as you know we like to try some of their signature cocktails recommended by our hosts and waiters so
i can't wait to try that one i'm waiting for it okay leave it to your waiter to bring you
something so pretty that you don't want to even drink it now this is a drifter that looks like
it's gonna definitely do some drifting for you exactly and according to our waiter there's a
special edition knob creek bourbon in here so this would be really really special uh with some ginger
liqueur right and some bitters there's another ingredient too which i didn't recognize i think
it's a fatherhood valor now yeah something to that i can't i'm not sure exactly what it is
if you guys know what that is let us know below it smells amazing and now i end up getting what is uh
there's strawberry martini now it's a sort of kettle one with a basil syrup and of course come
on you guys look at this look at that little strawberry deliciousness cut to perfection
it smells really good has like a sweet kind of aroma let's give it a try i think you should
start when you start yeah all right well cheers real cheering cheers cheers to a great night
yeah that's good wow that is really good it has a really fresh taste of strawberry in there
nice punch the kettle wine vodka they don't chin from the vodka it might look tiny but
this drink is sure mighty awesome all right give it a try all right here we
go hold on tears again again here we go cheers my dear let me see what you think
thank you it's really smooth incredibly smooth
right sometimes the bourbon is really kind of sharp and strong and this is not at all really
nice and it really tastes the bitters in there and that and the ginger liqueur is real a really
nice blend you're gonna love this i think you're gonna love this and this is my jam too it's not
too sweet right right i don't like the sweet springs now just so you guys know
these drinks are 19 so they're not cheap but what's nice about them is they're strong
all right you guys so we're just gonna actually talk about a couple things really quick so
like a lot of restaurants here in vegas and other places i'm sure you have the qr code
scan where you can basically scan your dinner menu and beverage menu we prefer this guy right
here oh yeah you can read this easier to read the paper yes so we are starting off tonight
with a couple of recommendations actually one of my favorite things to do is the oysters so
we are going with a half dozen oysters they have east coast and west point uh west coast oysters
and that just so you're aware is 23 95 or a half dozen and our waiter recommended an appetizer said
they had a great pork belly appetizer which sounds great to us right so we ordered a pork
belly appetizer it has creamy polenta and a bunch of other things on the uh list as well yeah all
right so let me actually go through let me go through the menu of the ingredients let's see
if it has pekio and forgive the pronunciation all right here we go the piquillo puree hey of course
creamy polenta nine jingle bell pepper jardiniere shallot marmalade and smoked butter pork juice
nice my mouth is already watering right it's like and it's not just after trying your incredible
drink it's just after you pronounce all those delicious ingredients in that pork belly
i can do it again and we're just getting started guys i already know what these are gonna taste
like yeah phenomenal but this is nice and hot i'm gonna slide these big boys to the side
and slide this one right on over towards us and we're gonna do a like we talked about
a sharing kind of experience i like the sound of that so uh shall we dive into this together
smell it i mean it smells incredible guys you ordered this one i mean good
golly miss molly i got some of this smoked pork butter juice
it smells really good the polenta got some of that in there all right i'm not gonna mess
that's okay get some of the pepper as long as the mess ends up right in your mouth
mmm that's a great dish it tastes so good the pork belly is so tender it has the right amount
of fat in it right just so much flavor from that fat and it's just so good mixed with polenta
and of course the uh kind of that butter pork juice as well you're right i am so about that
and it was like that first bite actually had that crunch there's a little crunchy layer like right
on top and you're right the fat if you notice like there's like that second layer in there
there's a little bit of that you know that fattiness inside of that pork which really brings
out the flavor with the crunch you nailed it with this one so now we are definitely under your jet
okay this is definitely my jam i know dave you're not going to be diving into this one but i just
want to give it a shot and see what they're like here now these blue points are humongous
but i think what's nice is to give these a try with some of the different sauces that they have
now they have that traditional cocktail sauce but it's their signature cocktail sauce that has
some tabasco in it then they have the champagne minuet which is another kind of great addition
to the oysters with some uh some really kind of nice little radishes in there and then of course
you have that delicious soy you want to try maybe the champagne all right go for that which i'm sure
is going to have a really sort of like a vinegar vibe which is kind of my jam all right here we go
you know it goes down super smooth absolutely love it i
think that's probably gonna be one of my favorite really light in terms of texture
it goes down really really smooth and that's all you can basically say about that it just goes down
smooth and the sauces work well that's my jam so i gave in to trying the west coast because
shawn one of our gracious hosts here said they're really sweet textures so i just had to try them so
we brought over a couple for us to try and these are west coast they're sort of kumikos they call
them but got a meteor texture sweetness from what he says and the favorite choice
dipping sauce is going to be the champagne minuet you want to try i'm you try it
another one smooth but it has a meteor sweet taste of that
the uh champagne minuet really does complement that you know with a little bit of crunch of
those radishes in there i think that is spot on delicious absolutely delicious turn it up world
so this is of course the saffron risotto appetizer and it's really for two as you
can see it's a really good portion and it smells amazing and actually it's made with diver scallops
it's got the tomato relish ricotta salata and of course the crispy prosciutto and the truffles
the truffles just really making what's nice about the truffles is once they're shaved fresh
on top the heat really does bring out that extra texture and flavor and you can just
smell the truffles it has such a rich aroma finding one of our favorite dishes
at the hell's kitchen is a risotto yes the lobster risotto which is so good so cheers
this is a wonderful dish again i mean i'm sounding repetitive but this is great now i just kind of
tried it without the truffle this is going to see what not the name it hasn't it still has a really
great taste so if you're not a truffle person this is still a really good dish the flavor
is that risotto and creaminess the texture is wonderful i do think the truffle adds a bit more
depth and dynamic to it but without it it's still pretty pretty good that says it all right there
so a couple things i want to mention while we sit here and have our delicious chateau buena vista
which is a napa valley red wine kind of cabernet sauvignon is they do have and i'm picking it up
it's a smaller menu here but they do have a five course option here which will run you a tasting
menu of 155 per person if you want to pair that with wine it's an additional 75 dollars per person
so here they also have a five course pairing option right and let's not forget that service
time yet the service has been really good here tonight and uh we have to say that they're very
knowledgeable the staff is very knowledgeable so don't be afraid to ask questions if you come in
don't maybe know the cut to be you know ask the staff here they've given us some great
recommendations and so definitely definitely don't be afraid to ask questions welcome to the main
event so we are getting ready to try for the first time the japanese a5 wagyu here we've had american
wagyu which is great delicious but there's nothing better than japanese a5 it's really the pinnacle
when it comes to beef and steak oh yeah carmelization is just it's just incredible
normalization right like a lean and delicious sort of fat that really complements the meat
now it doesn't come cheap no it does not actually as a matter of fact it is 40.95
an ounce you guys so it's not cheap right so if you want something that is actually
very good or maybe not as expensive as a japanese v5 you can try the american wagyu and the american
wagon rib cap is highly recommended here you have eight ounces and i think it's like 85 95
or so exactly right so you know still not inexpensive but it's a great cut of meat
here it is wow i'm just ready to dive right into this i mean it looks
absolutely perfect it looks juicy and tender and i hope it tastes the way it looks
one more piece
yeah this is an amazing amazing kind of and it really does melt in your mouth just amazing just
incredible flavor and all really that fat i mean i just found it just kind of melt away
it's really a unique flavor yeah i really have to agree with dave on that one the melting in
your mouth is absolutely delicious but i think what even complements that is that
crispy charred top yeah i love it it really brings out the flavor of that and it just i
don't know i don't even know how to explain it it just there's so much dancing going on in here i am
i'm satisfied i mean that's incredible it's really good it's different from any other
cut of beef you're going to have it really is i mean that is a unique experience i've never
tasted anything like this i know and it's just the way it's so tender that fat is so it's not like
it doesn't taste like like a fatty piece but it's all kind of blended in the whole
the meat it's literally like one pass with the knife spot on wow that is so good
that is really good let me tell you if you know what break dancing is that's breakdancing in
your mouth i feel like my dad's my son do it justice then just let it happen in your mouth
that japanese a5 walk you steak was excellent and it did pair nicely with the grilled asparagus
cucumber salad and of course the special steak sauce inside of wasabi and with all
the talk from the staff about how incredible their desserts are we just couldn't pass up
an opportunity to give that a try this is their uh sort of bonnefy which is kind of like their
banana fosters like it's got like cream and banana and white chocolate and it's just
it's a lot of goodness going on in here for sure so and it's actually new on the menu as
of last week uh that cream sauce the caramel cream sauce the banana and of course you gotta
have that white wafer now i've already dived into this y'all let's be honest look at it here we go
that is so good
really light not heavy at all definitely has a smooth sort of vibe
the caramel sauce from that banana fosters little caramel bits on top and that white
chocolate wafer which is basically a white chopped piece of white chocolate
shaped like a wafer absolutely now we're told this is the best tikkitabi pudding
in las vegas we'll be the judge for that i want to try some of this with it you forgot the cake
you have that caramel flavor the warm sticky toffee pudding and of course this you know it's
really wonderful that brown butter ice cream ice cream that contrast with the cold with the warm is
really nice i tell you this sticky toppy pudding desserts never get old at gordon ramsay and here
