The Cosmopolitan
The Cosmopolitan has a three-story bar contained within a giant crystal chandelier. It is a modern and ultra luxe oasis at the heart of the action on the Strip.
Bellagio
Over a thousand fountains dance to light and music every 15 minutes during the day and 30 minutes at night. Inside the lobby, Dale Chihuly’s 2,000 colorful, hand-blown, glass flowers hang from the ceiling.
The Venetian
Famous landmarks from Venice decorate the exterior. Inside, the ceiling is painted like the daytime sky and gondolas float through a sparkling blue canal.
Caesar’s Palace
Indulge in the regal settings of the Roman Empire at its peak. Recreations of famous paintings and sculptures set the stage.FOOD
China Poblano
Jose Andres offers innovative tacos and noodles. The Viva China taco is a twist on Peking duck, with thinly-sliced crispy beef tendons instead of duck skins. A tortilla stands in for the crepe and the raw oyster is a pleasant surprise.
Miznon
Head to Miznon for elevated street food. It’s all about the pita, so thick and fluffy anything would taste good in it. The grilled lamb kebab is juicy. Tomatoes, onions, and pickles are so crunchy. Spicy green peppers and tahini burst with flavor.
Lobster Tail
At Carlo’s Bakery, the lobster tail pastry is a riff on sfogiatella. They pull dough in cascading layers resembling a lobster tail. The crunchy shell is dusted with sugar. The custard with French cream is thick, sweet, and creamy.
Cronut
Try a cronut by Dominique Ansel, the inventor of the cronut. The laminated pastry dough is fried, filled with cream, and glazed. The texture is dense, flaky, airy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The bakery offers seasonal varieties.
Verbena
At the Chandelier Bar, try the not-so-secret Verbena. Take a sip and note its citrusy flavors. Bite the petals of the Szechuan button. Your tongue feels tingly. Now taste the drink again. The flavor of the yuzu, verbena, tequila, and ginger are vibrant and electric.
