    My Trip Report

    Leaving tomorrow for a Sun-Fri stay at Aria so will be MIA on here all week starting tomorrow - I completely unplug when I'm in Vegas, don't even bring my cellphone - but will hopefully have an interesting trip report coming the next week after I get back. I bumped my LOC at Aria up by about 1/3 and also opened a second LOC at Palazzo for this trip, so should be plenty of good gambling action to report upon my return - I didn't make any trips to AC [or any other casinos] since my last Vegas trip, so I've got a lot of pent-up gambling to get out of my system!

    For the culinarily minded, the dining line-up for the week will include second visits to American Fish and Sage at Aria - will they be just as good the second time around? - a return visit to personal favorite Carnevino - will it hold up to all the praise I've lavished on it on here? - as well as some old-school French at Andre's at the Monte Carlo [we used to always try to stop at his downtown location that's now sadly closed, will the newer outpost at MC be as good as the original always was?] - and some Chinese at Jasmine at Bellagio. Should also be plenty of breakfast & lunch stops as well - so there'll be a bunch of restaurant reviews to post upon my return as well.

    Stay tuned for trip report postings starting sometime on the 18th or shortly thereafter :wave:

    Got back yesterday - 2,279 new posts since my last log-in :confused2:

    Anyway - I jotted down all the pertinent trip details on the flight home while they were still fresh in my mind - hopefully I should have the first TR installment & restaurant review(s) written up & posted by tonight or tomorrow night at the latest [look for new threads here & in the restaurants section] :popcorn
