The House of Blues Gospel Brunch's stage was set and so were the tables. We sat family style at long tables for about 30. Our seats were close.. table 6 seats 5 and 6. The food was great, sausages, bacon, biscuits and gravy, red beans and rice, shrimp, tortellini and this fucking peach cobbler that almost made my head pop off. yum. we sat next this rambunctious couple with champagne making ours into a mimosa brunch! ya! I'm pretty sure we saw a special show. The singer/reverend guy proposed to his girlfriend after he got all the birthday and anniversary people up on stage.
After Brunch, we took the tram thing to Excaliber and walked over to NYNY and over to MGM. We wandered in a bit and the signs were clear to buy tix for the Crazy Horse show that night. We got a 10% MGM discount and then we wandered up the strip a bit more.. the M&M store was WAY too crowded to check out and we really have no need for anything other than fun and relaxation... I donated $100 to a BJ table and $100 to the slots that day, but I got it back that night at MGM before the Crazy Horse show..
Dinner: Tram to Mirage : Samba at Mirage for Brazilian Rodizio style. They had this garlic sauce possibly made of cilantro, garlic, red chiles, oil and somethine acidic.. lemon or vinegar or something yummy!
Fried plantains, black beans n rice, glazed carrots, bread and salad with a cream sauce, hearts of palm, feta, and i don't remember whatelse..accompanied the sausage, chicken, bacon wrapped turkey, strip steak, sirloin and pork and pineapples:) yum.
Cabbed it to MGM
Crazy Horse
table 108, about 6 feet from the stage, if that. it was crazyamazing the lights shone on the girls during the scenes make it even more amazing. it is almost surreal and very sensual! Be careful about ordering a bottle of water though.. they don't tell you upfront you can get tap water... so $7 later we had a bottle of Fiji.. The "Teasing" and the mandancers were my favorite. Somehow I left the booklet they gave us in our room, but it was a memorable show.
