    Since taking over the Mirage’s Italian restaurant, Michael LaPlaca has elevated its cuisine to true fine-dining status. That means dishes like agnolotti stuffed with burrata cheese and served with lobster in corn butter; a flat, hand-torn noodle the chef calls ripatelli in a lamb Bolognese with roasted peppers and mint pesto; and what may be the best carbonara in Las Vegas.
