text: There we were wandering through the seedy underbelly of Paris looking for a juicy burger and some fatty fatty fries How strange though that the streets of the City of Light were clogged with onearmed bandits and seminude girls in tiny cancan outfits And how oddly chunky and unchic the Frenchies were gettingnnOh wait Rightyho We were in fact still in the YOUS albeit in the Vegas zone Still dazed from our flight the traumatic carrental Borg Palace at McCarran and from getting an unexpected upgrade to a suite the size of Nevada at Harrahs for bucks marble clad Jacuzzi the size of my bathroom a wet bar view of the Strip disco balls whooweeee we were totally looking for a caloriefest to celebrate the beginning of our driving trip around the Southwest and we would read some good recommendations for Le Burger Brasserie Plus we are both Parisophiles and we were hungry so the deed was donennThey do not make it easy to find whomever the Dark Forces of Casino Restaurant Planning are but eventually we found ourselves to the slick yet blandly sports barish brasserie Now this place resembled a Paris brasserie about as much as Spongebob Squarepants resembles Pepe Le Pew but it was okay It is a large multilevel space but apparently not large enough to house a restroom For that you had to wander into Ballys casino and mix with the weeping lady with the Farrahcut and the embroidered jeans Ah the million tender heartbreaks of VegasnnFood I had the Frenchieburger or whatever they call their burger with Brie and carmelized onions I asked for it rare and it came medium Given that flagrant disregard for my bloodlust the damn thing was pretty good And the frieswell they were supahdupah It must have been the double frying they gotMy thighs expanded just taking that first sniff but they would been dipped in rosemary and possibly fried in lard so who was I to argue HeeeaaaaaveeeeennnnnnS who was still not quite as wicked as he was going to be got a turkeyburger I say no more He enjoyed it and claimed it was juicy and tasty I thoght he was going to go all manorexic on me and disdain the fries but after the first few he too started making those embarassing primal sounds and we just stopped talking for awhile nnIt was Cinco de Mayo and they had Coronas which in Vegas seems to signify a bargain Clearly they have never been to Pittsburgh the bucketoscotch special at Dells I disdained the South of the Border Lizard Pee and got a nice stout Black nTan to wash down what i was hoping would be a nice bloody patty Be that as it may our meal was just fine and not as exorbitant as many of the gotcha casino eateries In fact we passed on the mundane dessert offers the usual brownies and crappy cheesecake offerings and waddled off to work of frys worth of calories in the sweltering and carayzee Vegas night
