Dinner at the Eiffel Tower

For our last night in Vegas we decided to glam up and head to an amazing restaurant.
The Eiffel tower is part of this amazing complex, so we only had to walk a short distance.

So the girls outdid themselves and again looked sensational and very yummy.

Even before we sat at the table, there was a sense this would be a more expensive meal than Maccas.
We checked in at the left at the bottom of the Eiffel Tower, where someone greeted us, and organised a lift for us.
Then we were met by someone when the lift opened, who then showed us to the restaurant.
They then introduced us to someone who showed us to our seat.
We were then met by our waiter for the evening… Glad we didn’t have to tip all along the way.

Once we were seated at our table we had to do the photo thing...

The table setting was very impressive. Although the red plates were of show only. Once we ordered, those plates quickly disappeared.

The view over Vegas was stunning.

Deciphering the menu was a whole night’s entertainment by itself. In case we could not understand anything in the menu, there was a translation in French in about 6 point font.
The wine menu would take days to get through, and years to pay off for some of the wines.
We needed up with a ‘cheapie’ $100 bottle of 2006 St. Clements Cab Sav from Napa Valley.
It was a beautiful drop though.

The food was divine… Never had a blue cheese soufflĂ© pudding for entree before.

Because Rel’s birthday is coming up she was given a special treat at the end of the meal.

One of the most amazing meal experiences we have ever had.
The service was so impressive too.
They even had staff who opened the toilet door for you, and handed you a fresh towel when you had finished. But who goes to the toilet expecting to tip. :-0


And how much did this whole meal cost us? As they say ‘what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas’!
