Bellagio Resort & Casino will celebrate its silver anniversary with a first-of-its-kind epicurean weekend October 13th to 15th. Chefs Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Michael Mina, and Julian Serrano are collaborating to create an exclusive dinner with each chef creating one of the courses.
The weekend sounds amazing, but the price tag is rather steep. Each person attending the weekend’s festivities will have to pony up $10,000. Here’s what is included:
Pappy Van Winkle Tasting at the Vault (October 13th)
Pappy Van Winkle is one of the world’s elite bourbon whiskies. The Vault, Bellagio’s exclusive cocktail lounge, which just opened in August will host the private tasting of fine and rare selections, along with specialty canapés created by Bellagio’s culinary team.

Anthony’s Take: This sounds like an incredible weekend. Bellagio is my favorite Las Vegas resort, but this price tag is a little out of my reach. I’ll have to raise a glass to the amazing resort (my full review here) on my next visit. Happy 25th, Bellagio!
