While researching info for my post about Domenico’s 60th anniversary, I wanted to confirm that the restaurant was the oldest in Long Beach. It is, but when Fish Tale came up in the search as the oldest seafood restaurant, I noticed an interesting headline. Apparently, the oldest seafood in Long Beach will change hands in a couple […]
El Pollo Loco (U.S. & Mexico)
Since I shared our roadside eats at Fatburger on the way to Vegas, I thought I would do the same on the way back. We stopped at El Pollo Loco, a chain of restaurants that started in Mexico and are now found all over the western U.S. I know most of you are thinking, “Really? […]
The Rockhouse (Las Vegas, NV)
Our last day in Vegas, we wanted to watch the World Cup final, and we checked out The Rockhouse! They bill it as the original and only Las Vegas Ultra-Dive bar with drinking game nights and a mechanical bull… but during the day there were kids watching the soccer match. Yep, they had just as […]
Espressamente illy (Las Vegas, NV)
After dinner at Zeffirino, the dinner party decided to skip dessert. However, my ever-present dessert stomach and sweet-tooth combination PLUS the fact that I ordered only a salad and an appetizer, caused me to eye the Espressamente illy gelato display. The same real-estate adage applies to this place: location, location, location. Yes, it’s impossible to […]
Zeffirino (Las Vegas, NV)
For our second dinner in Las Vegas, we decided to go to Zeffirino in the Venetian because one person in our dinner party had not eaten there before. Not only is it the longest running restaurant in the hotel, it is the second location of a restaurant that has been open in Genoa, Italy since 1939. […]
I ♥ Burgers (Las Vegas, NV)
It was time to watch the 3rd place game for the World Cup, and we scouted a few locations to have our lunch and see the game. It turned out that I ♥ Burgers was the perfect place for some great burgers and more while we watched amongst tons of soccer fans. I already visited here […]
Bouchon Bistro (Las Vegas, NV)
After going over my A to Z archives recently, I found out that Bouchon Bistro is my most visited restaurant. It was fitting that when we headed to Vegas, we went to our favorite stop yet again! To see my past posts, including one of my favorite chicken & waffles dishes, see here: #1, #2, #3, […]
Fatburger (worldwide)
I don’t typically cover chain restaurants, but when you’re on the road to Vegas, you’re limited to roadside eats. After a long time in traffic, we were ready to fuel up, and Fatburger was our meal of choice! The Fatburger comes in three different sizes, with a multitude of condiments. Besides “The Works,” you can […]
