| - Chef Joël Robuchon is better known as the chef of the century because he has the most Michelin stars than any other chef in the world! He currently holds a total of 25 stars combined at all of his restaurants, which is truly incredible. We decided to leave Chef Robuchon's 3-Michelin Starred restaurant for our next trip(?) and opted for the L'Atelier. The degustation menu at Joël Robuchon is roughly $500/person(!!) while the L'Atelier has their degustation menu under $200/person. The price tag is still quite expensive for one person, but we really wanted to try Chef Robuchon...so we saved up for a few months and treated ourselves to it!
The menu at L'Atelier is filled with so many good things...from their classic degustation menu, prix fixe, à la carte, and their saison (seasonal) menu! What's great at L'Atelier is that you can customize your prix fixe from a selection of dishes that the restaurant offers! After knowing that there was a separate seasonal tasting menu at L'Atelier, we decided to try the seasonal discovery menu instead of the degustation. For 9 plates, it is priced at $168/person. This works out to on average of $18.70/dish!
We were seated at the bar, and so we were able to have a great view of their open kitchen. All the chefs were working very hard, and because it was an open kitchen, they were all very quiet. None of the yelling/screaming going on here! This probably made it much more difficult for the chefs, because it would've been much harder to communicate with each other through the quiet working conditions.
Upon ordering, we were brought house bread which had a combination of 3 different rolls. We didn't eat too much because we knew we had a great journey of food ahead of us, :D but my favourite was the classic baguette and buttery croissant.
We didn't order any wine to go with our tasting menu because to be honest, the total bill would've been too expensive, so I ordered one of their cocktails instead. Concentrated on the fruit yuzu and blueberries, it was very refreshing! Fruity to the taste, it was well made and it also lasted me throughout the whole dinner.
Overall, our experience at L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon was one of the best dining experiences we've had so far during our culinary travels together. We both agree that it was worth the price for the gastronomy and culinary professionalism that we saw and experienced. Every dish we enjoyed had a WOW factor, and everything was cooked, plated, and served perfectly. The service we received was also top notch, as all of the servers were polite and attentive, and so we left the restaurant happy. Next time we are in Vegas, we would definitely revisit the restaurant for their regular à la carte menu or customize a prix fixe because everything on their menu looked incredible.
