Last month I was in Las Vegas and had several outstanding meals. Though something can be said for finding the $4.99 Prime Rib dinner specials or $0.99 hot dogs, I highly encourage everyone to set aside a little of your vacation budget and splurge on at least one fancy meal. They do have world-class dining in almost every hotel after all. My friend and I decided that the MGM Grand was our destination of choice, and we ended up at Fiamma Trattoria. It was apparent from the start that the service was going to be outstanding. Though the restaurant was full, our waiter took his time explaining the specials and joked around with us. Bread and olive oil were brought over immediately, and we ordered cocktails and sparkling water.
We each ordered appetizers, or antipasti. She raved about her choice of Mozzarella, which included Mozzarella Di Buffala (freshly flown-in) tossed with tomatoes and fresh basil. I had the daily special; a dish made with lobster and scallops in a cream sauce topped with a generous portion of Alba white truffles. Honestly, life does not get much better than that.
