I strongly disagree to Las Vegas being labeled as "THE" restaurant capital of the world. Have you ever visited San Francisco, New York, Chicago or New Orleans? Perhaps LV does indeed have some wonderful restaurants, many outposts of their famous NY or SF originals.</font>
Yes, I've been to (and eaten at, natch) SF, NY, Chitown, and the Big Easy. Of those four, NO was the best hands down. But you know what else? Even that didn't compare to the best meal I've ever had...in Las Vegas. Twas about 3 years ago at the Paris Eiffel Tower Restaurant. Two words: "Dover Sole." Absolute perfection. Pricey, but worth it (about $50/entree as I recall). Of course, nothing else in Vegas compared to it. We ate at Le Cirque at the Bellagio the next night and were disappointed (although to be fair, perhaps it was merely a letdown in comparison the the previous night's fare). Take it for what it's worth...
