What to Eat at CES? Save This Vegas Food Guide! 🍽️✨
Every year during CES, friends always ask us: “Where should we eat in Vegas?” This list comes from our personal favorites after many trips — not a popularity ranking, but a trusted, no-regrets guide focused on tasty, reliable eats! 🍲 Chinese Food & Comfort Zone for Asian Taste Buds 1️⃣ Big Dan Xi-An Taste Craving authentic Xi’an flavors? This is the spot. Cold skin noodles (liangpi) are consistently good, and the roujiamo and lamb soup buns are hearty and satisfying. 2️⃣ Yunnan Tasty Garden Run by Yunnan locals, their signature xiaoguo mixian (rice noodles in small pot) is light yet flavorful. Also offers malatang and dry pot — great for groups with different cravings! 3️⃣ Space BBQ Right next to Yunnan Tasty Garden. Perfect for late-night post-CES bites — lamb skewers, grilled tendons, and veggies are all solid picks. 4️⃣ ShangHai Taste Jiangzhehu-style classics: pan-fried buns (shengjian) and soup dumplings (xiaolongbao) are on point. A safe choice for those avoiding spicy food. 5️⃣ Nǐ Xiǎo Lóng More mainstream savory flavors.
