boulud’s db Brasserie s officially now open  inside The Venetian® Las Vegas. The restaurant, which Boulud calls his ‘ideal brasserie’, is an updated version of French brasserie, with a contemporary twist and international appeal.  The opening marks one of the most anticipated culinary events of the year – Boulud’s return to the Las Vegas Strip.

“Like me, ‘the brasserie’ was born in France but has traveled the world,” says Boulud. “I wanted to create a menu with my favorite French dishes, charcuterie, shellfish—all the ‘brasserie staples’—and international flavors from my travels that are a bit exotic and transporting.”

Created in collaboration with Executive Chef David Middleton, the menu features Boulud’s version of Escargots Spätzle, Burgundy snail fricassée, chicken ‘oysters’, mushrooms, parsley coulis and hazelnut, Poissons Fumés, Balik smoked salmon, smoked sable rillettes, potato dauphine, salmon roe, preserved cucumber, dill, Crispy Duck Confit, swiss chard, turnip, trumpet royale mushrooms, onion rings, and of course Steak Frites ‘From the Grill.’ The classics fit seamlessly with newly-created dishes showcasing international flavors, found in dishes like Hamachi Cru, eggplant-cumin aigre doux, finger lime, harissa, shallots and Tunisian Lamb, roasted chop, merguez sausage, couscous, lemon braised spinach and chickpeas, red pepper tagine. Burger-lovers will delight in three of Boulud’s gourmet burgers: The Yankee, The Frenchie, and The Piggie, adapted from Boulud’s New York City-based restaurant, DBGB. Elegant desserts including “Le Président,” a chocolate-hazelnut mousse tart with coffee Chantilly and crunchy feuilletine and a Calisson-Strawberry ‘Sundae’  of melon sorbet, strawberries, and orange blossom-almond sablés provide the essential sweet finish.

db Brasserie boasts a wine list of approximately 300 international selections, curated by Boulud’s group Wine Director Daniel Johnnes and db Brasserie Sommelier Devin Zendel. The list pays special tribute to the glories of American Wine, which are presented in three categories: PIONEERS ‘the first to prove the quality of American terroir’; NEW FRONTIER ‘young wineries inspired by their old-world counterparts’; and CLASSICS ‘next generation American winemaking, classics in their own right’. Keeping with the tradition of Daniel Boulud’s restaurants, the list also features the best French producers from the storied regions of the Rhone Valley, Burgundy, Bordeaux, Alsace, the Loire Valley and the great Southern regions of Provence, the Languedoc and Roussillon. The list’s old world wines –French and ‘LeVoyage’ – are organized by region in the traditional fashion. db Brasserie also features a full cocktail list, with creations ranging from classic (Le Boulevardier, Bulleit Rye, Aperol, Carpano Antica Formula) to floral (The Peruvian Love, Barsol Pisco, Cointreau, Lime, Cranberry, Lavender Soda) to bubbly (Ménage À Trois, a tasting of three Champagne cocktails).

The spacious restaurant seats 280 diners, including two private dining rooms, as well as a casual bar and lounge. Designed by Jeffrey Beers International (JBI), the group took inspiration from classic brasseries in France to create a welcoming and convivial atmosphere. The exterior façade of db Brasserie has been clad in travertine limestone panels, a reference to the public buildings that house some of France’s classic brasseries from past centuries. The restaurant's centerpiece is an expansive faux-skylight reminiscent of those in classic Beaux-Arts train stations and restaurants. The design elements extend throughout the bar and lounge, as well as the private dining areas.


Located at the start of Restaurant Row, just off the casino floor, db Brasserie is accessible from both The Venetian and The Palazzo, with easy access from The Palazzo parking garage. db Brasserie is open seven days a week for dinner from 5 p.m. until 11 p.m., bar until 12 p.m. The restaurant will soon operate from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Reservations can be made by calling 702-430-1235.
