Bargain bites
I love Blogging, sorry I have not been blogging lately, hope you enjoy this one.
Eating good food cheap is a rite of passage for every visitor to Las Vegas, which is home to hundreds of dining deals.
The best meal deal in town is the little Ellis Island Casino. This place isn't featured in the travel guides, but it serves a filet-cut sirloin with salad, potato, vegetable and rolls 24 hours a day for $4.95. Dine during off hours to beat the lines.
This special is just one of three good off-the-menu deals in the area. Terrible's offers a half-chicken dinner that'll easily feed two for $4.95 and a complete T-bone steak dinner and a beer for $7.95 (join the casino slot club and get $3 off), while the nearby Hard Rock Casino has a $7.77 steak-and-shrimp special. Both are available in the coffee shops 24 hours a day, but you have to ask for them.
Across the street, Key Largo serves the best burger deal in town — a half-pounder with the works and a plate full of fries for $1.99.
Las Vegas' famous buffets remain a good value, and $10 smorgasbords dot the landscape, but some pricier deals might attract your interest. About $25 can buy you an unlimited quantity of shellfish, sushi and prime rib. The top gourmet buffets are at the Bellagio, Paris, Aladdin and Mirage.
Each is spectacular, so rely on price to decide. The Mirage and Aladdin are currently priced $5 to $15 below the others, with dinner at $22.50 and $23.99, respectively. Check out the dim sum station, available during all meals (even breakfast) at the Mirage and the Aladdin's Middle Eastern station.
For an end-of-vacation splurge, try the Sunday champagne brunch in the Broiler at Boulder Station, with its seafood, salad, omelet and one-of-a-kind potato-pancake bar for $19.99.
For a big night out, head to one of Las Vegas' great bargain gourmet rooms. These venerable restaurants are known for their sunken booths, old-time maitre d's and super deals on steaks, prime rib and crab legs. Check out the Plaza's Center Stage (with its view of Fremont Street), Gold Coast's Cortez Room, Roberta's at El Cortez and the Yukon Grilles at Arizona Charlie's Decatur or Boulder. Order appetizers and drinks and still get out for less than $50 per couple.
For snacks, try Golden Gate's famous 99¢ shrimp cocktail, Gold Coast's 75¢ hot dogs that come with onions and sauerkraut, and just about anything from Wild Wild West's little-known coffee shop just off the Strip.

So because I missed the point you deleted my comment? I am hurt. You have missed the point of every single one of my blogs yet I have never just deleted you, although now that I know this is the type of friendship we have I may.
I am not deleting it, see my comment is gone too. I think blogger is screwed up,
Cameron, are you plagiarizing blogs now?
