I stopped in to Caesar's Palace for a quick lunch on a recent trip to LV and found Celebrity Chef Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill to be a pretty decent spot to grab a bite. I had the spicy chicken and sweet potato hash and could only complain about the lack of crispy crustiness that usually makes hash so delightful. As far as the flavor was concerned it was really very enjoyable. A deft balance of sweet and savory and heat that went very nicely with the blue and yellow corn jalapeno muffin from the bread basket that comes with every meal. The hash is appropriately plated with two perfectly poached eggs sitting on top of the hash, contributing their yolky goodness to the enterprise.
A Hornitos margarita rounded out the meal and while it might have been slightly heavy on the sweet and sour it was otherwise sufficiently slurp-worthy. It packed the requisite punch and precipitated a boozy smile on my face as I and my arched eyebrow stumbled out into Caesar's 24-hour nonstop cabaret of madcap money-letting bacchanalia.
Res ipsa loquitor, indeed.
