More Good Food

Bad news - I've been traveling a lot.
Good news - I've been eating well.

Besides eating breakfast every day at Bouchon while I was away, I also had dinner at Cut and Tao while in Vegas. I highly recommend both, if money's no object.

Cut's a Wolfgang Puck steakhouse. I'm no stranger to nice steakhouses after years of living, schmoozing and recruiting in Texas. Cut's the real deal. Spectacular cuts, cooked perfectly, accompanied with outstanding salads, sides and desserts. Very high on my steakhouse list.

Tao's an Asian fusion place in the Palazzo. We had three things that were magnificent. We had the Toro, which as far as I know is the pinnacle of sashimi, some sort of filet mignon done up with a wasabi/panko crust and, best of all, some sort of fish done miso-style. If you haven't had miso black cod and want to do it on a budget, you can actually get it at Costco. Still not cheap, and lots of it, but much cheaper than the alternatives. Let me know if it's any good.

Next up: NYC. Bad news - getting in late and leaving before dinner, so no excuse to eat real food.
