Honey Pig

Craving bibimbap one night, we headed to Honey Pig to give them a try. Only problem was, they don’t serve bibimbap, at least not on their regular menu. Hmm… come to think of it, I probably should have asked. No worries, though, as we decided to split an order of bulgogi instead. The meat was [...]

Monta Ramen

I was pretty excited to hear that a new ramen-ya (ramen shop) had opened in Vegas, a few doors down from one of my favorite Japanese restaurants, Raku, no less! As far as I know, there have only been two true ramen-yas in Vegas. One is still open, but on the opposite side of town [...]

Bachi Burger

Bachi Burger is a new restaurant, bringing a new burger concept to Las Vegas. Asian inspired! I love Umami Burger in Los Angeles, so I had to give Bachi Burger a try. We decided to split two burgers, the Kalbi Burger shown above, and Kiki’s Burger. To start, we shared an order of Bachi’s Pickles, [...]

Miko’s Izakaya

Another place I’ve been meaning to get to, but haven’t until now because of its location.. pretty much the opposite side of town for me. I’d heard their ramen was pretty good, so recently we made the trek out to Miko’s. The restaurant is clean, fairly small, and has a very homey atmosphere. I liked [...]

Korean Garden BBQ House

Having a craving for bibimbap one day, we headed to Korean Garden BBQ… another place in Chinatown I’d been meaning to try. While we didn’t order any of the BBQ dishes, what we did order was really good. First, the banchans we were given were all fresh and tasty… not a bad one in the [...]

Sushi Ko

I’ve walked by Sushi Ko several times, but whenever we’re in this area we’re usually going to Buzz BBQ next door. I was craving sushi one afternoon, so we finally made it past Buzz and over to get some sushi. They have multiple lunch specials, including sushi specials where you are given quite a generous [...]

Krung Siam

I’d been hearing good things about Krung Siam, which opened late last year. The restaurant it replaced was Malaysian, which I wasn’t that impressed with, and I’d hoped for better from this Thai restaurant. The interior hadn’t changed much; it was still clean and contemporary inside. I decided to try the drunken noodles, mild, with [...]

E-Jo

I had a hard time finding this restaurant, and when I did, it was quite tiny and empty inside. And the menu was pretty small as well. Instead of the typical multiple banchans, we were given a small cube of tofu with scallions and shoyu. Plus, we were presented with two jars of kimchee, one [...]

Kabuki

As part of a ‘blogger promotion’, (which included a subsidized meal) we went to Kabuki the other night. I’ve walked by the restaurant numerous times (it’s located right across from H&M AND Yogurtland!) but this was my first time trying the food there. For some reason, I was expecting a somewhat Americanized and commercialized version [...]

HK Star

I’d seen HK Star on several prior visits to China Mama, and we finally got around to trying it for lunch one day. I love a place with good lunch specials, and was quite surprised to see what a huge lunch special menu they have. Specials are available every day (weekends included) from 11-4:30, and [...]
