Keller To Lv

[Rail Paul]

I understand that "discussions are continuing" on Thomas Keller doing something in LV. The February issue of LV Life had a brief mention that TK and Boulud would set up shop in LV during 2003.

Of course, with the tourist traffic down, gaming revenues down, and SARS issues up, who knows?

As far as the quality of LV restaurants, I actually preferred the LV Aqua to the SF Aqua.

It just defies reason that he's making this hullabaloo about the New York thing but not uttering a peep about Las Vegas. And is he really going to pull a Vongrichten and open up two restaurants within the space of a year. I still say NOT.

If you check out The Venetian website Venetian Webpage, you will find information of TK's newest venture: a spin off of Bouchon. It will open in the new wing of the Venetian. Not a full scale French Laundry, but a bistro open from early to late.

Cheers,

Perry

But I tell you what if Thomas Keller associates himself with Las VEgas I'm quitting the biz and taking up cotton farming.

so when you give up whatever it is you're doing and become a cotton farmer, are you going to stop posting?

thanks.

don't tempt me. I'm a chef...and in this economy I may have to give it up. So I'm going to salt and pepper my own words and enjoy them as they slide down my jaded gullet. Thanks Tom.

Thanks

that info seems to wrap up several of the threads.

a keller property in the venetian, opening mid-2003. doesn't say so, but it would make sense to have josef at the helm.

let's see if it actually happens...
