I absolutely agree with you guys on Istanbul Mediterranean...it is delicious! We always go for the rice bowl when there! Carbone looked absolutely delicious. Our Italian favorites are BuddyVs at the Venetian and Battistas. But after watching this Carbone is getting added to the list of new places to try! Thanks for taking us along for another fun day in Vegas Sonya and Dave!
Hi Y’All once again- Great vlog as always Dave & Sonia 🤩 Did the Venetian upgrade their pool ? Cuz it looks different since the last time I was there. As well, I had no idea you could walk over to Palazzo pool from the Venetian & vs versa . This must be something new or I’m an idiot 😝. Fun Fact : As a Chef I’ve had the privilege to drink expensive champagnes, ( like Dom Pérignon Rosé for example) and unfortunately champagne is like Nitroglycerin to me ; nevertheless I pour half a glass of orange juice before it has a more manageable taste . Of course the maître d'hôtel, (head waiter ) cries when I do this 😝 So a strong orange Mimosas is my to-go morning drink in Vegas. I too have done the Venetian Ride Share ( Uber) 😝. The chicken parmigiana looks so good (Must be the Italian in me 😝) , as does the Din Tai Fung entrees 😋 . The corner suite at Vdara rocks ! Never been ; gotta try it out . We hope to head to Vegas in August ; it depends on the flights here in Canada ; ton of strikes w/ Westjet & Air Canada, so a bunch of flights are being cancelled; fingers crossed they fix it before we leave… Thank you sharing- Cheers ! Chef Bari
You guys have some good content! I love watching your videos from the slot play to the restaurants and love the honesty when something is Nasty 🤣 Heading to Vegas On Thursday and I’m definitely getting some French Toast 😉
We hope you have a blast in Vegas! Thank you so much for the kind words too❤️! The french toast from Bardot at Aria is amazing, and definitely shareable!
Another fun experience in Vegas Dave & Sonia ; always enjoy the dining cuz it gives me the info I need to either check out or not check out ; the price was indeed a plus cuz of tier points. Fun to see we took the same path you guys walked from Palazzo to The Wynn & the T.I. View ; T.I. changes throughout the years / so much better when it had the pirates 🏴☠️. Thanks again for sharing 😊 Cheers ! Chef Bari
Thank you, Chef! Yes, the pirate show was always a blast to see and the Sirens of TI was a good replacement - not as good but good. There are still a lot more food options we want to try at FB soon!
Hi D&S - the pools are a great way to get some R&R from the casino hustle & bustle. Annoying about the MGM computer snaffu. Park MGM bonus 🤬 Vdara's room view is the bomb. We gotta try Din Tai Fun one of these days - the chocolate dim sum has gotten such wonderful reviews. #DavidShortHair 😆 Great vlog guys, Cheers!!!!!😎🍻
Hey, guys! Pool days definitely help recover from the casino craziness! DTF is fantastic and everything we’ve tried has been stellar - add it to your list!
I gotta stop watching your vlogs while I’m hungry 😂 another round of delicious looking food. That corner suite looks magnificent! I had wondered about trying out the Vdara… hopefully the rest of the stay was splendid as well. Guess I’ll stay tuned to find out 😄
Definitely consider Vdara for a future trip. The size of the room and the connecting walkway to Bellagio and Cosmo is a game changer! With Aria right around the corner it’s like having 3 casinos in one!
@@DaverrasonTravels Huzzah!! All great selling points. That area has always been kind of special/magical 🤷♂️ I feel anyway lol. Just good vibes and I usually have better luck with quality “free” drinks around there. 😅 so having a close by room sounds like a win 👍
Hello Dave and Sonya! 11 Pools and 11 sunburns! Awesome, lets do this! And a break for Mimosas! (or straight up Sparkling wine LOL). Dave is a great bartender. Hello Vdara! or not. Maybe In a few more hours...Remember when you used the be able to talk to a real person, check in at noontime and not have to pay an extra charge? Remember when the computers always worked as well? Those were fun times. The Chicken Parm Sandwich looked legit at Proper Eats and who doesn't like truffle fries? Truffle fries' rule. Why does Willy have Pickles in his Backpack? Does he normally do this kinda thing? You guys were probably downstairs at Excalibur while we were upstairs unpacking LOL! We arrived on the night of the 4th...by the time we got there they thankfully had the computers back up and running. I would love the Muto at the Ski Lodge. My kind of drink. Very nice Vdara suite. One of these days we will have to stay there. Beautiful views for sure. Tik Tack Toe at Aria looked great. I love Pork Bao Buns, another place to add to my list for sure. Nice of Dave to cut his hair for me...he obviously knows what I like. Thanks for another great vlog! Loved it.
Hey, Andy! I only got in a couple of the pools and didn’t make it to all 11! Lol! You guys definitely need to try Vdara on a future trip, having a washer and dryer in the room allowed is to wash clothes before we left so one less thing to do before we got home - they even provide the soap and dryer sheets! Parm was a nice surprise too! And, yes, Willie had pickles in his backpack. There were a bunch of other snacks he had in there too! Lol! Also, I cut my hair just for you Andy!
Willie w/his backpack of goodies is doing it right! I had to rewatch it to see if I heard pickles correctly! Lol. I am Team Short Hair! But whatever makes u feel most comfortable is the winner. Is it just me, or is Huff & Puff super hard to win on?? It just takes and takes!
The ‘backpack-o-fun’ definitely fueled some snack cravings! Lol! Yes, Huff and More Puff is so volatile! We did have some good sessions on it, but in the end it always wins!
Another fantabulous vlog, as always! Din Tai Fung...one of our faves! Try the chocolate buns next visit. OMG they are glorious...you won't be disappointed!
Shocking that mgm was having technical difficulties 😂 Both rooms looked fantastic, love the view at Vdara. Thats quite recommendation for Din Tai Fung, we def have to give it a try. I love that they had a band at Clique, never saw live music there before! I think im in the minority but im team #longhair, if you can do it, you gotta 🤘
Yes, you guys will love Din Tai Fung! The very first time we stayed at the Cosmo (a long time ago) they had a live band performing at the chandelier bar. It was on the first level of the bar and there was a small stage set up right above the bar - so if you were playing at a bartop, the action was right in front of you! We fell in love with the Cosmo at that moment.
Super bummer that Shalom Y'all is gone from Proper Eats! You guys will just have to head out here to Oregon for the full Shalom Y'all experience! Their full restaurant is AWESOME!
Lol! It might make a comeback..just saying! ❤️ I can only imagine a Shalom Y’all full-service restaurant! Instanbul Mediterranean in the Grand Bazaar shops in front of the Horseshoe is a really good option if you guys haven’t tried it yet!
Hi guys. Sorry to hear that you guys had to go through delays with check in at the Vdara. We had similar issues waiting for our room on day of checking in as well. Nonetheless the view from our suite was spectacular. Crazy to know we were on the same floor. It was a pleasure meeting you both. Looking forward to your next episodes. So much fun watching you both. Thank you for another great vlog!😊
Hey, Violet! ❤️ It was so awesome bumping into you guys too! Yes, the views definitely make up for those check-in issues! Next time we’re in Vegas together we have to grab a drink with y’all!
Venetian to MGM properties.. movin on down in terms of service. We stayed at Cosmo during Father's Day weekend. Our 1bedrm Terrace room did not have fridge. MGM really downgrading their hotels.😢 😢
Oh man we’re sorry to hear that! Hopefully they compensated you guys while there for the inconvenience. Cosmo rooms are in need of a refresh, we’ll see how MGM handles it!
Hi David and Sonia … it is very nice to finally meet you guys in person. Thank you for including us on your video. Try to visit Northern California casino also. Bay Area will be waiting for you guys. ❤❤❤😊😊-Kathleen and Ivan
Hey, Kathleen and Ivan ❤️ We definitely want to try other casinos/resorts around the country and would love to check out Northern California one day! We may need your advice and restaurants to try to! Thank you both for saying hi at the Cosmo!
Another great vlog, guys. Din Tai Fung is one of our favorites. We have not made it the last couple trips. Will be going for our August trip. Sorry Sonia, long hair for Dave.
Funny, I’m from Hawaii and while your son was in Hawaii, we made a stop in Vegas before we went to see our son in Lackland AFB . I believe our last full day in Vegas was your first day there . I commented on your IG post about hoping you have better luck than we did. I would’ve totally said HI if we ran into you folks. Next time 😊
Thats too funny! You guys flew to San Antonio (Lackland AFB) too? Such a small world! We did have some luck on the slots this trip😉 and you will see that soon! Hope to see you in Vegas too one day!
Hey guys, thanks for sharing your time with the rest of us. Hubby and I were there in May and tried the pistachio martini for the first time with Frenchie and it was everything you made it out to be! Important info about picking up the loose tickets at a casino, I would advise not doing that. Nevada law says that unclaimed monies like those small tickets belong to the casino and you can get banned from a casino if security catches you doing that. Would hate to see you have a bad experience for something that seems so minimal, Google it. Looking forward to getting more ideas to try on our next trip!
OMG you’re famous! Can I get a selfie with you guys?! I died laughing when Sonia showed her pennies floor Tito’s 😂. Beautiful room view! Glad you’re out of that death trap staircase room uninjured!
Wow that full screen of mansions - so fun!! Don’s Prime looks great, we want those potatoes and we especially want one of those drink carts in our house :) 💕🥂
Team short hair.🤜🤛 And it's not like it's really short. Great vlog, guys! DTF is a must for each trip. Quality, freshness, and value. But why did you eat out? Sonia could have cooked dinner with that kitchen. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Just kidding.
Din Tai Fung is one of my favorite restaurants in Vegas too. I’ve never found a better Pork Xao Long Bao anywhere. And 100% on the chocolate dumplings. Maybe we should have lunch there together in November. Awesome vlog as always 😊
Those mimosas were the crispiest! 🥂 We are Team Long Hair, but Dave looks great both long and short obviously 😂. Din Tai Fung is always a favourite - this was such a great video, we loved watching. Thank you for sharing 💕❤️
Team long hair! I'm guessing the showgirls that wanted a pic with him also love his long locks! Probably not a look for a middle age guy, but Sonia may be a little wee bit jealous :o) of his good looks! Looking forward to the next vid! Peace, out,....forgot to say, you should blur out the faces of the people you inadvertently video while you're playing slots-- that's the primary reason casinos don't let vloggers film; everyone is entitled to their privacy in a casino and you guys just violated someone's privacy.....just saying, you guys should know and do better than that :o)
I REALLY Enjoyed your video as always! Love Vdara! Long hair for Dave definitely, seems to enhance his fun personality and makes him look younger. Sonia ny husband likes collecting the little tickets people leave behind too!
