Las Vegas Rising Star
Chef Sven Mede has been mentored by Raymond Blanc and Charlie
Trotter. Now, as Executive Chef of Michael Mina's Nob
Hill in Las Vegas, his dishes aptly reflect a deep respect
for products, a commitment to clean flavors, and close attention
to seasonality. Mede has created a Champagne-paired 9-course
tasting menu to bring in the New Year with recipes conveniently
customized to entertain a party of ten. The heavenly progression
of Mede’s delicately-composed dishes keeps you in anticipation
of the next course. The parade of small portions, intensely
flavored with reduced stocks, keeps you from slipping into
the usual holiday food-coma induced by overly rich dishes
and large portions. The Champagnes, like the courses, gradually
crescendo to a finale with refreshing Meyer lemon ice cream
sandwiched between delicate chocolate shortbread. Pick and
choose dishes with their perfectly-suited bubbly to create
your own New Year's menu, or go all out with a decadent 9-course
tasting menu!
