| - Would I eat here again? Most definitely. Would I make a special trip to eat here? No. However, that is contingent on breakfast cereal cravings, see below. (Also, I must confess a bias for Chef Simon just because I really don't care for Cat Cora, no flames please!)
So after seeing KGB featured on some food show for their waffle fry nachos my boyfriend mentioned that he would like to try them out. After passing through the smoke filled casino (has Harrah's always been that smokey or am I getting old?) we were greeted by the cutest hostess I have seen to date. I have to say I really did like the "Russian" uniform with the hot pants and fishnet stockings. She seated us and asked us if we were on vacation and how we had heard of them. Kudos for pleasant demeanor. The chefs in the kitchen were also wearing green "Russian" uniforms and there were provocatively dressed comic book drawings on the walls. And it is amusing to see Stoli chillin' in giant blocks of ice.
Being the little piglet I am, I had the milkshake trio. The captain crunch milkshake was the bomb! My bf had a sip and said to me, "You have to figure out how to make that at home." It was like a childhood dream come true. Memories of letting cereal get soggy, then slurping up the sweetened milk, ah, happiness. Moving on, the strawberry was very good but I kind of gave up drinking it because I couldn't get it through the straw. I mean, it IS a drink. The chunks of fresh strawberries were so big it was more like a fruit smoothie. Liquefy that sucker. Also I noticed my love for chocolate seems to be waning as I get older. The chocolate malt milkshake was good. Way chocolate. Way chocolate enough that I couldn't finish the little glass it came in. But still good. Certainly a go for lovers of the cacao bean.
As for the waffle fry nachos, I would really really really recommend this as an appetizer for a table of four. Especially if everyone plans on having an entree. The plate came out heaped a good half foot tall. The waffle fries were covered in oozing melted cheese. After attacking it from the side I managed to dig into the creamy cheese and pulled pork in the middle (yes, I deftly avoided the salsa and slices of jalapeno). So good, so rich, so taking home about three quarters of it. Our (huge) burgers arrived and we began to nosh on those as well. I had the BBQ Bacon Burger and my boyfriend had the Double Cheeseburger. My burger was good, I really liked the onion bun. I think they cooked it a little closer to medium rare then the medium I had asked for. The bacon was adequate and the fries were tasty. However, I think I will stick to Five Guys. My bf's was a perfect medium. He commented that it was good, but he would probably have liked it better if he had just built his own.
I think there were only two things I was irked at the entire meal. One was all the food pretty much arrived at the same time. The app was brought then the entrees arrived like three minutes later. The second thing is wiggle room. The plates are tiny. I know that presentation goes a long way but I would like to be able to cut my burger in half and not worry about my fries falling off my plate. I think if I were to go back I would mostly likely sample things other than burgers on their menu. Things like fried mac and cheese . . .
