Anyone stayed here?  Check out the room service menu, they have a $200 bento box.

Planning a weekender in Sept with the fam, any suggestions?  Plan to buffet, swim, hold wifeys outlet bags, and more buffet...thinking of Aria because they have that Asian buffet.
 
Wife only wants to stay at Bellagio.

I want to try out that new City Center complex... except I don't feel like driving... want to fly.
 
If you have Amex Platinum, look at Amex's fine hotels and resorts.  You get early check in, late check out, free breakfast for 2, $100 resort credit and upgraded room.  Great program for Vegas.

Goto the mandarin bar if you get a chance at the mandarin oriental since you'll be right next to it. Great views
 
Be careful at Hash House a Go Go if you are not one to "waste" food.  The first time my friends and I went there we ordered four dishes.  We ended up eating three.  The portions are quite large and you wouldn't want to get that full day full feeling when you have other great places to eat. 

I will have to check out Raku and Holsteins.
 
Ps9 - we stayed at Cosmo last year for a bachelor party and ate at Holsteins a couple of times. Excellent burgers, as with all places with good food the wait canbe bad at times.

By far the best meal I had in Vegas....take that Robuchan, Mastro, Mina, Nobu. 
 
I went to Raku last year and had the omokase which was $75/person.  Then I had to go to secret pizza in City center an hour later cause I was still hungry.  The slices at secret pizza which are displayed actually tasted better than their whole pizza.  This is because they re-heat the slices, and the tips become crunchy.  For the whole pizza, the middle is soft which gives no texture.
