Eating goooood food
We love our chef shows, and a lot of the chefs have restaurants in Vegas. We had a list, it was long, and we realized that there was not enough meals in the number of days we were there to do all of them so we had to select which ones we didn’t want to miss.
In no particular order, let’s start with the best steak we’ve ever had.
Craft steak
We are huge Top Chef fans, and visiting head judge Tom Colicchio’s steakhouse was at the top of our list. Alex had been before in NYC, but never in Vegas; this was Tess’ first time. So after losing a quick $100 at the roulette tables at MGM Grand, we headed over to CraftSteak.
The concept and feeling in the dining room was very nice. Cool, polite and helpful waiters. Even the guys filling our waters was great. We got recommended a Napa Valley Cabernet from Duckhorn, a vineyard that Alex had bought wines from before, and it ended up being the best wine we’ve ever had. We knew that we wanted to try the beef short ribs since we had made Tom Collichio’s short rib dish before, but we asked the waiter whether we should try the NY Strip or the Ribeye — he recommended the ribeye which turned out delicious. For sides we had Maui onions and roasted potatoes and for desert we had some sticky toffee pudding which was amazing.
