Burger Bar: Las Vegas

I’m a burger freak, ask anyone that knows me and they’ll tell you how much I love my burgers. But after trying like a thousand different burger places you come across a lot of good ones, it gets hard to differentiate the burger at that high level. I mean I can dismiss a burger for really minor stuff like not having enough mustered or ketchup.

The point that I’m trying to make is that we don’t have to compare two burger placed head-to-head, we can just say that its great and recommended. especially not all people’s taste is alike.

Back to the main subject, Burger Bar located in Mandalay Bay is considered to have the best burgers in Las Vegas. so it was a no-brainer. I went there yesterday just before The Lion King Show – that was awesome by the way. it was a 45 min wait for a table or I can sit immediately on the bar. The bar it was, after a quick read through the menu I decided to go with the American Classic, it had beef patty American cheese, crispy bacon, tomato, onion, on sesame bun ($13). I also ordered a Nutella shake, which seemed like a good idea at the time.

The burger was very good, and definitely recommended for anyone in Vegas. But don’t get out of your way just to try it.

P.S. no burger pics, I was hungry and ate it before realizing that I didn’t take any pictures.

The Lion King – Review

The Lion King is the best disney movie in my opinion. It has a great storyline, lovable characters and great songs. all the requirements for making a great show. But thats not all, it takes skill to adapt a great movie to a Broadway show. But The Lion King already been running for 13 years and its been hailed as one of the best shows. everybody that saw it recommended it. My wife has been telling me to see it for a few years now, I finally did.

After seeing it I also highly recommend watching The Lion King. Its not just for kids and families is a work of art. great singing and costumes and of course the story and characters are all there.

Wayne Brady Show – Review

If you don’t know who Wayne Brady is let me till you that you missed out on one of the funniest show on TV. He was a co-star in the hit TV series Who’s Line is it Anyway along with Drew Carey, Ryan Stiles and Colin Mochrie. just go to youtube and type in the “Who’s line is it anyway” and enjoy.

The live show follows the theme of Who’s Line is it Anyway, its all improvised, and there for no 2 shows are ever the same, and I believe it. Seeing Wayne work live in front of you really makes you believe that what he does it nothing short of spectacular.

I laughed so hard that my eyes where in tears for the better half of the show.

If I have time, I will definitely do it one more time.

Blue Man Group – Review

I attended the Blue Man Group show yesterday evening. I never been to any of their shows before(apart from some youtube videos) so I didn’t know what to expect. But it surpassed my expectations and was pleasantly surprised.

The blue man group is a mix of a Musical/Comedy with no dialect at all and just depends on the body language, but they do it brilliantly.

The only problem I had with the show is that in some instances, it feels that they are just dragging their feet a little. which I feel dropped the tempo of the show. But otherwise its a must see.

I Think I Just Had The Best Slider Ever!!

We went to a place called Fix, its a restaurant/Bar within the Bellagio. After reading the menu and coming across some sliders I just had to try them.

Well, we are in a dispute a here, as one of my friends disagrees. but I think that the sliders are the best that I’ve tasted so far. just look at that juicy patty, YUM!!

The 3 sliders have cheese, tomatoes and pickles. And come with fries too. the order will cost you $30.

Sorry for the bad pic quality, they were taken with the Nexus One in a really dark place.

Arrived!!

We arrived at earlier today at McCarran International Airport around noon, which meant that we have the whole day a head of us, Excellent.

The drive to the Bellagio hotel too about 10-15 minutes, there was a little traffic. And the chck-in took another 30 minutes.

According to the 2 taxi drivers and 2 receptionists, this is the busiest they ever seen Vegas. I don’t know if that is a good thing or a bad thing. But this is what we have and we must live with it.

The View from our room.

The weather is excellent, sunny with a cool breeze. Just perfect.

We plan to do lots of things today, lots.

I really liked the movie. Solid acting, good screen writing and directing. The movie is minimalistic but excellent. Highly recommended for all types of movie lover.
