I originally wanted to do brunch at Bouchon but they are closed on Mondays for brunch. BOO!
We ended up wondering around for a while and ended up here. (Lots of the nicer restaurants are not open at 11am on Mondays.)
Sitting "outside" in the Canal area at the Venetian is beautiful, the people watching and the performers are fun too.
To start off they gave us this bread but it was burnt?? The waiter tells us that "the crust is suppose to be that way." hmmm?? okay? I didn't get it, it tasted like burnt bread to me.
We ordered an Insalate- grilled radicchio with smoked mozzarella. This was good the cheese was baked on top with the crispy radicchio at the bottom. Yummy!
As the main entrees we had the Gemelli - house sausage and broccoli rabe. I love the gemelli noodles they were cooked perfectly, texture was just right and they had a unique shape. The other dish was the Bavette Cacio e Pepe- black pepper and percorino. A very simple dish however, full a flavor you can really taste the noodles but it was a salty.
The portions seem small when you look at them compared to how much pasta you get at other restaurants but, I was stuffed by the end of lunch. And you should be with a $50 lunch tab.
I wonder how B&B would be??? (A lot more expensive, I know that much) :P
