Dining at Chef Thomas Keller's Las Vegas restaurant, Bouchon, brings back delightful memories of the culinary delights Bon Voyage Friends have enjoyed during our travels to Paris.
Famed celebrity reporter, Robin Leach interviewed Chef Thomas Keller, in celebration of Buchon’s 10th Anniversary at the Venetian Las Vegas, the 20th Anniversary of French Laundry in Napa, and 13 years of Per Se in New York. The article was originally published in the Las Vegas Sun, on January 24, 2014. The excerpt below gives a glimpse of the distinction Chef Keller’s reputation has brought to Las Vegas.

Service
The management team and staff during our dining experience were great. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and so personable! Nicole, the manager on duty and Eric, the Sommelier exceeded our expectations. Nicole ensured we had a wonderful dining experience and Eric's passion is evident in his vast knowledge and expertise. Service is absolutely essential for any positive dining experience. Sometimes, all patrons are viewed as just visitors, which is not fair tourists or locals and its easy to have a lack luster experience. This was not the case during our Sunday brunch experience. Thank you to Nicole, Eric, and the entire staff!
Menu and Pricing
The menu has a wide range of options and offers great variety to appeal to any palate. Prices for brunch ranges from $12.00-$33, there are also many accompaniments to delight anything you fancy. See what we enjoyed in the pictures below.

We had a wonderful sampling of the menu and enjoyed everything we tried. From the delicious parfait with house made granola to the perfectly cooked and seasoned trout, it was a grand experience. Compliments to Chef Keller and the entire culinary team! C'est Magnifique.
