    Tower Suites restroom area to the left of the RFB lounge. Yeah, scary I know. LOL. The women's restroom is designed similarly. That and the restroom outside Sinatra (love the green) are my favorites. :) Ohhh, and the orange one in Lakeside . . . I digress.

    Carry on! Following right along. Love those cheese things.

    Dinner at Forte Bar and Tapas on Rainbow Blvd, I mentioned in @eliza trip report that I would have some vareniki.

    Grabbed an outside table, server asked if I was Russian, my lineage is basically pure Polish, so I definitely could pull off Russian!

    Borscht--- Warm beet soup with onions and dill (dill is in everything russian)
    This was pretty good (3.75 sbasibos)
    IMG_20210223_170118072.jpg

    Fries with feta and garlic----lots of raw fresh garlic, and of course....dill. I loved these and ate the shit out of them (4 spasibos)

    IMG_20210223_165758918.jpg


    Vareniki--- These are the Russian/Ukrainian version of pierogi. They were boiled and served with a metric shit-ton of onions (as they should) and some sour cream. They were clearly homemade, and quite good. A perfect example of simple old country food, and comfort food for me. I do make my own pierogi, so I appreciate these probably a bit more.
    (4 spasibos/Dziękujęs)

    Really enjoying your TR. I miss smoking stogies in the casino. NJ won’t allow it for now. How are the reactions from other players?

    I generally ask before lighting up... And you can't at tables.

    Please write up your Biloxi trip. I am going in a little over 3 weeks. Been about 20 ears since I have been. Interested in table minimums on pai gow and blackjack. Would love to see food pictures and your take on the restaurants you go to. Good luck

    Like a royal flush, or a hooker with a striking resemblance to Kate Middleton? :)

    Cigar for golf, Oliva series v torpedo... One of my favorites (4.25 puffs)

    Golf is at canyon gate country club...I'm hitting my driver great on the range, therefore I am doomed. It's a nice course and I'm always treated like a member. (Here on a reciprocal)
