| - The most expensive meal we had in Vegas was at Social House, an Asian restaurant located inside Crystals at CityCenter. The interior of the restaurant was absolutely gorgeous. I have got to say, almost all the Vegas restaurants we visited had fantastic decor.
The menu is rather typical of a Japanese restaurant, sashimi, sushi, rolls, etc. Since this was our splurge meal of the trip, we opted for the Social House Omakase, at 95 USD per person. The Omakase consists of seven courses, chosen by the chef. The price is rather typical. You would expect a similar price point, give or take 20 dollars, to enjoy an Omakase in a Japanese restaurant in Toronto. Considering we are dining on the Las Vegas Strip, this is really not that bad.
Here are the seven courses, all were good:
First course: Yellowtail jalapeno
Second course: Albacore Garlic
Third course: Tuna Special
Fourth course: Citrus Peel Miso Cod
Fifth course: Sea Bass
Sixth course: Five-piece sushi
Seventh course: Strawberry sorbet
I need to clarify something. We put in the special request of "No red meat and no dairy", which was probably the reason behind the two consecutive cooked fish courses (4th and 5th) and the sorbet for dessert. Hey, what else are a non-redmeat-eater supposed to eat, if not more fish? Certainly not their Spicy Ponzu Kobe Sashimi or their Hanger Steak with roasted shallot and Wasabi cream sauce! Sorry for teasing you with delicious sounding dishes. :P
Please come and visit my blog, where I have pictures of every course and more ;)
Thanks in advance.
