MGM Grand Hotel @ Las Vegas
Finechinaguy and I visited Las Vegas in November of 2007. After nearly two years of hiatus, I finally can write about this post! Of course there are just so many more posts to cover, but I will cover what time will allow! So please be patience and stay tune for more posts, and many of them are from Vegas!
Craftsteak Restaurant
When you come to Las Vegas, you have to at least try one of the “brand name” restaurants! Sure there are lots of affordable buffets, but let your tastebuds indulge in deliciously crafted gourmet food! Yes it can be expensive, but you pay for what you get.
MGM Grand was the hotel that we stayed at and fortunately for us Craftsteak was conveninetly located here! The only reason I know about Craftsteak is because of Top Chef. Tom Colicchio, who is a familiar face on that show, is the owner of this restaurant. After watching many episodes of Top Chef and having great respect for Chef Colicchio, I knew I had to try this restaurant. It’s funny how this restaurant is also located in New York City, but I never really bother to go because of time or because I never think it’s in my budget. But since I’m on vacation, I might as well splurge a little!

Peter Luger Steakhouse (Williamsburg, Brooklyn)
Now this is a post that I’ve been dying to write about. I have passed by this for years everytime I cross over the Williamsburg Bridge and the area in general. My parents worked right down the street and I would pass by that constantly. I always wanted to go there since I was young but it always seemed out of reach. Well, Finechinagirl took me there for a birthday and made my wish come true!
More after the jump!

What you really want to see is where we ate.
Enoteca San Marco
Mario Batali and his partner, winemaker Joseph Bastianich’s restaurant. Sitting right in the middle of the Venetian Grand Canal and Shops, it has a great view. The restaurant features homely Italian, great varieties of Cheese and Wine.

Smokin It Up @ Blue Smoke BBQ Restaurant
It feels a little strange moving onto WordPress since I’ve been housed at Xanga for more than (5) years. Can you believe it? I wasn’t really much of a blogger because I no longer felt the need to post anything about my life because people just do not care. It’s true, period. I had my ups and downs on xanga, like meeting new people and dating them, but that time is over. Crazzyy. Anyways, I’m trying to start a fresh new life here and will primarily focus on the topic of food. Let me tell you, food heals all wounds despite all the bs that you’ve been hearing time and time again. See it’s the excessiveness that will kill you, but not moderation. This is what fine dining is all about. I’d like you to welcome me into this neighborhood and I hope you’ll be good to me.
Ha, maybe not.
To start off, if you think Dallas BBQ on 42nd St and around the city is good, better think again.
