California Dreaming Tasting Event
1228 Main in Las Vegas
This Wolfgang Puck offshoot in Sin City's Arts District caught our eye pretty immediately after opening, what with its spots on Eater’s “Hottest in Vegas” List and Thrillist’s “All-Time Greatest in Vegas” lists. That being said, nothing we read from the food experts could have prepared us for how blown away Culinary Director and Chef Dustin Lewandowski's team would leave us by evening's end. With dish after dish of gorgeously plated delights - not to mention incredible stories from Chef Lewandowski - we and our members ate this night right up up. Then again, we guess Thrillist didn't call them an ALL-TIME great for nothing though!
To get a glimpse of this 5-Star evening, just scroll down to see photos, as well as read up on the top three courses (as determined by the post-event feedback left by guests on their feedback cards):
