Caesar's buffet. Cosmopolitan's is good too but it's been years since I've been there.
Hash House a Go Go is great too, and Momofuku Milk Bar is always good. Love their soft serve ice cream.

I don't particularly like the casino, but Cosmopolitan has one of my favorite breakfast places in Vegas...Eggslut! I was just in Vegas last month for 4 days and I went there 3 times for the slut lol. And mmm that biscuit too.

Are there any other good buffets besides the one at Caesar's? Don't want to spend $100+ on a buffet.

The Wynn buffet is also great.

Supposedly there is an F Zero AX Machine in Circus Circus, if you got a chance try it.

Go to Lotus of Siam for sure (make reservations). The restaurants in the Cosmo are very good. I've always been a fan of the breakfast buffet at Paris. If you get sick of the strip hit up Hoover dam. It is pretty cool.

Just had lunch at Mon Ami Gabi, pretty decent

Best buffet is the Sterling Brunch at Bally's on Sunday mornings. $100 for all you can eat lobster tails, king crab legs, prime rib, lamb, fresh oysters, filet mignon, caviar, unlimited champagne pours, bloody mary bar, and all sorts of other goodness. You won't get a table this Sunday though. Or any Sunday this summer. They're booked until September. The bar is open seating but there's only about 25 spots and they're taken right at 9am.

So when you made this recommendation, it sounded awesome, so I checked, and indeed, the whole summer was booked. Tonight, the wife randomly checked again, and apparently someone just cancelled, and we got a table for next Sunday. So excited! Thanks for the recommendation!

Enjoy! Make sure to ask your waiter what they make fresh back in the kitchen that's included upon request. I know that they'll bring out some great popovers. They'll also make a made to order eggs benedict with either filet, prosciutto, or lobster.

Now I just need to remember to book soon for next May when I'm there to see Gaga.

You're in the middle of a desert, what did you expect temperature-wise?

 

[Z-Beat]

It's a global warming-addled desert in July


...

• Blue Man Group if they're still there
• Hit up one of those rooftop pool clubs
• Take a walk down The Strip at night (don't go down any alleys)
• Go to downtown Vegas at night and see the rooftop show
• High Roller ferris wheel
• M&M World and Hersheys World for some random-ass candy, I guess
• The New York New York rollercoaster and Stratosphere rides
• Don't even glance and Circus Circus. It's awful
• Go see a Cirque de Soleil show
• Go shopping through Caesar's Palace. It's massive and there's plenty of cool shit to see
• Go check out the animals at The Mirage or the sea life in Mandalay Bay
• Cosmopolitan has some good restaurants. iirc Excalibur does as well but I could be misremembering

That's everything I can list that doesn't involve blackjack, or hookers. In fact, forget the list!

Just got back from Vegas for a bachelor party
- Eat at Bacchanal in Caesars
-Wicked Spoon isn't that great
-If you like sweets, go to Milk in Cosmopolitan
-If you want a pool/day club go to Encore
- For a night club go to XS or the new club at the Palms or look up which club a popular dj is playing at
- Bring chapstick and lotion, it's summer in a desert so it's incredibly dry

Okay that was delicious. The popovers were incredible. Everything was good, but I think my favorite was the slab cut bacon - I've never had bacon like that before, and now I don't want to have bacon any other way!

And now, nice and drunk on champagne, time to stagger to Evo finals!
