Eating Las Vegas

 We are in Las Vegas for a buddy’s “Wedding Celebration Weekend, and I am extremely excited to experience Las Vegas, and all the incredible restaurants.  Lately I have been wishing that I could be a professional eater.  Not like a competition eater, but someone who gets paid to eat at restaurants.  After doing my web research and building a list of possible eateries for the weekend, im finding it hard to narrow it down to the number of actual meals we can physically handle.  

Get off the plane, eat Double Double

Hash House A Gogo 

we went to the Imperial Palace location and although we were told it would be an hour wait, we were sat in about 20 minutes.  On our way to our table, we pass people eating pancakes that are seriously 18-24 inches in diameter. I start my breakfast with a BLT Bloody Mary  French Toast dipped in Banana Cinnamon Cream  The HH Original Benedict with Smoked Bacon  I had to get the Fried Chicken Benedict fried chicken w/ spinach, smoked bacon, tomato, griddled mozzarella, chipotle cream and scrambled eggs  Holy crap…. Me full… need to walk. And on that walk… I stumble upon a Pina Colada the size of the Eiffel Tower  I walk the streets of Paris and consume my tower.

After watching Holly Madison’s Boobshow… I mean “PeepShow” 

Michael Mina’s Nobhill Tavern is the dinner spot 

The Lobster Pot Pie, served tableside!

Chicken Tetrazzini!

Grilled Beef Shortrib

It was a great dining experience, with great company!

I had to walk by L'atelier de Joel Robuchon on the way out.  i need to eat there...

EXTREME HANGOVER, NEED FOOD.

My amazing lady takes me to brunch at Thomas Keller’s Bouchon.   I am giggly with excitement to finally eat at this French bistro.  Minus the hangover (mimosas did begin the healing process), this was THE PERFECT SUNDAY BRUNCH.  The served placed some jelly on the table for our bread, cherry jam with vanilla beans floating around in it.  This jelly is so incredible we went down to Bouchon Bakery  after breakfast, bought a jar, and paid 35 dollars to check the suitcase to take some home.  I wanted to order two breakfasts because I was torn between the Croque Madame, or the Roasted Chicken and Waffles.  Chicky Waffles will be eaten another day.  Croque Madame, with Frites Topped with The Most Perfectly Cooked Sunnyside-up egg

French Toast, Layered with Caramelized Apples

After going to see Circue Du Soleil BoobManity… I mean Zumanity 

we end up at Julian Serrano’s Tapas  

He is making tapas with some modern and fun components, mixed with the traditional.  We had  Lobster Skewers with Pineapple substance, Beet Salad with foamy substance, Griddled Tenderloin with cheese, toast, honey, pecans, and sauce chausser (this dish is freaking out of hand.  I would like to eat another right now.)

We will take a pot of mussels and some chicken and mornay filled croquettes!

There it is folks… my eating adventure in Vegas!  I will be back... i must have those chicken and waffles from Keller and i must eat at L'atelier de Joel Robuchon.  I must.
