Problem: I arrived at the clinic at 1030am. There were 9 people in front of me. People in the waiting room were cracking jokes about how they hoped I brought a birthday cake since I would turn another year older by the time I left. I waited 3 hours to see the Doctor about my eye. When I finally got to the check up room the doctor came in and took one look at me and said you have a burst blood vessel. Nothing I can do. Sign here. I waited 3 hours for a 1 minute check up. ridiculous. I don't mind waiting but that was too long. Some of the other patients in front were waiting for school physicals. That takes about 15 mins to get the okay for sports. Inefficient use of time by this office. I'm never going back.

Problem: Stitched at first impression is like meeting that perfect guy who claims to be self-made. Successful businessman who built his company from scratch and single-handedly remembers all the details. Well, then it turns out that the kid's really a trust-fund baby who has a housekeeper, an assistant, a cook to help him and yet he's still barely holding himself together. I was impressed with Stitched too when I first laid eyes on the store. That prime real estate at the Cosmo, those smooth-talking salespeople, the sprinkle of designer labels, and of course, that man cave in the back with the shiny leather couches and the Scotch cabinet. The Mr. has been wanting a bespoke suit for a while now and Stitched came close to his heart's desire. After all, they showed us Ermenegildo Zegna cloth, poured us espresso, and talked fast. I have a keen eye for shopping and luxury goods but being that this was an experience for the Mr., I asked my OCD self to take a vacation so he can shop in peace. That was a mistake. We purchased a suit, a jacket, and 2 pairs of pants, all together ringing the bill up to almost a hefty chunk of money, the alterations themselves about being 50 times more than I've ever paid. After missing the first delivery date of the clothes (both of the pants were the wrong length and width as well as the jacket), here we are after barely 3 wears of the clothes and the alterations are coming apart. It is a worst tailor job that I've ever seen, the hemming haphazardly finished and many shortcuts in sewing taken. I can pay about 5% as much and take them somewhere else to have a better job. Go to Stitched if you're buying something that they've bought from another place (like cufflinks or pocket handkerchiefs), if you don't mind paying more and already have your bottle of Scotch parked in their cabinet. Don't let that designer fabric selection fool you, the in-house construction will be very inferior. And in the end, what good is luxury bricks if the build of the house is terrible!

Problem: I can see where an off-season dinner in 95 degrees can cause an off night, but good staff will overcome. Have had pleasant meals at Rita's before, tonight's was horrible, even with the place nearly empty. Calamari appetizer arrived within minutes of ordering, took three bites, and our main plates arrived. Okay, the cooks are bored, but with this view, I really don't want to be rushed. No one asked if we wanted another drink, and no one filled water glasses until just before the check arrived. Did I mention it was 95 degrees? Food was nothing special, could do these enchiladas at home easily. Sorry, but the magic here is gone.

Problem: I come from the San Gabriel Valley... so of course my standards for dim sum is a lot higher than the average Joe. With that said, this restaurant's food was terrible. I could tell that some of the food was the microwaveable kind and none of it tasted flavorful or fresh. The skin of the Har Gow and Shau Mai was practically melting and falling apart. The white rice cake dessert that I love love love, was also falling apart. It all tasted overly cooked/steamed and had no flavor. I guess if you are in Vegas and want dim sum, then this is a good option for you. As for me, I do not plan on coming back.
