Top 5 places to in Las Vegas on the Go!
My husband and I take an annual trip to Las Vegas each December and we stay for several days. There is one thing that you can count on with Vegas, and that is that there is never enough time to see or do it all!
This time, we decided to spend more time doing activities off of the strip and we always pick a few new restaurants to try. I have shared our photos of the Grand Canyon visit on social media over the past couple of weeks, but not the great food! Las Vegas is a foodie’s dream come true and I have compiled a list of my top 5 places to eat from this trip on the go.
1). The Wicked Spoon… The wicked spoon is not just a buffet in the Cosmopolitan Hotel, but a culinary food hall that serves everything from fried chicken to ox tail pho. I have eaten here three times and can honestly say that it is the best buffet that I have eaten at not only in Las Vegas, but anywhere! The pricing is not bad either. Adults start at $27 and kids start at $16. You can get a meal to go for $20 and bottomless beverage packages for $15.

2). Giada at The Cromwell… In my opinion, Giada’s has the best view of the strip and we had the best seat in the house this visit. All pasta is made fresh in house and the signature lemon pasta is a must have. Save room for the complimentary bread plate and cocktails. Also, make sure that you stop by the photo booth in the lobby before you leave. https://www.caesars.com/cromwell/giada#.WF1YZ2XHWRs
3). Secret Pizza… Secret pizza is very hard to find if you don’t know where to look for it, but it’s in the Cosmopolitan hotel on the third floor. It is cheap and open from 11:00am until 5:00am. Secret Pizza is the perfect late night hang out spot to get food after a show or a night in the casino. They serve NY style slices for $5-$6 and you can’t go wrong with that. https://www.yelp.com/biz/secret-pizza-las-vegas
4). Burger Bar by Hubert Keller… Burger Bar Las Vegas is owned by celebrity chef Hubert Keller, and is located in Mandalay Place, in the mall between Mandalay Bay & Luxor. Burger Bar is very laid back with a pub like atmosphere. They serve organic burgers and boozy shakes. No reservations required. Check them out here: http://www.burger-bar.com/lv_main.php
5). Egg Slut!!! Egg slut went from being the number one food truck in America (based in L.A.) to becoming a restaurant with a few locations. Luckily there is one inside of the Cosmopolitan Hotel. My favorite dish here is the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Sandwich, made with hardwood smoked bacon, an over-medium egg, cheddar cheese and chipotle ketchup, served in a warm brioche bun.

Last week on instagram, I mentioned a company by the name of Jaeci.com that came out and and gave us a personality quiz to help us determine our spirit animal. I am a honey bee and my husband is a Giraffe. We received beautiful necklaces from the company with cards that show the meaning.

We always have a great time in Vegas and never have enough time to see and do it all. I hope that you have a Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah. My daughter turns two on December 29th and I look forward to turning up at home in my pajamas for the new year with the family along with a bottle of Sweet Bitch wine.
I recently launched my very own line of Live. Love. Travel. passport covers and I cannot wait to share them with you.
Happy Holidays!
