Legendary chef and restaurant namesake André Rochat, considered the first Las Vegas celebrity chef, puts his special spin on Thanksgiving. Showcasing his culinary expertise, Rochat weaves innovation into traditional turkey day fare with decidedly sophisticated touches.
The multi-course Thanksgiving menu begins with American caviar and scarlet runner bean soup with a smoked foie gras mousse. Guests will also indulge in the flavor of Andre’s lobster sausage with grilled endive and a spicy crawfish sauce.
Thanksgiving traditionalists can enjoy a main course of Andre’s oven roasted, free-range turkey served with an herb-nut and dried fruit stuffing, giblet gravy, sweet potato purée, brussels sprouts, roasted chestnuts and just the right amount of tangy cranberry relish. Guests looking for an different take on the holiday, can choose either Scottish salmon served with an aromatic jasmine rice and bamboo shrimp with red curry sauce or for a more hearty take, Andre’s is offering prime Angus rib-eye with a mushroom fricassee, pomme purée black truffle and foie gras sauce. The holiday meal also includes a red and green Belgium endive salad with gruyere cheese and a mild mustard dressing.
No holiday meal is complete without something sweet. Dessert choices include an apple tarte tatin with creme anglaise and Calvados ice cream or warm, pecan pie with rum raisin ice cream and creme fraiche, pumpkin pie with cinnamon ice cream and vanilla anglaise or warm cherry and chocolate cobbler with brown sugar ice cream.
The chef-selected Thanksgiving meal will be served on Thursday, Nov. 25, 2010 from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. The cost is $75 per person. Guests may call (702) 798-7151 for reservations or more information.
