This was our last stop on our last night in Vegas, and what a fabulous way to end the trip, too. The Chandelier sits near the front part of Cosmopolitan (if you're entering from Las Vegas Boulevard and, as the name suggests, is a bar inside a huge chandelier. At the first level, you get tremendous vantage points for people-watching, particularly the gamblers in the casino. Then, as you walk up through the circular staircase (or take the clear-glass elevators), you witness a whole different jungle, this time of men and women clearly out on the prowl. It's so fascinating watching girls of differing heel heights and skirt lengths (or really, no skirt at all) clacking their way up to men of differing ego sizes and hair-gel viscosity. It sucks that smoking is still allowed inside buildings in LV, but I suppose it's the price you pay to witness this great human experiment happening around us. The drinks were pricey but also well-crafted and creative, with a different menu on every level. Eclectic bitters and herbs, sophisticated liquors, and curious techniques (like egg white froth?) create interesting cocktails that are the perfect accompaniment to an endlessly entertaining people watching experience inside this gorgeous setting.
