Wow, the Venetian was beautiful! This is inside the hotel:
It was mocked up to look like you were actually walking down the streets of Venice. Though the water was a little cleaner here, I assume. And, like, all the shops were high end jewelry and fashion shops, as opposed to, I dunno, bakeries, or St. Mark's Basilica or something. But yea, it was neat.
They even had some entertainment, some Venetian music (or a Stevie Nicks cover, I couldn't tell).
The Taqueria Cañonita had some great Mexican food. Yea, the scene by the waterfront was Italian, but I love Mexican food. Pam got the Pollo Con Mole Poblano - half roasted chicken, white rice, and jicama salad. I got the Zacatecas Chile Relleno - poblano chile stuffed with Mexican cheeses, dried fruits, almonds, guajillo sauce, jicama orange salad and seasonal vegetables. Yes, I copy and pasted from the Restaurant Week menus online.
I'm eating too much. My stomach is stretched to its limits.
Now I'm getting jealous!
ReplyDeleteThat was also the best margarita (strawberry) I've ever had. Hands down.
