ELV note: Rather than provide the extended, extracted, exhaustive, incisive and illuminative pictorial commentary for which he is known, the folks around the ELV offices thought you’d prefer to take a quick gander at the faces, the food, the fun and the back of Al Mancini’s head that were all on display a few nights ago at our book launch party.

Merci beaucoup to Joel Robuchon, his staff, L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon,  Robin Leach, and the good folks at the MGM Grand for making the party and the launch such an incredible success!
