Las Vegas|Christmas Eats & Drinks in Vegas 🍽️🎄
1️⃣ New Asian BBQ Heard this is the best dim sum in Vegas! Arrived past 2 PM and it was still packed. The server mentioned they’d stop serving dim sum at 3 PM 😱 — luckily we were seated right before the cutoff, so we grabbed the last carts. Only tried har gow, chive pancake, osmanthus cake, and tofu pudding (been so long! 🥲). Nothing mind-blowing, but my Cantonese cravings were satisfied. Their BBQ looked amazing though! 🦆🦢 2️⃣ Mott 32 Booked early for Christmas dinner at this famous Michelin-starred Cantonese spot. Ordered: crispy beef slices, Alaskan crab vermicelli claypot, morel mushroom tofu, and garlic pepper shrimp claypot 🦐🦀. All dishes were solid and flavorful — high-quality ingredients (as expected from the price), creative yet traditional. Cocktails were nice too. Only letdown was the panna cotta dessert 🫨. 3️⃣ Noodle Pot Randomly found this Taiwanese noodle spot in Chinatown — maybe I was just hungry, but I really loved it! Busy at mealtime, with a line. The beef noodle soup (half tendon, half meat) had chewy noodles and tender, flavorful beef. Veggie trio appetizer was also tasty 😋. But my friend said her beef rice bowl was just okay. 4️⃣ 8 East Went to Fremont Street and tried this recommended spot inside Circa Hotel. Though it’s American-style Chinese, it was surprisingly delicious! The dan dan noodles, mushrooms, duck wraps, and lamb chops were all 🤤. Only miss: the matcha tiramisu was too sweet and heavy — even as a dessert lover, I felt it needed more balance 🥶. 5️⃣ Proper Eats Food Hall Inside Aria Hotel — lots of small eateries here. Went late and just grabbed whatever was open. Sometimes junk food just hits the spot!! 🤗 6️⃣ Bacchanal Buffet Booking ahead for holidays is a must — otherwise, prepare for a long wait. Overall, it’s quantity over quality — don’t expect culinary brilliance 😶🌫️. Desserts especially were disappointing. Still, worth trying once (so you know not to go back 🤭). #LasVegas #VegasTravel #VegasFun #VegasFoodFinds #VegasEats #MustEatInVegas
