PP,

Thanks for this...I was maybe getting a little to hyped on the restos at the Cosmo. Nice fair reviews.
I head out tomorrow for and am excited about Sage and Charlie Palmers, and Tacos El Gordo.

Operation Gastro-Vegas is ready to launch.

Chiao

DF,

We are staying downtown our first two nights, I'm hoping the DT location is good.

Loving the adobada...bring on the reds and greens!

Chiao!

Roger that BC.

Bags are packed, nails are painted, just waiting out the time till take off.

Operation Gastro-Vegas is almost under way!

Chiao!

Lotus of Siam is on the list!

Thank-you for the nice post.

Thanks...looks like a couple nights here might be the ticket.

Eat, gamble, drink...then move to a new hotel!

The Nomad Guide to Vegas !

L.

thank-you. As I said above, this is a trip for my younger..(single) brother. Would love to come off as not a futzy ole lady!

L.

Thank-you for that considered answer.

As my brother works in the Arctic and rarely leaves this time of year, and has never been to Vegas, I want this to be spectacular. I would love to be somewhere IT, and tapped in to the zeitgeist, and since I'm not...well this answer helps tremendously.

We both love food and would like to have to travel for every meal.
L.

This place is on my lunch list! Yummy!

Thanks You Phil...The PDF did open, and the menu looks, good I could eat my way thru the appy menu.
FYI, I found a link to the hotel that they are housed, and when I try to get to the resto, BLANKY page. I think they have a reservation cookie by browser kicks out.

But the food looks great, the atomosphere and ambience looks like I could enjoy, so the Barrymore is on the list! YEA!

I want to know when I'll be old enough to use that super power! Then I can re-write it myself and only ever have eat KD and Wagon Wheels and Pop Tart!

Perhaps like Tom and I, you and your brother share a mutant brain link so that all food you eat becomes his memory too...and visey-versey!

Funny...I remember not liking coleslaw...but slaw happens almost every night here in some form or another.

MYY,

would that be white beans and pasta in the same dish? I

Fat make the world go round. Pun intended!

LOL...My mom and brother were here for Christmas and I mentioned the "Spam" wars'

Holy Moly...my mother can make like denial an art form...." I never ever made you kids eat anything you didn't want"...then my brother fake a vomit attack to re-enact the scene...

HILarious!

I love this1

LOL...I did search their website...and funny...they have no mention of "secret pizza".
But I did check out the other dining. They seem to hold an inordinate amout of resto's being touted here a very good or great.

Might be the place to spend the day eating and gaming.

Thanks for your input.

L.

I agree that google is a wonderful thing. When it works. As I have mentioned in three posts now...google re-directs me to a blank page.

Yes...that very link that you have so nicely provided for me. Perhaps there is a problem with my browers security being set to high. But that alone would give me pause for concern since I have had no problem opening many Las Vegas food re-lated links today.

Perhaps I will phone them and get the poor girl at the hostess table to recant to all of their spendid offerings. Oh..and the address, open hours and dress code and the cost of course.

L.

FYI...I do know that.

That's why I enquired about the legitimacy of the plethora of positive food reviews.

Also there is a non-food related thread that perhaps in retrospect I could have posted this on considering the ill fated last inquiry.

So I take it that you haven't eaten at any of the Cosmo's restos?

L

again...I go to the website and it redirects me to a blank page...too bad.

food talk here makes it sound interesting.

Sorry that their site is down.

L.

Is it just some good marketing or are the resto's really that good?

Should it be considered a good place to stay as well?

L.

E,

Going to Vegas this week with my brother. We love food high and low, and knowing us will be eating our faces off! I would be glad to give a run down on what we do.

Right now I'm looking at

Sage vs Charlie Plamers

Tacos el gordos VS four kegs

Raku VS Lotus of Siam

and the buffet at the Cosmo sounds like the one to beat.

Let you know how it all went down.

L

Hi,

I have tried to find an active link to this place and have struck out. Is it still open?

L

Wow...thanks for this post. These were really nice descriptions of all four of the places that interested me.

I will be in Vegas for 4 night this week, and as always greatful to CH's for all the fantastic information.

L

Thank-you so much for this great thread. I'm going to Vegas on Tuesday and this is saving me a great deal of time and money.

Wonderful information and nice posters.

Will let you know where I ate.

Not really, the small savoury ones are OK for party snacks, but Ryevita Sesame is my go to cracker.

Ahhh...My love for Campbell's tomato soup "cooled down' with a splash of cream and pepper knows no bounds.

OMG-the Spam wars at our were terrible. At one dark point in the '70s Spam was the "go to" chic item for suburbans housewives. It showed up everywhere! My brother and I hated it. We would just sit and cry...it was so bad to us. And we weren't fussy kids...But spam did me in.

I still might cry just thinking of it

Now i'm craving that flatbread! Our little store has been out of kimchi for two weeks...I'm drooling. Now shrimp and kimchi are on my "next week" menu! But maybe with homemade noodle...

Errrg...those are times when I wish I could be more pro-active. My close core of freinds and I always ALWAYS spill the deets on what we can or can't afford that week. But when you are seeing ppl that you don't have that kind of relationship with it's hard.
