Las Vegas Day 2️⃣ Downtown Food, Drinks & Exploring + Tips

Day 2 in order (yes, it was basically one long food tour 😋): 🥟 Din Tai Fung: If you're craving Chinese food, this is a solid choice. Food is tasty, but be prepared for a long wait if you walk in! ⏳ 🍨 Aria Patisserie: Delicious gelato — pistachio flavor highly recommended! 🍳 Eggslut: A must-try for brunch — so good! 🚶 Las Vegas Strip: Wandered around downtown. Spent a lot of time getting lost, honestly! 😅 🛍️ ABC Store: Great chain with several locations — prices are good, especially on drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). Lots of souvenirs, fridge magnets, and frequent sales! 🎁 Popmart: Also stopped by, but nothing too special. 🍹 Vanderpump à Paris: A beautifully themed restaurant/bar — perfect for pretty cocktails and vibes. 🔥 Chippendales: THE highlight of the day!! This show is absolutely incredible — I recommend it to everyone! It’s bold but not over-the-top. My friends and I loved it so much, we’d definitely go again — in Vegas or even in New York! 💃🕺 What I learned in Vegas: 🚖 Rideshare Pick-Up: Downtown, you must go to designated pick-up zones. If unsure, head to any hotel entrance or valet area — the app will show the exact spot once you book. 🏨 Finding Places: Many shops and restaurants are hidden inside hotels. Check which hotel it’s in first, then follow signs inside. Ask staff if needed — relying only on maps can be confusing! Sometimes you even have to walk through casino areas to get there. 📍 Distances Can Deceive: Places look close on the map, but often it’s over 1 mile — better to take a rideshare. It’s affordable, especially if you split with 3–4 people! 🛒 ABC Store Tips: Cheap, convenient, and everywhere. Great for drinks (alcoholic/regular) and souvenirs — plus frequent discounts! ⚠️ Fremont Street Caution: Be extra careful with your belongings here — the area can get crowded and lively. Even our driver reminded us to stay aware! 👀 #LasVegasTravel #VegasTips #FoodAndFun #GirlsTrip #VegasVibes 🎰✨🍹
