He's gonna tell you to go to Jerry's Golden Nugget for the Prime Rib, or to show up at Bellagio about 3ish-
You get the lunchtime price then it switches to dinner

Randy, Sounds good.
I am going with 6 other guys and staying at Caesars Palace. The weather will be a tad on the cool side. I am not much of a gambler at all. Any stuff in Vegas that is an absolute must see?

We get into Henderson about 10-11:00 on Wednesday but should have wheels.
Heading out at 18:00 so no big rush on our end. Any good suggestions Jordi? Tabs knows of a good Thai place...

YEP standard advice...there are some other decent Buffets but the Bellagio has the best overall quality..from soup to nuts.. Imperial Palace CAR COLLECTION...get free tickets in front of the Imperial Palace.. The LV Strip is for suckas ahhhh I mean TOURISTS..everything is overblown and OVER PRICED with geegaws, bells and whistles all designed to part you from your money. If you dig especially on the food side of the equation there are a lot of good places to eat at in LV. These locals only kind of places are an offshoot of the talent that works in the major venues in LV. Yunan Garden that Ricky Lee showed us in China Town is an example. The Lotus Garden on E Sahara is good for Thai...rated as one of the 100 Best in the US Orchid Garden on W Sahara..for Dim Sum.. A friend of mine was up here from LA for the SCI (Safari Club Int) convention at the Mandalay in January...6 people for dinner with wine at one of the hotel restrauants....$1400.00.... I don't care how good the food or wine you ain't gettin $233.00 out of me for dinner...especially when you can get the SAME or BETTER QUALITY FOOD for $22.00 at the Belagio Buffet. OHH one of the favorites for some friends here in LV..Is JOES STONE CRAB restrauant in the Caesars Forum, for Itie food there is BERTOLINI's In the Forum as well. I have been to the off strip one that is on W Sahara and it is pretty good.

Free wifi at the airport. That was an unexpected perk.
I am not going to lose all my money here am I?
