This is like the Veranda Room of Vegas ... every time I'm in Seattle, this is my must-stop place for a meal, no matter how short of a stay I have. Tip: they have an amazing "steamed" quiche that I have never seen the like of anywhere else. (I say "steamed" because I don't know if it actually is steamed, but the consistency is smooth and fluffy and soft and absolutely amazing.) There's usually a quiche du jour or two that you can ask about. Usually walk-ups are okay, but during prime brunch/lunch/dinner hours, you may wish to nevertheless call ahead - they are quite busy, though the turnover rate is usually pretty good.

A two-Michelin star restaurant, it has an equally excellent delicatessen store on the bottom floor and the restaurant is right above it. Definitely plan ahead if you want to eat here - it's not as bad as month-long waiting lists, but you should start calling them at least 1-3 weeks before you plan to eat there. http://www.tommybahama.com/TBG/Stores_Restaurants/Las_Vegas.jsp
NOT ALL TOMMY BAHAMAS RESTAURANTS ARE CREATED EQUAL BEWARE BEWARE This particular one is the best by head and shoulders, and I visit it at least once every time I'm in Vegas. Coconut shrimp and chicken tortilla soup are must haves. www.cafe-21.com
Their brunches and dinners are equally great. Reservations recommended though they have enough space that sometimes turnover will be quick enough for you to walk-in even with large parties. Be adventurous in your ordering. I am very sad that I lost the picture of their omelette special with its squash blossoms and humongous cast-iron skillet flower-like presentation. That one is worth getting every single time. http://www.tantris.de
A three Michelin star restaurant. My favorite in Munich, right alongside the Dallmayr. Call ahead for reservations - they're usually able to accommodate a few days out, but a week or two would be safest. |

I love to eat, and with the metabolism that I have, I eat often. Here's some of my favorite places.
(Sorry, you won't find any detailed descriptions of the scrumptiousness of the food, I'd rather be eating than writing about it. The fact that I even went through the effort of posting it to this site is basically a ringing endorsement that you should visit.) Archives
