If the pool is a priority for your trip to Vegas, stay at MGM Grand. The pool complex is my absolute fave in Las Vegas. The Grand pool complex includes 6.5 acres of pools and rivers for every mood and personality--and their pool parties are top notch...

This was originally a partnership with Spiegelword, and their show at the Cosmopolitan was literally on the other side of the wall. The performers would come offstage into the restaurant and rove, performing and interacting with the room throughout s...

If you've never been to a Meow Wolf, it is a wild experience full of exploration, sensory immersion, and delight. This location thematically examines our relationship with commerce, marketing, and consumerism in clever, creative, and irreverent ways....

This isn't just one of my faves in Vegas, this is one of my favorite restaurants on earth. I cannot begin to tell you how often I think about the yellowtail taquitos. I would honestly fly out just to eat yellowtail taquitos and come straight home. It...

This is my husband's “I would fly out to eat there and come right home” spot. It is delicious and fun--I highly recommend the lumpia, fries, wings, kimchi fried rice, and short ribs.

Okay, full disclosure: I am a Hunter Thompson fan. I cannot go to Vegas without a pilgrimage to Circus Circus. It's my opportunity to pay homage to the grittiness of Vegas past--and to say hello to my old friend, the merry-go-round. Huffing ether bef...

Particularly if you're going to LV with kids, you HAVE to go to Sugar Factory. It is so fun, and they have the very best whipped cream in the entire world.

If you're a fan of VPR or LVP, you've got to pop into one of Lisa's restaurants on the strip. Vanderpump a Paris is a luscious, cozy, decadent experience nestled inside the Paris resort. The caviar bites (30 layer dauphinoise potatoes with creme frai...

I never claimed to NOT be a giant dork. I am Cable Guy-level obsessed with Medieval Times, and getting to see Tournament of Kings in Vegas was SUCH a cool experience. I loved analyzing and appraising all the elements to compare and contrast with the ...

Confession Time: Walking into the Mirage off the street, particularly when it is scorching hot and the pavement smells like exhaust and sweat…to have those doors open and the scent of paradise and a blast of ice cold AC hit you…it's one of the most i... 

BUT! There's always Aroma Retail, purveyor of Vegas resort scents for your home. This is the scent for the lobby--the casino scent is slightly fruitier (I'm linking it in a different post).

This is the absolute best karaoke in Vegas. The service is top notch, the bar is comfortable, and the vibes are impeccable. Last time I was there, Joey Fatone came in!

Speaking of Hunter Thompson, why not stay where he and Dr. Gonzo happened upon an anti-drug cop convention in Fear and Loathing? This resort is a classic on the strip, with the swanky mid-century vibe that I desperately want to never fade away from t...

Buffets in Las Vegas don't hold the same magic they did in the Before Times, but Bacchanal is here to say the buffet is here to stay. It truly is a festival decadence, and the quality of selections is way better than what you've seen at buffets elsew...

I am an MGM girlie, it's true. I got locked into their rewards program years ago, and that is the bucket that I prioritize on my trips. I stay at MGM resorts most often, and I have never had a bad experience. My favorite bang-for-your-buck location i...
