Eating Las Vegas
August 30th, 2007 by antoineIn a city where over the top means you’ve only just begun and too much isn’t half enough, the Vegas buffet takes pride of place.
This isn’t fancy-schmancy dining – where you get a dime-sized nibble of salmon topped with a sprig of watercress and squirts of four different-coloured sauces for $72.
This is the sweet smell of excess – industrial eating in all its belly-busting, butt-ballooning glory. Stack a couple of plates on each arm, grab a shovel and dig in.
“From 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., we get about 3,500 people through here,” says Gabe Zapata, the manager for Flavors buffet at Harrah’s.
