HB and I have been to Vegas together a few times (sometimes with the girls, sometimes with the BFs, sometimes just us two), and have talked about checking out the Bally’s Sterling Brunch (supposedly the best buffet in all of Las Vegas) quite a bit. However, when other people have been with us, they have hardly wanted to fork over the cash, so we’ve always opted out. With just us two, though, we were like, well, why not, let’s see what the fuss is! The Sterling Brunch – reservations recommended – costs $85/person and – yes, you read that right, [...]

After we’d gorged ourselves at the Rio Buffet, it took about 9 hours for HB to actually say, “I’m hungry.” Which is kind of amazing – the H in HB stands for Hungry. What was even more amazing was that I was still absolutely not hungry, but you don’t stand in HB’s way when she says she’s hungry. If you’re smart, you step aside and let her lead the way. She led us directly to Fatburger, knowing that I hadn’t eaten meat in about 6 weeks, she thought wisely that I’d want a burger. HB loves In & Out, but [...]
Vegas Gluttony: Carnival World Buffet at the Rio
Oops, I forgot to take a photo of the outside… but it’s pretty easy to find. If you take any of the FREE shuttles from Bally’s/Paris or Harrah’s to Rio (you don’t have to be staying at any of those hotels to take the free shuttle!), it drops you right in front of the entrance to the casino that leads straight to this buffet. And if you’re really nice… well, you can email me and I’ll email you a coupon for this buffet, $5 off per person in your party up to 4 people. (Yes, I’ll email you the coupon [...]

Everyone has their rituals when they go to Vegas. Mine is to run to the roulette table and place $20 on 27 until it hits. Well, I only do that if it’s my birthday. Which, okay, was only once. It took two tries to hit, by the way, so I walked away from the table $700 richer. Anyway, the point is, HB’s ritual is to get a tea latte from The Coffee Bean (referred to as Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf) every day that she can. So, shortly after we landed, dropped our luggage off at our hotel and freshened up, [...]
