I was in Vegas recently for Cisco Live! It always amazes me how decadent Vegas can be - you work hard all day, but then you go out and have a great meal, and then party all night at the most glitzy clubs. I was there for four days - and whew, was that too much to handle!
Las Vegas is known for it's fancy restaurants and celebrity chefs. It's no wonder then, that one of the highlights of this trip was the amount of good food that was consumed. This review though, belongs to the restaurant that has to be the best restaurant I have eaten at in Vegas. That might not mean much - I'm hardly an expert on food or the best restaurants in Vegas. But let's just say that I could not stop eating, and when I did I was left with a feeling of such immense gratification!
Anyway, getting to the point, the restaurant I'm gushing about is China Grill in Mandalay Bay. It is a fusion Asian restaurant, serving sushi and sake for Happy Hour and dinner after. We went for a group dinner from work, and our server kept trying to convince us to get the Tasting menu for $69!!! "No, thank you" we said, and ordered off the regular menu. Tofu tots with miso cilantro dipping sauce, Udon noodles with vegetables in a spicy hoisin sauce, crispy spinach and three kinds of creme brulee later I could barely move, but I was in food heaven! I think the sentiment was shared with the rest of the folks at the table. Vrishab in fact insisted that this meal deserved a blog entry even though it was not in the foggy city :)
