| - Crab legs! The only f'n reason why I'd eat at the pig trough. Especially since the staff at most of these buffets seem to be a slight notch above TSA/Airport security in regards to service.
I wanted to go to Boiling Crab, but I didn't want to put up with the huge wait. Instead, I held off till I took my trip to Vegas to get a chance to gorge myself with the all-you-can-stuff-your-pig-fat-face-fat-ass-stretchy-pants-self buffet.
I was about to hit up the Seafood buffet at the Rio, but since we were staying at the Palaaaazzo (say it in a Mario and Luigi Italian accent) across the way, I decided on the Wynn instead. Plus, imagine all the exercise involved going from the Palazzo to the Rio.... I'm out of breath writing about it. So I decided on the Wynn instead, and for $46 U.S. dollars I got to eat Alaskan King crab that was conveniently split into two (very smart on the managements part because hopefully it cuts down on waste). Also most patrons will have stubby butter coated pig like stubs that would make it difficult to efficiently crack each crab leg to extract the meat.
The crab was alright, and somehow I got sick of it. Possibly because I was trying to eat 3lbs to "get my money's worth", so I decided to try out the rest of the food because I assumed that the Wynn was going to be better than the Bellagio buffet, but it's almost identical. Comparing the two directly, I'd probably go for the Bellagio buffet over the Wynn because it seems as though they do some things a little better than the Wynn (desserts and selection).
The gripes I have - FYI, I always have them, that's why it's a joy eating with me:
1. Seriously why is it always steamed crab or steamed shrimp, and why only f'n cocktail sauce and butter!??!
2. The prime rib sucked. Crappy, tough, and dry. Au jus couldn't save it.
3. Every meat here was overcooked, and spent a little too much time under the heat lamp.
4. Can't they mix-up the menu a little?? Does it have to be along the same lines as every other buffet on the strip??
5. The lobster bisque was the most rancid nastiest bisque I've ever had. I hate to waste, but this was destined for the trash.
6. One other gripe in general that I have: I can't stand waste, and people waste at buffets because they forget that chicken, beef, fish, etc does come from a living animal. I think if you had to slaughter an animal, you'd be less prone to waste food.
I don't normally eat at the hotels, and instead I venture off the strip for most of my meals which isn't necessarily better, but with the type of food I had at the Wynn, I'd rather spend my time on Spring Mountain Rd..... with the locals in their stretchy pants.
