This will be my last post on Vegas for some time. This trip was meant to be to celebrate my Grandmothers 90th birthday (she lived in Vegas) but unfortunately she passed away at the beginning of the year.
We've never actually stayed on the strip and you can read about my other trips here.
I also spent a lot of time reviewing this blog - http://www.weezermonkey.com/ and got a lot of good ideas on places to eat and stay.
Stay
One night at the Cosmopolitan on the strip - it was stunning
Suncoast out near Summerlin
Eat
Roys, Summerlin
Lawry's Prime Rib
Serendipity 3, Caesars Palace
Mon Ami Gabi, Paris
Lindo Michoacan - great Mexican
The Cheesecake Factory - yes seriously, and no Penny didn't serve us
The Olive Garden
Cinnabon - you can't beat them when they're warm
Do
Shop - North and South Outlets, Fashion Show Mall across from Wynns, The Forum Shops Caesars Palace and Meadows Mall to name a few
Walk up and down the strip
I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother's passing.
ReplyDeleteI've never been to Vegas (social drinker at best and definitely not a gambler) but glad to hear that there's tons to see & do even if you don't fit the typical Vegas demographic. I have heard that it has some of the best restaurants in the country. I'd love to see some of the national parks that are in the area too.
Thanks - yes Red Rock Canyon, Valley of Fires are all well worth seeing, as is the Grand Canyon and Death Valley if your willing to drive that bit further
