We started the day by going to Bouchon restaurant inside of the Venetian for brunch. This is one of our favorite restaurant in Vegas! Everything is so yummy especially their pastries and bread. We had some raw oysters and bloody mary to start and I had the Croque Madame which was SO delicious. Our friend had the Burger and they said it was super delicious! There is another Bouchon at the Venetian/Palazzo but this one is just a small bakery/coffee place so make sure you check out the restaurant one! (The outdoor area is super cute too!)

We watched LOVE by Cirque du soleil this night. I was SO SO SOOO excited to watch this show since I've been wanting to watch this one for the longest time! Its supposed to be one of the BEST shows in Vegas! But....sad to say I did not like the show...I have heard a lot of people say they loved it so give it a try if you love the beatles but as for myself and our friends, it was just way to slow and some of our friend fell asleep. Maybe because we were expecting more action since it was a Cirque show but this one unfortunetly fell at the bottom of our fav show list.

We decided to grab some Korean BBQ after the show. We took a short taxi ride from the Wynn and went to Sura BBQ in Chinatown. Its an all you can eat Korean BBQ for around $35 per person. I think its a great deal! Everything was yummy and we were stuffed to the max!!


To end our night, we hopped on the taxi again to head to Fremont street ( Downtown Las Vegas). My husband and I have been here during the day but this was our first time experiencing the night life here. It was a Saturday night and it was PACKED!!! So many pretty lights and was so lively!! Music playing people dancing and overall I highly recommend it if your looking for a fun time off the strip. Its only about 10-15min from the strip and if you do gamble, I heard its more inexpensive to gamble at these casinos then on the strip.

Fried green tomato BLT

Deviled Eggs

Fried chicken

Waffles

Iceburg wedge with huge bacon!

For our last day there, we headed to YardBird for brunch in the Venetian. OMG it was SOO good! Highly recommend for brunch!!! The best things we ordered were...Fried green tomato BLT and the Mac and Cheese. They were SOO GOOD!!!! My husband is already talking about wanting to go there again and its only been 5 days since we ate there! The server was super nice and friendly and we had a great experience!!! Definetly try the Fried green tomato BLT even if thats the only thing you try!!! ( with a cold beer maybe?! :))


For dinner we went to Bacchanal buffet inside of the Ceasers Palace. Although I typically really dislike going to buffets and have never been to a buffet I like, we gave this one a shot since it was one of the highest rated buffets in Las Vegas (and there are SO many!!). I think it was around $65 per person not including tip. We decided we wanted to eat around 6pm since we had a show to catch at 8pm. We figured since it was a Sunday there might be a line so we got there at 530pm. There was a line but it didn't look too bad...WRONG! Over an hour later we finally sat down and...I was SO excited/hungry that I forgot to take pictures!!! :( FAIL!
The buffet was super big and pretty and they had so much stuff to choose from! Asian, Italian, Steak, Salad, King crabs..you name it, they had it! By the time I got to dessert, I was already stuffed so I definetly remembered to snap a pic before I chowed down! haha The dessert display was the prettiest out of all! The little touches they put on the dessert and display was sooo cute!! I wanted to try ALL the dessert but I ended up settling(?!) for the things pictured above. Gosh, if only I had an infinite stomach...Definetly try this buffet out if you like buffets or if you are just SUPER hungry ;)

To end our trip ( we had a red eye flight back home) we went to the show Absinthe in the Ceasers Palace. Their show is preformed right outside of the Ceasers in a small circus tent like place. We were kinda weary looking at the small tent compared to other shows we watched preformed in huge stages but let me tell you...the show was SOOOO GOOD!!!! It is a combination of comedy, acrobatics, magic and all that good stuff and there is never a dull moment!!! I think this is the best show we've seen in Vegas!! Defintely watch this one if you want to watch a great show for a lower cost! ( its about $20-30 less than cirque shows etc)
That sums up our awesome Vegas trip!! Hope ya'll enjoyed and feel free to message/email me if you have any questions!!

P.S we purchased all our tix on the same day or the day before with tix4tonight Las Vegas. There are small kiosks/shops everywhere on the strip and you can stand in line and buy them for discounted price! They have tix for most shows and dinner shows as well. The staff there are so helpful and nice! I highly recommend buying from them!
