Dining Solo at Treasure Island
Treasure Island has fast become one of my favorite hotels on the Las Vegas Strip. The quality for price ratio is pretty high, in my opinion. The rooms are very nice, the casino has pretty much everything you’d want a casino to have including more than one video poker bar, the location is outstanding, and [...]
Restaurant Review: BLT Burger at The Mirage
BLT Burger at the Mirage isn’t your typical burger joint. First, it’s owned by Chef Laurent Tourondel, one of those celebrity chefs Las Vegas is so famous for. He owns a series of New York City restaurants under the BLT moniker (BLT Steak, BLT Fish, and BLT Prime) in addition to the BLT Burger restaurants. [...]

Solo Dining Review: Ra Sushi, Las Vegas
I’m always looking for new, solo-friendly places to eat when I go to Las Vegas. Because my last trip was longer than usual for me, I needed to stretch my budget with some low-priced meals. During my research, I read that Ra Sushi at the Fashion Show Mall had great prices and decent food. Ra [...]
Solo Dining Review: Tinoco’s Kitchen
I didn’t intend to eat at Tinoco’s Kitchen. I only had one evening to spend Downtown (on Fremont Street) during my recent solo travel to Las Vegas. Since I was trying to stretch my food budget, I had decided I would try the prime rib special at the Market Street Cafe at the California, which [...]
