Melissa and I have both been uber busy this month and we apologize for the lack of updates. Or I do, at least.
Your Place
On her recommendation though, a friend and I checked out Your Place, a Thai restaurant down University near San Pablo. An unassuming exterior hides a rich decor and very good and affordable Thai cusine. Featuring a wide selection of vegetable curries and dishes, alongside your Thai staples, Your Place offers each dish for $5-8. We ordered the yellow curry and the basil chicken, both of which were delicious. If you have a car, or enjoy the 51 bus, I highly recommend you check this place out. In a city bursting with Thai restaurants, they all start to blend in together. But the friendly service here and the quality of the food make this a place you must check out. So pass up Plearn or Thai Basil and try Your Place.
Sunrise Cafe at the Palms Casino and Resort
The roomies and I went to Vegas over Veteran's Day weekend and ate three meals. (Okay, four.) Here was our meal plan for the three days we were there: day 1) Bellagio buffet for lunch. Palms for after club meal, day 2) Aladdin buffet for lunch, day 3) Paris buffet for lunch. Two of the buffets I've reviewed before, but we tried Aladdin's Spice Market Buffet this time. And after my third trip to Vegas in a year, I've got to say that Paris has the best buffet. So if you have to pick one to splurge on, Paris is it. Don't bother stopping at Aladdin. However the place I do want to talk about is the Sunrise Cafe at the Palms. After a night at Rain, we ventured over to the Palms requsite all night diner for late night specials. Besides almost slipping and breaking my neck and Jen's imaginary run-in with Britney, the Sunrise Cafe features the best steak and eggs I've ever had, hands down. For $4.99, you get two eggs your way (over-medium), home fries and a huge steak (medium-rare). Jen and I insightfully ordered the meal while Jina got the chicken strips (5.99). The meal comes with free biscuits as well. The cafe is in the back of the casino, near the nightclubs. It's a great place to go while you're at the Palms anyway, at Rain, Ghostbar, or just trying to spot celebs in the casino. Don't gamble there tho- they'll rob you blind. But at least you'll be surrounded by young hip people. Or young people who think they are hip. Anyway, take my advice, get the steak and eggs for $4.99 between midnight and 5am. Maybe I'll run into you there ;)
