Din Tai Fung
We ate here last time we were here with my parents in January and wanted to come back again, this time with Trisha (Ginny was meeting up with her friends and doesn’t like dim sum anyway). We started with a couple of the salads – Seaweed & Beancurd Salad and the Cucumber Salad. I like

TRÀ Viet Coffee & Tea
Andrea was looking for some coffee and this place looked interesting since it wasn’t the usual chain store coffee. I had a Matcha Latte with oat milk. It’s very nice the way they package it into essentially a clear plastic can with an aluminum top complete with pop top. Andrea had a Viet Hot Coffee

Bazaar Mar by José Andrés
This was our first meal together which I booked early evening the day we all arrived here in Vegas. The restaurant is located in a bougie shopping mall (we did see Lisa Vanderpump and her husband walking their perfectly groomed Pomeranian around the mall) adjacent to the Aria Hotel. We had an early seating right

Morimoto
Our last meal here. I picked Morimoto since it would be different from the two meals of Chinese food we already had at Din Tai Fung and Hakkasan. We had eaten at Morimoto Asia in Napa in October, but found it meh. Many years ago (2012!) we had eaten at Morimoto in Napa and I

Goldilocks
We had a great time here last year, so we had to come back. We were having dinner later so we did try to be judicious in our ordering. We ordered lumpia, kare-kare, sinigang with pork, and pork adobo fried rice. For dessert two options for halo halo, the regular and the golden halo halo

Hakkasan
We last ate at a Hakkasan in San Francisco when my parents were visiting. I remember it being elevated Chinese food and I remember the prime location it had and the interior, but I don’t really remember too much more than that. That location closed, but i did know there were many other Hakkasans still

Sugarcane
Quick lunch in the Ventian. Decided on this place since it had a lot of lighter dishes since we would be eating out at Hakkasan later this evening. We both started with some bloody mary’s. It was a decent bloody mary and came with a whole piece of bacon. I assume that was there to

é by José Andrés
This has to be one of the more difficult reservations to get in Las Vegas given that it only seats 9 (with perhaps only the Omakase seating for Wakuda being more difficult with only 6 seats…challenge accepted!). I hadn’t planned far enough in advance to book a reservation, but asked to be on the wait

Din Tai Fung
We missed eating out here last year, so I was looking forward to finally eating here. It’s all about the dumplings here so we were going to definitely try a lot of those. We had ordered cucumber salad, hot & sour soup, shrimp fried rice, green beans and bunch of dumplings of course! The first

Momofuku – Las Vegas
Last dinner in LV. Didn’t want French again although I was tempted to go to Guy Savoy (next time). Ended up going to Momofuku in the Cosmopolitan. We had eaten at Momofuku Ko the last time we were in NY which is now closed. This is obviously more casual than Ko was and that’s all
