Las Vegas Summer 2013


Sushi Samba, Public House & Max Brenner



 I can't remember what these drinks were. The waiter suggested
them to us. I do remember how they tasted though.
Horrible! Mine tasted like a glass full of rum. No 
sweetness or fruitiness at all. Dawn dumped sugar 
into hers. They look nice though.

 Yellowtail with jalapeno and lemongrass

 Berkshire Pork Gyoza with Kabocha Pumpkin puree
and su-shoyu dipping sauce
 An assortment of rolls. From right to left. Pacific Roll: king

avocado, kaiware, shiso, red onion and chimichurri.

Some people go to Vegas for the gambling. I go for the food! 
This was our first day in town. Lunch at Sushi Samba sounded
good and didn't disappoint. The Spicy Yellowtail is one of
my favorite sushi items ever. Very good! The rolls were all good 
too. I will say this about Sushi Samba. Boy it's expensive
for what you get. The Yellowtail dish is 14 bucks for 
four small bites. Needless to say we were still hungry
when we finished. Not a problem in Vegas tho...we just 
swung in Public House for some Poutine and Bone 
Marrow. The Poutine at Public House is about as good
as it gets...finger licking good. I love the bone marrow
but everyone else seems grossed out by it. Oh well. Later
that evening we had dessert at Max Brenner in the Forum 
Shops. Check out the sunday Yosh got....its as big as her 
head. Dawns fondue was good but i don't think she would 
get it again. Michael and I had milkshakes.
