Problem: Three of my friends and I, all hungry and a little hungover, came to the Egg&I around 2pm on a Monday so it wasn't busy at all. The banana nut muffins are soft delicious fluffy and warm, served to you before your main course comes. The portions are well sized, prices wern't outrageous, but the waitress forgot my friend's toast. I had a crepe, which comes with ranch potatoes. It was much more dough-y that I expected and would have liked. Makes me wish I just ordered a scramble. Overall I liked driving off the strip to see outer Vegas to get good food at not ridiculous prices.

Problem: I ordered the Farm Burger. It had duck bacon and a fried egg on it. I ordered it mid-rare and it came out perfectly cooked. I liked it but I didn't love it like I'd expected. It lacked saltiness. Maybe the egg yolk got in the way of the duck bacon flavor. Truffle Parmesan fries were good but the parmesan became a separate entity as it didn't stick to the fries. It just flaked off. The sauces that came on the side were delicious. The chicken wings were underwhelming. I couldn't taste enough wasabi and not enough 'hellfire'. My buddy ordered the Chanterelle Burger, mid-rare and it came out well done. That pretty much ruined the flavor it might have had. We couldn't taste the figgy onion jam it was supposed to have had. We didn't make a fuss, nor did we want to wait for another burger to be made correctly. My kids each had the Standard Dawg. Huge and DELICIOUS! Yay! They are cooked differently than any dawg I've had. Some kinda wiener magic happening there. The bun was cool, too. Kinda like a pretzel. The best part of the meal was the Butterscotch Pudding and Banana Shake. LOVED this. And I don't even love shakes, ever. This was fanf*ckingtastic. It comes in a tall, slender glass, topped with a big layer of pudding, fresh whipped cream and a snickerdoodle cookie. Every single layer of flavor worked outrageously well together. I would go back just for this. In fact, I'd try all the other shakes, too. Service was fine. Our waitress seemed like a pleasant automaton. I like that the kitchen is open so you can see them working in there. I wish I had been more impressed with the burgers.

Problem: The BF and I were on a mission for hops. He's doing a reddit "bomb" and the person who he was gifting was big into homebrewing. The girl helping us was really helpful with talking about the hops and breaking the flavor profiles, answering our questions. We decided to get a few packets of hops to send along with cigars. While we were here for a gift, it sparked our interest that perhaps we should actually use the homebrewing equipment we have. We have so many interests and somehow this was one thing that got put aside for another project. If you don't want to learn to brew on your own, they offer classes here for beer or wine. It's a $60 class where you make the beer one session, then come back when it's ready to bottle it. The one cool thing is that it's not $60 each person, this is $60 for each brew class. So if you want to brew a batch with a few friends, you're welcome to have up to 4 or 5 people. They start you off easier with using a extract as the main for your brew and you can add a bit of flavoring, hops, etc than have to cook the grains and brew from a mash. Of course if you want to grab equipment and try your hand at home, they would walk you through it. I told her we have gear and she said we're more than welcome to bring it all in and have her explain what to do with each item and guide us through the ingredients we need for a batch. Pretty solid brew store. It's neatly laid out, they have a good supply of hops, yeasts, and bulk bins and packages of grains and flavorings as well as items for wine making and soda as well. The customer service was really friendly and thorough with information. Apparently it's a father daughter team at the store and I assume the girl helping us was the daughter. We will be back. Whether it's coming for the class or for ingredients, I should definitely use our brew gear and try our hand at it.

Problem: I stayed here with three of my friends for a weekend in Vegas. It is new, built recently about a year ago. As soon as we walked in a bellhop kindly escorted my boyfriend and our bags right to the front of Nobu. It is tucked away inside Caesar's palace so it is easy to miss it. It is an extremely small part of Caesar's right by the gambling tables. The room was very clean and roomy which was very enjoyable and hte concierge was always so kind to help us if we had any questions or concerns. I would look to stay here again. it is a central location on the strip to close to many things or walking distance! Lots of food around it as well and great service.
