But I think they offer half sizes and are willing to do a make your own tasting menu. Otherwise, they do have a tasting menu, IIRC, it’s $385 |
That is much more reasonable than I had remembered. I must have been thinking of one of the other super chefs in Vegas whose tasting menu was more like $700 or so...

Maybe Joel Robuchon? That place is just as expensive, maybe more Back on topic, I'm actually back in Vegas in April and am wondering whether it's worthwhile going to any of the serious restaurants there. I did the Joel Robuchon Atelier last year after I couldn't stomach the cost of Robuchon's proper place, but it's still on my to do list after a delayed flight caused me to miss a booking there a few years ago. |

I might have been thinking of Twist by Pierre Gagnaire, though his premium tasting menu comes with matched wines for the $777, so I guess it's a bit of a steal.

If you’re going to one of them I’d pick Guy Savoy. You could do some half portions from the a la carte menu. |

Going to Italy next month. Going to be traveling from Rome stopping by Florence, Venice, and ending in Milan. I have reservations at La Pergola in Rome and Vun in Milan and I'm trying to get a seat at Osteria Francescana. Any where else I should hit up?

i highly recommend 2* Il Luogo di Aimo e Nadia in Milan. One of the best 2* restaurants I’ve ever enjoyed. Truly sublime, comparable in excellence IMO to Le Calandre. In Rome, we didn’t try La Pergola, but we very much enjoyed 2* Il Pagliaccio and 1* La Terrazza. |
I’ll second Le Calendre, and would even go so far as to say we much preferred it to Francescana.

I think Narisawa is a 2 star now. They're both different styles and I enjoy them both. I'd say go with Narisawa since you already did Ryugin.

I actually booked both for my upcoming stay in Tokyo...I enjoyed Ryugin a lot - both the atmosphere and food, but that was over a year ago and in fall, so I am curious to see what their spring menu would be...and Narisawa is something new for me this time, so I am glad to hear positive confirmation of my choice

I think Il Cibreo in Florence is a can't miss. Discussed upthread I think or possibly on a thread elsewhere. I don't think it is Michelin rated but I wouldn't pay any attention to that.

I had a lovely lunch today at 2 Michelin star Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons in Oxfordshire. I had read mixed reviews but this was stunning! I now have a new appreciation for quail. This meal was probably better food-wise than my meal at The Fat Duck 2 weeks ago and far far better value.
