Fraiche Food Friday: Wicked Spoon

 I am not usually a fan of buffets but before heading to Las Vegas I took some time

to read about several places that were of note, especially within my hotel.

Wicked Spoon was apparently one of them.

Not your traditional buffet, the portions were individual and of fantastic 

quality. No spooning your eggs out of a mass vat here or harsh heat lamps.

For example; look at the above mini eggs benny!?

 Egg white with mushroom and spinach

Each table was given a large glass bottle of Aquahealth water and of course

unlimited coffee, juices etc and if you paid a bit extra, 

unlimited mimosas, bloody mary's or champs!

Egg & candied bacon salad with sweet 100's and avocado vinaigrette     I rolled into the restaurant around 9:30 because I woke up hungry and wanted to make sure we had prime seating. About 10 minutes later the line  curled out almost all the way to the elevators.      

 I'm a sucker for miniature versions of things..

these takeout boxes were no exception.

 Korean bbq!

Miniature fried chicken drumsticks that come in your own little fryer basket

  Prosciutto pizza that was AMAZING

Duck confit ravioli with sage (sweet and savory perfection!

 

Angry Mac n Cheese

 (not sure what was angry about it, it made me quite happy..)

 

Beet and arugula salad

 

I loved that even though it was morning there were excellent lunch options which I sampled without holding back (it was for research!)
Other dishes of note: the chicken apple sausage was heavenly, mini croissants, hash, fruit/cheese bar, sausage station in general, asian fusion area and a carving station.

I had read that Wicked Spoon previously did not have labels on everything to encourage conversation about the food. That has since changed which made things pretty convenient.

The service was impeccable - I would return indefinitely and recommend it highly if and when you return to Vegas next!
