Somewhere along the line, Vegas became known for (among many other things) its buffets. Let me be clear; I'm no fan of buffets in general. I suppose if you're the type who cannot decide on a particular menu item, then the smorgasborg of choices can be appealing. My problem though is that it's very indicative of our culture. We overdo EVERYTHING. As a result, I tend to overeat at buffets. This of course is bad on a lot of levels but most importantly, while in Vegas I want to be carrying around ZERO added weight. I may be a pretty boy, but this is in no way me being vain. This is me wanting to enjoy every waking moment there. Buffets just weigh me down. I become sluggish because buffet's are momemtum killers.
Recently, we decided that sushi would become the official Vegas food of VegasRy.com. Sushi is the total anti-buffet. And I'm not talking about having some rolls at the buffet in addition to the beef with brocolli and pizza. Sushi is the perfect complement to a weekend of drinking with little sleep. It's enough content to keep you upright, yet won't slow your roll. I highly recommend checking out the Sushi House at TI, Shinaro at Bellagio, or Nobu at Hard Rock instead of one of the countless buffets in town. You'll thank me later.
On this note, I noticed that Vegas may lose its title as buffet king to a city in Ohio as detailed in this aricle
here. Maybe this will help Vegas lose the association by so many to buffets.
We have been known to have a drink or two when we are in Las Vegas, and after that one or two sometimes you need to use the restroom. Now we don't mean to be crude here at VegasRy, but there are times you want to hold on to that 11 dollar Gin and Tonic, or that 'free' beer that you ordered while dropping $150 at the BlackJack table.
As everyone knows Vegas is very dry and usually extremely warm. As a result, dehydration is rampant. To combat this I have a drink with me at all times. It's usually a refreshing Ten & Tonic or one of the many other drinks we here at VegasRy love. These beverages have been documented in great detail in several past posts and in many yet to come. By combatting dehydration, you'll have little concern about bottle lip which is very common in Vegas. (Bottle lip can also be prevented by drinking only non-bottled drinks.) Anyways, back to the real reason for this post. A lot of good things come from staying hydrated. To name a few: you're healthier, less of the aforementioned bottle lip, clearer complexion, enhanced libido etc. One downside does exist though and that is you will inevitably need to dispose of all that liquid at some point. And once you do, you'll need to more and more frequently throughout the day. As a result, you must keep this in mind when choosing where to gamble. I make sure to only shoot craps at a table that is near a public restroom. In the rare event that this table is rediculously hot and I have an uncontrollable urge, I can make a swift run to relieve my humanly needs and return in as little time as possible. Time is precious because you never know when the tide will turn and house edge will kill the momentum. It's best to scope out the casino for the best-accessed restrooms from the floor and then choose a gaming table or machine of your fancy nearby. Cheers!

When in Caesar's Palace, the drink of choice is the 007. It's not on the menu any longer but the bartenders will still know what you're talking about. It's a delicious concoction for Barcari 'O and 7up. Enjoy!
