| - Not even when it was the Aladdin casino, we rarely came here for the casino. (You can tell when it's crowded when you have a hard time finding parking in the multi-level parking garage. As always with the Strip and Las Vegas, Free Parking.) The best thing about this casino is the Miracle Mile shops: Ben & Jerry's, Todai, Blondie's, Lobster ME, Auntie Anne's, Cheeseburger. Yes, we've tried all those places. Some of the stores are: Ann Taylor LOFT, Gap, Bath & Body Works, The Body Shop, Sephora, Urban Outfitters, Crocs, H & M, The Walking Company, ABC stores, Tommy Bahama. And you guessed it, we've been to all these stores, too. The directory is pretty vast. I'm sure I'd run out of letters if I listed them all. (Gone are the days when Hilo Hattie once had a store here.) There is also a couple showrooms (one is used for "So You Think You Can Dance" Vegas Week- we just happened to come here this past weekend to try Lobster Me (delicious, check out my review on it) and I saw Tyce Diorio and Lil' C- I should've asked to snap a pictured with these guys). We enjoy coming here when we want to walk around inside a shopping center especially if the weather is bad outside or if we've had a big meal. There's always a good crowd here, because there are lots of stores and restaurants here.
Also in the casino are PF Chang's and Pink's (famous hot dog place in LA). This used to be the Aladdin, and the ownership changed, thus, so did the theme. My husband says that too many casinos are going "Yuppie." As for the rest of the casino, I can't really comment on it, since we go straight into Miracle Mile.
