Nob Hill is a great restaurant in MGM (don't remember how close that is to Mandalay). Get the Veal Chop. I also went to Craft in MGM, but thought it was highly over-rated, over-priced and over-trendy.

Yeah, we wanted to avoid the chains. RM looks great. We're trying to stay close to the Mandalay Bay based on the assumption that most people will be drunk by dinner.
Bachelor party?

I'd never heard anything about Craft being well-rated or trendy when I went, and I didn't have to pay. I was very impressed by the quality of the steak, salads, sides, wine list, service and decor. And fuck, it was a great dinner, paid for by my wife's dad. And I'd had a great day playing Pai Gow. So this is why reasonable people may disagree.

However speaking of gambling, I can't believe that on Saturday's NFL games I went 2-0 and lost my ass. Only me. How could the Seahawks and Redskins not even combine for 34 points? I was sure the Seahawks would score that many on their own. I know the answer -- Shaun Alexander's fumble and subsequent injury. But Christ.

Oh, and then any Pats fans can blame me for the loss; I switched my bet mid-game from Denver to NE. You're all very welcome.

Too easy. Must. Resist. Swinging. At. It.

A combination STP/Wonk/Whiff. Brilliant.

What's most troubling is he thinks sushi has a smell. Perhaps Flower needs to upgrade the hygiene level of his dates?

Craft is allright, but nothing special. Its just a fucking steak joint.

I disagree about the trendy bit. Didn't seem very trendy. BWTFDIK, right?

As hard as you tried, you just couldn't reach the height of absurdity of this:
