| - 4.5 stars, but if I have to choose four or five, they deserve the benefit of the doubt.
After a rocking party at Mamie P.'s, and far too little sleep, we decided to hit up Bar + Bistro and put their Hangover Brunch to the test. Right in the middle of the downtown Las Vegas art district, the brick building housing B + B is bursting with character. It is the perfect backdrop to serve their delicious, unique and artfully prepared food.
The breakfast selection was limited, but it was rounded out with a great selection of Spanish tapas. I had the Cangrejo Benedict Mofongo. It was amazing! The serving was on the small side, but, oh man, did they pack in the flavor. I tasted he pancakes as well. They were delicious, but the presentation left a bit to be desired. Three pancakes slapped on a barren plate was not doing it for me, but once I took a bite of the sweet, crispy (yes...crispy!) goodness, I forgave the lack of effort to make the plate look pretty. If you end up ordering the pancakes, add some bacon to cut the sweetness of the dish and pretty up the plate a bit.
On top of the fact that you are getting to enjoy delicious food, in a fun, hip area of Vegas, you are also treated to an awesome display of artwork by local artists. Many of the pieces are available for purchase.
If you are in the area on a weekend, you must stop by B + B and indulge in the Hangover Brunch. While you are at it, support a local artist by taking one of their pieces home to adorn your pad. Then you will forever have a reminder of the goodness that is Bar + Bistro.
