Filed under Reviews

I’ve heard a lot of buzz about the spice market buffet since it opened in the Aladdin. This buffet always seems to end up rated in the top ten buffets in Vegas and I’ve even seen it rated as #1 from time to time. Since my sis was staying at Planet Hollywood (formerly the Aladdin) [...]

Some of you ladies who don’t live here in Sin City may not know about Lake Las Vegas in Henderson Nevada. If you’ve ever wanted to take a little drive (about 30 minutes from the strip) and have a nice lunch or cocktails away from the hustle & bustle of the strip Lake Las Vegas [...]

Menu Mania

Filed under The Lip Glossary

Ladies: remember when menus were descriptive but to the point? I recently read an article about irritating menu adjectives and it resonated with me in a big way. Restaurants are now finding the need to “sell” us on how unique each menu item is and they are using crazy descriptive terms to do so. This [...]

I’ve been reading lately about attractions or activities to do in Las Vegas that even I didn’t know about and I’ve been coming here and/or living here since 1989. Some of this stuff is either cheap or free and others are a little pricey, but the point is I don’t think some of these attractions [...]

I recently had the chance to sit down and chat with one of my favorite ladies, Trina Donovan, my executive casino host of 13 years at the Bellagio. Since Trina has been a host for over 20 years, I thought she could advise us on how to take some of the mystery out of properly [...]

Filed under The Lip Glossary

I recently began Twittering with Pilar Ellis– the marketing manager at the Trump International Hotel here in Las Vegas. She suggested that I come to take a tour of the resort as she noticed it was not reviewed on our Ladies Love Las Vegas site. Initially, I had not intended to list non-casino properties on [...]

Ladies, this is a recipe that I made up from combining a few ideas. The first time I baked them, I sent some all over the neighborhood and they got rave reviews. The secret is the spices in the frosting. You can bake any kind of your favorite chocolate cookies as a base. I used [...]
