| - If Las Vegas is about excess, a great way to splurge is at Jean Philippe. If you're particularly friendly, you can meet some great people while standing in line here. And the day I visited, they were quite busy but it was ok as a nice Texan lady and I oohed and aahed over some of exquisite delicacies in the pastry case.
I kick myself now as I should have bought some Macarons and chocolate that were in gift boxes along the walls, because the thought of the decadent treat I enjoyed there puts me back in my cloudy state of desert bliss. There is limited seating inside so I took my treat to a table just outside JP, right by the windows overlooking the pool.
The Bellagio was a crazy mess of tourists that day, but each bite of the dessert trio sent me into a state of total relaxation. The dessert trio comprised of a mini creme brulee (with the cutest little silver plastic spoon), a raspberry French Marcaron, a Chocolate cake pop with a bit of nutella and caramel. All served on top of thin plank of milk chocolate. This is so rich, but so awfully good, every bite to be savored. The flavors so delicious and fresh, textures are perfect. Well-executed in every way.
Service is friendly. Take some time to check out the world's largest chocolate fountain in the glass case.
