Q: I have a lot of international friends that love this place. I'm not quite sure why, but it's the hotel of choice for the international visitor. Whether they are from Europe or Asia, the first thing they tell me is they are visiting Vegas and are staying at Paris. Personally, I love Paris because of the shopping. Oh, and who can forget about the throngs of Midwesterns with their shorts and white sneakers?

Q: Writing this after my third trip to the Grand Concourse in Pittsburgh, one of my favorite "non-chain" restaurants in the area. After my family's recent trip to Pittsburgh, they bragged of how amazing this restaurant. After some hesitation, I decided to give this restaurant a try. Would it live up to its name? Oh, yes it did! While on a leisure trip in Pittsburgh, I decided to wander over to Station Square on Sunday morning for their legendary brunch. Upon arrival, there were several valets, waiting upon the stopping of my vehicle. Since we forgot reservations, we had to sit in the bar section, so I would highly recommend reservations. Nonetheless, even the bar section (with young children) was memorable. The buffet had everything you could possibly ask for; pancakes and french toast, bacon and ham, primer rib, chicken, rolls, salads, etc.; almost anything you could imagine was on this buffet-even caviar. And at $20 per seat, It was a steal! So when you travel to Pittsburgh, make sure you check out the wonderful brunch at the Grand Concourse.

Q: They cut my dog's ear badly and charged me full price before they showed me how bad it was. I was told it was a nip at first. After they took my credit card ran it, them they brought her out and told that she was taken to the vet and had to have it super glued. Her cut is a mess, on top of the gash on the top of my babies ear! I posted a photo of her ear to show that this is no "nip".
