What are the five best things to order at Pinot Brasserie?

  1. Pinot Brasserie specializes in California-French cuisine from celebrity chef Joachim Splichal, and it offers a number of signature items that we think you’ll want to check out. Here’s our list of the five best things to order at the Las Vegas restaurant:

    1. Lobster bisque. This buttery bowl is anything but a soup starter. It’s made with lobster medallions and crème fraîche, and we have to admit, we sopped up every last bit with our bread.

    2. Belgian endive salad. Made with truffled Belgian endive, shaved foie gras terrine and a port reduction, this salad will make you forget about your typical Caesar or house offerings.

    3. Braised pork belly. If you dig the other white meat, we recommend this rich cut, which is made with onion marmalade, pickled vegetables and caper berries.

    4. Roasted chicken. This half a chicken, prepared with mushroom fricassée and Pinot garlic fries, gives you one of the best items from the ovens of this Las Vegas restaurant.

    5. Crème brûlée. Call us suckers for the sweet stuff, but we don’t think you can ever go wrong ordering this classic custard at a brasserie like Pinot.
