We did some good eating in Vegas. First, hats off to Southwest Airlines who provides little snackboxes (not like THE Snack Box in Galway but rather a box of snacks) for its longer flights, featuring Wheat Thins, cheese and crackers (a lovely gouda spread), Walker's shortbread, and a Fig Newton bar. All this served with a refreshing beverage of your choice, or if you are the elderly foreign woman on our return flight, 6 glasses of wine on a 3 hour flight. I also spilled my refreshing beverage, and got to use the flight attendant call button with authority.
Once in Vegas, we hit up one of the legendary buffets, the Pharoah's Pheast (we stayed at the Luxor).
After R won some $$$, we had a delightful (despite desperate fatigue) dinner at Trattoria del Lupo, a Wolfgang Puck restaurant. That little dude knows his food. We shared a delightful heirloom tomato salad. Then I had a pizza with braised pancetta, parmesan cheese, and homemade sausage while R had homemade Italian sausage patties with a white polenta and pepper ragout. It was delish.
For lunch on our last full day, we hit Nine Fine Irishmen hard. We loves us some mini-steak and Guinness pies. Mmm. I also enjoyed a corned beef sandwich, while Randy enjoyed a sampler of 3 mini sandwiches - BBQ pork, cheeseburger, and spiced chicken.
And finally, our last Vegas dinner following Blue Man Group was at the lovely Grand Lux Cafe, at the Venetian. I heart the Venetian first of all. I also heart the lovely "Sunday Night Pasta" while Randy hearts the stacked quesadilla. Mmm.
I'll return to cooking info tomorrow, I promise. :)
