808: Jean-Marie Josselin does Caesars Palace

Luxury Dining: Caesars Palace's 808 offers a scrumptious Euro-Pacific-inspired menu stemming from celebrity chef Jean-Marie Josselin. The prestigious James Beard Foundation has nominated Monsieur Josselin six times for the award of Best Chef of Pacific/Northwest. Wok-Charred Mahi Mahi is probably his most-celebrated dish. It is a delicacy on the island of Kauai. Josselin's recipe for the entrée has been either published or broadcasted over the years by numerous reputed gastronomical-info sources.

The 808's current menu is comprised of various signature dishes that incorporate the France-born executive chef?s diverse background. Although it is decidedly a Hawaiian-themed menu, it draws deliciously from the cooking styles of China, France, Italy, India, Japan, and Thailand. Sesame-crusted Mahi Mahi, Deconstructed Ahi Roll, Stir Fried Maine Lobster, and Grilled Ono (hold the Yoko!) are a few of the favorite appetite-whetting seafood selections.

The Chef de Cuisine, Wesley Coffel, presents meaty selections of duck, beef, chicken, and lamb to tastefully counterbalance the magnificent seafood offerings. Mr. Coffel, who has worked in tandem with Jean-Marie for years, adds his magical touch with the Roasted Filet, Roasted Free Range Chicken, Grilled Hunan Style Lamb Chops, and Grilled Niman Ranch Pork Chops. 808's desserts are a mix of tropical fruits, ice cream, and irresistible rich sweets.

Along with being recognized by the James Beard Foundation for culinary excellence, Josselin's accomplishments have been touted by Condé Nast Traveler, Food & Wine, and Bon Appetit magazines. MSNBC.com also has offered up heaping helpings of praise to his tasteful recipes. Additionally, he is the author of the highly praised cookbook A Taste of Hawaii.

The 808?s capacity is approximately 100 patrons. To ensure getting a table reservation for one of Caesar's busiest restaurants, check out LuxeVegas' VIP concierge service. Aloha!
