| - Having stayed at the Palazzo, and after a few nights out late at XS and Marquee, being able to come back to the resort, and having the Grand Lux Cafe open at 6am was a god-send. I think the only bad thing is that it closes from 2am-6am daily, but for me, heading back to my room each morning around 6am, it was perfect.
I am well aware they have the $18.95 breakfast buffet, but as far as myself, none of the food on their buffet appeals to me, and so both the mornings I decided to get a late night cap, I went for the Chicken & Waffles combo one morning, and the next morning I went for the Caramel Banana-Nut French Toast.
I am from LA, so I am spoiled by the original Roscoe's as far as Chicken & Waffles. I prefer my chicken with bone, not boneless tenders; and that's what you get here at the Grand Lux Cafe-- Chicken tenders & Waffles. Granted, at 6am, after a long night of drinking and partying, anything warm/hot will do you good, but like I said, I was expecting an actual piece of chicken breast and a wing, or something of the sort. The chicken was alright, and the waffle was great.
The second time I visited the Grand Lux, I ordered the Caramel Banana-Nut French Toast. Man, I don't know their toast recipe, but boy was it finger lickin' good! The portions, as has been mentioned on here, are HUGE! So huge that I wasn't able to finish either of the breakfast items I ordered, but especially not the French Toast. This is some super large and thick toast, not like your home-made variety. I must say, the toast, with the caramel and the nuts made this by far one of the best meals I had in my five day trip to Las Vegas.
This was my first time staying at the Palazzo, and thus the first time I ever bothered with the Grand Lux. I've already booked at the Palazzo again for September, and already know what I'll be ordering when I'm back!
