was in vegas this past weekend, and it was the first time i actually was sad to leave. like any other place, vegas can be raw debauchery. but it can also be a place to have good clean fun and enjoy the finer things in lfe. a recap of the weekend:
friday
* arrive vegas early morning
* check into the palazzo. the suites are quite nice, to say the least.
* eat at zine in the hotel. its a chinese restaurant, right next to the pai gow tables. very expensive, but great service and extremely fresh ingredients
* drinks at dos caminos. really hot crab stuffed jalapenos. really hot waitresses.
* dinner at daniel boulud. really good bottles of wine. great food. service a little spotty. people smoking sucked. freaky water show every 15 minutes.
* craps, lavo, and more craps, until 6am. i didn't gamble, just hung out with people who did.
* chicken tenders and eggs over easy at the gran lux cafe. the waitress was too cheery for 6am.
saturday
* brunch at the wynn buffet.
* nap, then got some work done
* dinner at another chinese place. this time a cantonese noodle house. it's amazing that vegas has better chinese than west la, albeit at really high prices
* ka at the mgm grand. an amazing performance.
* sushi samba back at the palazzo. 3 bottles of very good sake, and all the best nigiri sushi-- ama ebi, uni, toro, kanpachi
* craps table. my brother was on a streak, and up a few hundred dollars (he started with $100). left around 3am because i'm old.
sunday
* brunch at bouchon
* worked the rest of the day
* caught the last flight out of vegas
