3/7/08 breakfast at the Vegas airport

When I travel, I always try to eat, shop, experience places taht I can't find in any other city. Why go to Atlanta or Santa Fe to eat at Olive Garden? Olive Garden is a fabulous restaurant but if I can eat at one at home, why did I bother to travel? So that's my motto.

Who would've guessed that in the Las Vegas airport we would find such a "local" place? You can't find Prickly Pear Cactus in many places in the US much less a restaurant named after the plant. The decor was very southwest and the food was delicious. We'd been up since 5 and it was now close to 10 and we were just eating breakfast, so we were hungry, but that just made the food more delicious.
