Bon Appetit Magazine hosted the annual four day epicurean event called Vegas Uncork’d in Las Vegas, bringing out the legendary chefs in the culinary world. Many iconic chefs, including Emeril Lagasse, Guy Savoy, Wolfgang Puck, Gordon Ramsay and Julian Serrano were in attendance and mingled with the guests at Lago in the Bellagio, The Old Homestead Steakhouse and Borders Grill inside Caesars Palace, Emeril’s New Orleans Fish House at MGM Grand and The Buffet at Aria.

 

Ribs and Burgers was a favorite spot and the Australian Style Cooking was delicious and had large crowds in front of their booth to taste the meats.

 

Carmines had the most delicious Eggplant Parmesan and Italian Meatballs as their special offerings. The aromas from the Italian cooking drew everyone over to eat their samples. It felt like we were strolling through the streets of Italy.

 

 

The Chefs dressed the plates like a painted canvas with colorful food perfectly arranged and to go with this wonderful food was the free flowing wine and spirits. More than 75 award winning chefs were there to celebrate, including Emeril Lagasse, Guy Savoy, Mary Sue Milliken, Susan Feigner Wolfgang Puck, Gordon Ramsay and more.

 

One of my favorite booths that I go to first is Celebrity Chef Gordon Ramsay BurGR. The gourmet burger delights are one of the best hamburgers that are cooked over an open flame. Much to my delight I took a picture with Gordon Ramsay which I will now add to my celebrity scrap book. I love Gordon Ramsay and that is one reason I always go to the luxurious Garden of the Gods Pool Oasis at Caesars when Vegas Uncork’d holds its annual “Grand Tasting” star studded culinary event.
