Guests in the bar and lounge are invited to choose a dish, such as Poke Stack, Chorizo Shrimp & Sweet Corn Dip, fried herb goat cheese with tomato coulis or steak frites, and pair it with a mango mojito, bottle of Stella Artois or glass of Trapiche Oak Cask Chardonnay or Red Diamond Cabernet Sauvignon for $10.

Picnic baskets

Soleil Pool at Paris Las Vegas now offers poolside picnic baskets. The packages, which range from $45 to $300, each include a cheese-and-cracker board and a cocktail option. They’re available from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily at the bar or through a cocktail server.
