I have only been to Vegas twice in my life, once for a conference and once to head out to Death Valley.

Regardless, OP your trip report is very enjoyable to read.
Hi kmersh how have you been? It's a pleasure to have you on my TRs. Although I have never been there despite living 30 or so minutes away, I have heard that The Breaker's Sunday Brunch Buffet is phenomenal, albeit very pricey! My dear family friend says that their lamb chops are to die for. You are probably right I think that the Bacchanal Buffet is equally as delicious and with just as many choices and as you pointed out, a price a little less than half of The Breakers, it is definitely a good deal!

I hope you get to go to Vegas many more times as I feel twice isn't enough, especially because with the conference, you likely did not get to see much of Vegas's treasures. I have not been to Death Valley yet how did you like it? I hear it is incredible!

Thank you so much for your kind words kmersh I always love having you as a loyal reader!

ngl I have sticker shock about a $150 buffet. I’m looking at the website and see that there are many dining choices. I don’t know Florida very much and last went in 1999 for a trade show in Orlando. Oh and a 2006 Mia connection.
Wow gaobest I had no idea you had not been into Las Vegas in so long! I hope that one day, you and your Mother get to go to Vegas together it would be amazing! I don't blame you for having sticker shock about a $150 buffet although the Breakers has some pricey and ultra pricey items, like lobsters, caviar, and more and it is in a really fancy hotel in one of the wealthiest places in the United States. Still, I don't think I could drop $150 on a buffet, especially when The Bacchanal at half of the price is just as good. The Breakers does have some fab dining options though, including their famous Sunday Brunch. That's a shame I do hope you get to come to Florida again sometime you will love it here

Thank you so much Cards1234! Hope you are having a wonderful day! Not to worry there is more to report but I have been so busy with work that I haven't even had time to work on it. Hopefully, I will have a chance to add more installments soon. An honor to have you onboard Cards1234!
