What's great about living in Vegas is that not only can you try under-the-radar places away from the Strip, you can also find places that are underneath the under-the-radar places. Welcome to the Bougainvillea Cafe inside the Terrible's Casino. I've always wanted to check this place out. After seeing the sign outside for the 2.99 special I decided to come inside. The restaurant itself reminded me of a Cracker Barrel, kind of eerily homely. After I sat down and ordered my meal it must have taken them around 5 minutes to cook it. I was kind of scared. Fortunately, everything was pretty good.
The pancakes were soft, but not too soft, and was not too sweet but just sweet enough. The whipped butter that came with it was 100% butter and spread very easily.
The bacon was warm and crispy, and not greasy at all.
The only gripe I can think of is that the eggs were not quite cooked specifically to my order... but I came to expect that. (After living in Vegas for quite some time now, I have resigned myself to the fact that as long as i'm paying less than 10 dollars for breakfast, any time I order an over-medium fried egg, it will 99/100, come out over-soft)
Suprisingly good find!
