| - Desperate for some brunch grub after a long night and a pounding headache... Bouchon seemed like the perfect place to go, since it's conveniently located in the Venetian, where we stayed for the weekend.
Despite my hangover, the food was delicious! I stayed on the safe side and had an American breakfast even though I was in a French restaurant... yes, a bit lame. But that seemed to be the most appetizing thing for me. I didn't have much of an appetite, so I boxed about half of it. And even a few hours later, it still tasted amazing cold! Haha. I know... I felt like I wasted my money on food I could make easily at home, but oh well.
The croissants are to die for. So flaky, buttery, and bad for you... but man, worth it. I don't normally eat bacon but I caved in and ate them since they couldn't substitute it with anything else unless they charge you extra. The eggs were fluffy and they even took my nit-picky requests of egg whites only.
I'd totally come back here for the croissants... At that time I wasn't feeling adventurous with French cuisine (most likely because of my nauseous state) but I'll def be back to try them! I was also surprised the place wasn't packed and crowded. The restaurant itself isn't probably known for its breakfast... I'm a bit bummed they didn't have the chicken and waffles on the brunch menu as others have mentioned =(
Our server was also super nice and gave great recommendations! And she was very patient with me, especially in my unpleasant state. I felt bad and hope she didn't think I wasn't enjoying my food =X I did thoroughly enjoy the leftovers, though!
