...the only type of marathon I will ever run.

Vegas FM Research

With the Las Vegas Food Marathon fast approaching, I've been doing research to find the best restaurants and dishes.
Lotus of Siam is a unanimously voted selection. Lindo Michoacan and Bonito Michoacan are top contenders as well. I don't know if it's marathon-worthy, but Rosemary's seems to get high marks for off-the-strip dining. Vegas's Chinatown has a few choices and just west of Chinatown is Joyful House, which seems good. There are a lot of dessert choices including Ritter's Frozen Custard, Glacier Ice Cream and Jean-Philippe Patisserie. Then there are all the restaurants on the strip Michael Mina, Nobhill, Bartolotta di Mare, Bouchon, etc (where we'd probably just choose from one that has a strong bar menu). Much more info to come...

Went to Rosemary's last November. Best meal I have ever had -- EVER. We were the only tourists in the place, and we couldn't have felt more welcome. The chef sent out several "extras" for us, and the staff was great. Excellent selection of beers. Well worth the $50 round trip cab fare from the strip. I would be willing to go back to Vegas solely to eat there again!

Thank you. In that case maybe we'll pull it from the marathon and just go for a whole meal...
