Walked back to the Bellagio, about a 45 minute walk. The neon and bizarre architecture made the walk enjoyable, much more so than during the day. We had a very late dinner at the Bellagio's signature restaurant, Picasso. Its gimmick is that is has some Picasso paintings on the wall, but that adds very little to the overall experience. The room itself, however, is quite elegant, faux rustic beams, handsome pillars and dark, sexy lighting. We enjoyed a well designed tasting menu, including a foie gras preparation that I hadn't had before and really enjoyed. Unfortunately, I didn't write down what it was that made it unique. Another highlight was a black truffle encrusted lamb dish, a lowlight was Somchai's overcooked halibut. (Food-18, Decor-19, Service-18).
