| - Ok first off this place is just way too foo foo for me as a guy, but for the women it's bright colorful and cheery, you'll love it.
The pastries are simply superb and the cakes are artistic masterpieces, with prices to match, but if that's your thing and price is no object... go for it.
Ok so we ordered three croissants, one was original (plain) and the other was an almond covered and finally a chocolate chip filled.
The flakiness on all three were excellent and I must say that it lived up to what we were told about them, for me they were the best tasting croissants I have ever tasted.
We were told about this place because of the worlds largest chocolate fountain and that in itself was well worth seeing, a very dazzling display.
It had glass bowls shaped and made to look like large ice chip shaped bowls.
There are three different types of chocolate flowed from three separate chrome rectangular spouts, White, Dark, and Milk Chocolate.
Ok, so the croissants were excellent, they had just the right flakiness and they were very fresh tasting, the glaze on them was perfect and not to thick and sticky. The almonds were slivered and not to many, just the right amount to have flavor in every bite. The chocolate chips were also evenly distributed and did not overwhelm the flavor of the croissant at all.
We also ordered the coffee, it was great, smooth and full flavored, seconds were in order for sure.
I took back to the hotel (for my after dinner dessert snack) a Chocolate/Coconut Macaroon. It was about the size of a golf ball.
I'm glad it wasn't bigger because it would have been a shame to throw it all away, Sorry to say the flavor combo here just didn't work for me. Not that I like it very sweet, but the something was missing, maybe the flavor of the chocolate was too bitter, but I'll have to say personally I would not get this again.
When we go back to Vegas we will definitely return here, there are so many more things to try. They also have Gelato, bottled chocolate from the fountain, Macaroons, custom cakes (large and small of all styles and ideas imaginable). It was all decked out in fall decor, the staff was helpful but a bit on the rude side.
It's a small shop so it get's really over crowded very fast, not much seating inside but there are small tables outside of it down the hall, but I think they are for the restaurant patrons?
So all in all it's a must try.
