Diners have to wear a hospital gown over their clothes. This is in Vegas, on Fremont Street, downtown. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Compo 10,328 Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 Where did you say that 'Grill' was Kath , and is there a bus from Winsford ? I'll share a taxi with you! There used to be a pub in Darwen, Lancs. that had a "Greedy Pig" grill. If you cleared the plate you got a voucher from the bar. Next time you went in you got extra. This continued until you could not clear the plate and all at standard grill price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mick2me 3,033 Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 Some great pictures from all Poohbear you are naughty! What hotel on Freemont street Kath, what was it like? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
katyjay 5,091 Posted May 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 The Fitzgerald's hotel, you can just see a bit of the name on the Elvis photo. It was nothing to write home about, terrible bed, and a very noisy hotel. Wouldn't recommend staying downtown again unless you are a party animal! Should have stayed at the Gold Coast.

mick2me 3,033 Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 The Gold Coast is one of Vegas's best kept secrets. Though I have always fancied staying at the Plaza on Freemont. Dunno about the prices or reviews? I dont think you can get better value than the GC at the moment. and the food was very good IMO. Mind you with that Seafood Buffet I am easily pleased Quote Link to post Share on other sites
