We'll Always Have Paris

Has it really been fifteen years? Paris Las Vegas is celebrating its anniversary on the Strip with an array of birthday specials, and they've really gone Number 15 crazy: Casino bars are offering special anniversary cocktails, the Eiffel Tower Restaurant's signature drink "Eiffel Affair" is $15, St. Louis Cafe has a $15 three-course lunch, Cafe Belle Madeleine has a special anniversary pastry, Le Village Buffet offers weekday lunches for $19.99, and, finally, the Wedding Chapel has a special wedding package for $1500. Enjoy these specials while you can; September only lasts 30 days, after all.
