    How much construction was left? Went to shake shack in March and walked around the property after. It seemed nowhere near being done

    The Monte Carlo rooms that have been renovated and opened are much better than they used to be. The rooms associated with the partner (can’t remember the name), will be very, very nice from what I’ve heard.

    -Charge everything to the room
    - always use your card when you play
    - start betting a higher amount than you want ...do it for a few rolls/ hands while the Pitt boss is writing down your info....i think hes calculating your avg bet at this point too.
    - head to the cashier every time you leave the table.
    - I know for a fact that the PB takes down your initial cash in. I've been asked how many chips I started with, but maybe their fo

    MB is hurting financially. People staying away. I made a point of going to a couple of restaurants there just to show support. Great deals exist for folks willing to stay there.

    Guy rolled a good 30 rolls at the craps table. I've never seen anyone so wasted at the table before...was hilarious....we all had to plead and beg wit the pit boss to not have him kicked out mid roll.



    Well, we're on the same flight back to Atlanta. He's a member of the NHL TV crew (works in the truck during games). Threw him $100 and said thanks. Good dude.


    Naturally, his name is Marty.

    It’s a great food town, although expensive. Go through this thread and you’ll find other recommendations from posters.

    Did Picasso for our anniversary dinner last month. $500 minimum. Best meal I've ever had....didnt know food could taste that good.

    Tried beauty and Essex for the first time at cosmo and it was amazing. Wow.

    Always stop by tacos El gordo and Julian serrano. Had a damn tasty hot dog in the alley....think it's called haute doggery.

    This is a great list. My favorite would be Bazaar Meat. The tasting menu is world class, and they have great Spanish wines to pair. I'd also add E by Jose Andres at Cosmo. Also a HUGE fan of Golden Steer. Great old Vegas feel to it.
