Only had two meals there. Dinner and breakfast.
Did not try the Mexican joint but the quality of food I had there was great so I'll be trying it in the future.
The Silverton has become my favorite hotel in Vegas. Good rooms, good food, not crowded, and Bass Pro is attached for easy bullet purchasing power. Can't think of to much else you need.

Also it's easy to get the hell out of Dodge when the time comes, and there's a T/A right across the street.

I will have to remember that for next time. We went to BP anyway, so we could have stayed there. We also like staying off the strip. Most recently at the Embassy Suites, because it is business like and the suites are large.

If you call early you can get a room for 50 bucks. Call late it's 75.
Not bad for all the goodness that comes with it.

We went to Mandalay for the Shark Reef aquarium. Spent $18@ and it was a ripoff IMO. The FREE aquarium at Bass Pro was better.



Do you guys watch this show?


Pardon the damn cell phone pics. I hate those things!!!

Were you actually contaminated, or was that a drill?

Good to see you posting Trey

I was actually contaminated.

They seized my boots and burned them. So they gave me HAZMAT booties.
