Vegas Food Diary December 2023

There's so many good places to eat in Vegas, and it's hard to try new places (for me) because you keep wanting to go back to the places you enjoyed the last time. We did try a couple of new places. Here's what we ate:

Saginaw Deli at Circa


Pork chops. This was delicious. The Brussels spouts were so good as well as the chutney.


The gumbo had a bite to it. It was good.


Shake Shack


Chicken Shack and Smoke Shack

Gordon Ramsey Steak at Paris


You walk through the chunnel, transporting you from Paris into London. Kinda cheesy, but fun concept.




Salmon -- very good, especially the skin.


Eight ounce rib cap.


Caesar salad with quail egg.


Asparagus


I guess this is a chandelier? It was hanging above the main dining room.

Proper Eats Food Hall at Aria


We enjoyed Proper Eats on our last visit and we returned and ate the exact same thing. Chicken sandwich from Seoul Bird.


Smash burger from Lola's Burgers. So good.

Market Street Cafe at the California


Hamburger steak. 


Won ton mein

Pink Box Donuts at the Plaza


On our last trip, they were giving out samples of their iced mocha with oat milk. I was hooked. Good stuff. 


Java Mama and the seasonal Gingy.

Pop-Up Pizza


A quick bite from Pop-Up Pizza. There are very rare "cheap eats" in Vegas now. A slice of pizza can go for $10 on the Strip! Even the prices on Fremont Street are increasing. Pop-Up Pizza was pretty reasonable. I think this one was about $6.

Project BBQ at Circa

Merry Vegas Christmas 2023

Happy Holidays! It really is the best time of the year in Vegas. I enjoy visiting during the holidays because of the weather and all the festive decorations. Temperatures were mostly in the low to mid 50s and I enjoyed every minute of the crisp cool air. In addition, we arrived during the National Rodeo Finals so there where cowboy hats and cowboy boots everywhere. Our Uber driver told us that those attending the events like to stay, drink and hang out in Downtown and he wasn't wrong!

We didn't do too much on this trip -- we ate, we gambled and we did some sightseeing. It was pretty mellow, relaxing trip. Here are some Christmas pics I snapped while there. Be sure to check out my other posts from this trips. Links below!


The tree on Fremont Street is always amazing.


The Nutcracker's mouse king holds court at the Bellagio Conservatory. More pictures here.


Nutcrackers on display at the Bellagio.


The Aria lobby was a candy wonderland.


Tree at Crystals shopping mall.


Not a Christmas picture per se, but it was very pretty. This is located outside the Absinthe circus top at Caesar's Palace.
