| - After spending a lot of time at the Golden Nugget's Mexican restaurant, we were in the mood for something a little bit different, so we soon found ourselves seated at the hotel's lone Asian eatery.
Lillie's offers a Hibachi Grill and that was probably what we should've done, but none of us were incredibly hungry, so we instead opted for the regular menu.
We started with an order of the Spring Rolls ("Crisp Vegetable Spring Rolls, Plum Sauce"). These were quite edible and the plum sauce was good, although there was nothing about the dish that screamed out deliciousness (ie they tasted pretty generic).
My appetite was especially minimal, so I decided to forego the mains and instead ordered an appetizer as my meal. I went with the Beef Lettuce Wraps ("Romaine Lettuce Leaves, Minced Beef, Peanuts, Scallions, Crunchy Rice Noodles").
I'll preface this by saying I misread the item and was expecting something closer to a salad roll, but that's on me. What I got was a decent yet completely unspectacular lettuce wrap. The filling was all perfectly fine although completely tasteless, with the Minced Beef seemingly cooked without any spices or even salt.
(To be fair, I did try one of my dining companion's dishes, the General Tso's Chicken, and that seemed a lot better and quite flavorful.)
