I stayed at Bellagio and grabed a few goodies from Jean Phillipe during my stay. In terms of taste and value, they were all over the map. First of all, the shop is really cute. It has a chocolate fountain and a crepe station and all around fun atmosphere. I had crab salad one day ($9) and it was big and delicious, one of the best salads I've ever had. One day I had the caramel brioche ($5) and it was a lot of brioche and not a lot of carmel. One day I had a milk chocolate candy bar with hazelnuts. Now these type bars are usually $4 by Lindt or another company, but this one was $10 (that is not a typo). The chocolate bar itself was very thin, half the size of a traditional candy bar, and not nearly as tasty as some other chocolate makers. The hazelnuts sat on top (not mixed in) which looked cool but made it incredibly difficult to eat. One bite and hazlenuts flew everywhere. I had to pick them off and eat the chocolate, chase it with some nuts--not ideal. After the candy bar experience I stopped going to Jean Phillipe and made a few side trips to Chocolate Swan at Mandalay Place.
Pros: Tasty crab salad, fun atmosphere
Cons: $10 candy bars that aren't that delicious
