| - Squeezed in here by the fine hairs of my chin after the Celine concert at Ceasar's!! Delighted they let me in, seated in the loungey bar area, appreciating the May-opened first presence of someone that I actually oddly and inexplicably respect: Gordon Ramsay.
He inspired a 2nt/3day jaunt to London a few years ago, in fact. The odd things I manage to do on a whim.
No steak had I at 2230 in the evening, but the steak dishes of neighboring patrons digging in looked and smelled quite beefy!! Myself, asked the chef for a special. Am a humongous fan of Scotch eggs ( tribute to Ramsay's humble origins), and I have never had a quail egg prepared in that style. It being the amuse on the tasting menu, I actually got a "Yes", and it was made for me. Together with the $25 seared foie gras with pea sprouts, homemade berry compote, and the best mini homemade crumpets to write him and tell one's city about! Unfortunately, the sear touch was amiss and didnt sit in a hit enough pan. I prefer the texture of my fg a bit more done as well.
Like the interior of the restaurant inside the Paris, Has nice touches, classy....dark, the way I like it.
So happy I decided last minute to cross the street and see if I could get in: wonderful nightcap snack..a treat.
