Eating Las Vegas

Ok ok...what is this Fatburger that people rave about so much????  I know it's a west coast thing, if nothing more from an old Beastie Boys song "I buy a Fatburger when I'm way out west."  But I've also been in enough chat websites to hear people rave about them destroying their diets.  I'm thinkin, it's just a hamburger, people!!  C'mon, get ahold of yourselves!

Enter last nite, the need for quick "relaively cheap" food on the strip.  Hmmm, Fatburger?  McDonald's?  Fatburger?  Mc Donald's.  "I'll have one baby fatburger and skinny fries."  (I HATE steak fries.)  Holycannoli! THAT BURGER WAS GOOOOOOOO-oooo-OOOOOOD!  I think I will visit there again before I leave!   Now to find an In-n-Out Burger place, and Chick-fil-a and I will have hit all the fast food joints that I have been deprived of during life, if it's truly possible to be "deprived" of fast food.

Buffets.  The first night here I went to the buffet at MGM Grand.  Other than some a small piece of chicken in mole sauce and one (yes, 1) lobster ravioli, I pretty much stuck to fruits and veggies.  Aren't you proud of me?  Spinach salad with a devine oil/balsamic mix courtesy of ME, creamed spinach, sweet potato salad, sauteed mushrooms, veggie lasagna, more creamed spinach, carrot cake and key lime pie!  See?  Pretty good, eh?  (UGH!  I know!)  Sure do love me some key lime pie.  I never had it until about a year ago and I can't believe what I've been missing my whole life. 

I must sound really pathetic right now. 

Ok...of to work for the conference sessions! Hope you all are well.  I will be running again tomorrow and MAYBE Wednesday, if not then, on Thursday.

Have a great day, friends!

Love the title!

Thanks for the details of your eats!  I love key lime pie, too.  We used to visit my aunt in FL and she would pick the limes off the tree in her back yard and use them in the pie.  True key lime pie is kind of yellowish, not green like you see at some of the fast food places.

Hope you continue to have a wonderful time!  Best regards!

Yummmm!

I've wanted to try Fatburger and also In-Out....

I feel the same way about White Castles.... They don't sell them down south and I grew up on them....The frozen ones don't do it for me!

Sounds like you are having a good time buddy!

I have never heard of Fatburger

It must be a Nevada thing? But that sounds screamin'!

I confused, I know, what's new?

Did you get a fatburger at a McDs? What is so different about them? Do they have a special sauce? Are they made out of a meat other than beef? What is the secret?

You are a traveling fool! When will you be home? How are you getting to Cinci? Are you staying in a hotel or driving home? Oh, if I only had your energy!
