 Tokyo's Best Restaurants
However, the new Joel Robuchon has done away with the ornate Louis XVI furniture and opened with a fresher and more contemporary style that blends better with the hustle and bustle of Tokyo.
Joel Robuchon oversees almost every aspect of the menus at this new restaurant (he was in Tokyo during the week we visited, and reportedly in his kitchen early every morning), and Alain Verzeroli, who worked for him at the Paris Taillevent before heading to Asia, is a talented and faithful follower of his culinary philosophy.
We particularly enjoyed the bean soup flavored with truffles, onions and chunks of bacon; the perfectly cooked beef brushed lightly with wasabi, and the langoustine breaded with sesame seeds and served with a mint-flavored couscous.

In 1984, Robuchon, then 38, was awarded a third Michelin star at Jamin in Paris for his startlingly modern food with its pure flavors (no more than three to a dish) and geometric garnishes (tiny balls and cubes of zucchini and carrot, and miniscule dots of vegetable puree).
Robuchon has brought rarefied cuisine to the Nevada desert, an extraordinary feat, and his food there is just as spectacular as his cuisine at Jamin in the '80s.
Robuchon was wearing the fl chef's coat that all his cooks wear at L'Atelier, not the white jacket with the blue, white and red collar of a Meilleur Ouvrier de France, a winner of one the world's fiercest cooking competitions.

 Salon: Joel Robuchon
The 51-year-old Robuchon, whose elite Paris restaurant bears his name, has passed the toque to another Michelin three-star chef, Alain Ducasse, the chef of Le Louis XV in Monte Carlo.
Out of respect for Robuchon's culinary legacy, and for those who have never had the opportunity to taste his magic, Ducasse plans to keep several of Robuchon's trademark dishes on the menu, including his sublime fl truffle tart and his luxurious layered gelée of caviar with cauliflower cream.
Robuchon may have moved out of the kitchen, but he has plenty of projects on his plate as he assumes his new role of gastronomic ambassador.

 Joël Robuchon at the Mansion
Robuchon's here - about eight weeks a year, anyway - because in 2006, Las Vegas is to chefs what Broadway is to theater people: the center of the universe.
Robuchon lingers over the details: the red pepper in the tuna tartare, the chestnuts alongside the turbot, the mashed potatoes with the duck confit.

Chef Robuchon is always in the middle of it, orchestrating his chefs like a player-coach of a world-class football team.
Robuchon asked his friend Alain Weill, a noted expert on the period as well as cigars and turn-of-the-century posters, to oversee the project and make sure everything was done to specification.
The one problem with Joël Robuchon is that the restaurant seats only 57 people; so it doesn't leave much room if you plan a visit before the master himself retires from the kitchen.
