Pamplemousse 35 th Birthday
Pamplemousse le restaurant, just off the Strip on East Sahara and Paradise, celebrates its 35th birthday this year and some exciting changes are afoot.
Founder George LaForge hand picked Jean-David Daudet and his wife Lee Ann to join him in the operation and ownership of the 85 seat restaurant.
Daudet hails from the Burgundy region of France, where he owned and operated his own acclaimed restaurant, Le Trou Poinchy, for twelve years before moving to Las Vegas as the Executive Chef for Drais at the Barbary Coast. Daudet began his career training under Marc Meneau of L'Esperance " long known as one of Frances culinary institutions. He spent four years with Meneau as his 2nd in command, and another five years combined as chef at the Michelin starred restaurants La Bergerie and La Gaichel in Luxembourg.
Daudet's wife Lee Ann is an American who is fluent in French after time spent in Europe as a film producer and casting director. She also works as the Director of External Affairs for Blue Man Group.
What Georges LaForge created in Pamplemousse is a very special place where friends gather and enjoy great food. My goal is to keep all that is wonderful about the restaurant " the charming candlelit rooms, the waiters reciting the menu, the classic dishes like Duck, the Lamb, and the Veal, the crudités basket, olives and French bread that we deliver to each table.
Daudet has added a few of his own specialties including a Chilean Sea Bass cooked with soy and ginger, Salmon with Spinach in a Puff Pastry, a Tomato and Goat Cheese Tarte and some new deserts including a Chocolate Volcano Fondant and a Grand Marnier Soufflé. Were using a greater amount of organic ingredients, and have expanded the wine list “particularly the wines from France and California.
The restaurant is now open for lunch Monday through Friday with a special bistro menu that includes classics like the Croque Monsieur, Moules Frites and Coq au Vin, as well as a variety of salads and soups.From Yahoo/ City Search

WHY "PAMPLEMOUSSE" ? (French for “ grapefruit),”
The name Pamplemousse was the idea of longtime Georges La Forge's acquaintance and intended partner Bobby Darin.
Bobby wanted to open a Restaurant in partnership with Georges but with 2 conditions:
To be built in Beverly Hills and to be named Pamplemousse.Bobby thought Pamplemousse was the most beautiful word in the French language (it reminded him of chocolate mousse and Champagne). Though Darin's untimely death in 1973 precluded the partnership, Georges kept the name in tribute and memory of his friend. Standing before the modest little tract home that was to be the site of a "dream come true” Georges' visionary creativity began to swirl. From beneath his talented hands and natural flair for design, like a phoenix rising from the ash, emerged the intimate rendez-vous spot for friends, and lovers alike. "
