Vegas: What To Eat

One word: Smorgasbord.

Yes, I know, it conjures up images of heavyset people in cowboy hats carrying a mountain of food back to their tables, but smorgasbords are the way to go when you’re in Vegas (after all, when in Rome…). Every hotel on the strip offers a smorgasbord, and they’re generally quite well priced and reasonably high-quality. This is especially useful if you have children. You’ve all heard the arguing about what to eat and where – well, when you have an assortment of food ranging from chicken chow mein to apple pie, it tends to put an end to the fighting.

Of course, if you’re looking for a finer dining experience, Vegas is eager to accommodate you, too. The city is crammed with cafés, restaurants, and bistros. Many of the strip hotels contain nicer restaurants as well. The Aladdin, in particular, is known for a very costly but thoroughly enjoyable dining experience. You might also consider eating atop the Stratosphere, with Vegas spread out hundreds of feet below.

As always, the key to Vegas is variety. Whether you’re looking for pizza, lobster, or the most delicious piece of cheesecake you’ve ever tasted (don’t forget to checkout the Cheesecake Factory!), you’re sure to find something to satisfy your cravings.
