This is a pretty big deal. Chef Thomas Keller plans to be in the house for a very intimate dinner at Bouchon on Aug. 29. Only 25 seats are available for this event, part of the Venetian and Palazzo’s Carnevale.
It kicks off with a canape reception with Keller himself, followed by a seated dinner with each course paired with a wine. A bevy of Bouchon chefs are coming in to prepare each of the dishes.
And for a mere $195, you can be a part of it. That doesn’t include tax and gratuity, but it does include an autographed copy of the Bouchon cookbook.
Nab tickets (quickly) by contacting Debbie Cardenas or Angela Johnson at 702-414-6251 or via email at dcardenas@bouchonbistro.com or
ajohnson@bouchonbistro.com.
