"2017-10-21T00:00:00"^^ . "Perfection in terms of baked goods. I'm always tempted by the goodies here anytime I'm in Vegas for the weekend. It doesn't help that I always stay at the Venetian or Palazzo. \n\nWhat I usually get:\n- Macarons: these are PURE PERFECTION. They also have a super cute box of mini macarons of 6 for $18\n- Kouign Amann: I've been on a Great British Bakeoff kick lately and this was one of the challenges. I was curious to know what it tasted like, so I jumped at a chance to try it when I saw it. This was so flaky, sweet, crispy, delicate. I really like Bouchon's version (that lamination!)\n- Epi bread: If you've ever eaten at Bouchon, you know their version of baguette bread. Sprinkled with a little water, and a few minutes in the toaster oven and it's like you're eating it fresh! Or you can just eat it fresh in your hotel room. I always ask them for butter and jam to go. \n- Chocolate Chip Cookie: this is a chocolate chip cookie. It's literally perfect. It's got the crispy edges, the sharp bitter chocolate, the chewy and tender inside. When I crave a chocolate chip cookie, this is the one I want. \n\nPros:\n- Literally everything in the display case looks freaking amazing, and taste delicious. DELICIOUS! \n- Perfect snack to nibble on during the drive back home\n\nCons:\n- Great deliciousness comes with great price. It's not as cheap as your corner donut shop, but honestly, why not treat yourself a little during your stay in Vegas? DO IT! TREAT YO'SELF!\n\nWould I come again? I ALWAYS DO! #carblife"^^ .
