Sometimes the best way to see the Strip is to just sit back, ride along, and soak it all in. Would you try Cartzilla on your next Vegas trip?

Vegas is always about the food. From Martha Stewart’s cozy comfort dishes at The Bedford to handmade dumplings at Din Tai Fung, this trip did not disappoint. Which would you try first?

#travelreels #vegasreels #vegasfood #vegasfoodie

Vanderpump Paris might just be the most glamorous dinner spot in Vegas. ✨

We tried:
🦐 Butter Prawns
🧅 French Onion Mac & Cheese
🍩 Crème Brûlée Beignets
🍸 Two incredible cocktails

Lisa Vanderpump does it again with the atmosphere, presentation, and flavor. This one is a must if you’re on the Strip. Would you go for the prawns or the beignets first?

📍 Vanderpump Paris, Las Vegas

Dinner at Javier’s at Aria = the perfect choice tonight. ✨

We wanted to stay close to the hotel and use up some MGM credits, and it couldn’t have been better.

🍹 Mango margarita
🧀 Queso fundido + guac
🌽 Street corn + frijoles
🌮 Chicken quesadilla
🍨 Fried ice cream (the star of the night!)

It’s been on our list for a while and absolutely lived up to the hype. Would you try it?

Somewhere over the rainbow… 🌈✨

Seeing The Wizard of Oz inside the Sphere in Las Vegas was pure magic. Not a cheap ticket, but absolutely worth the splurge. The visuals were immersive, the nostalgia hit hard, and this Kansas girl felt right at home. 💛👠

⭐️ Such a fun experience and one I’ll never forget. Would you go see a movie here?

Din Tai Fung is always a non-negotiable stop when we’re near Aria. 🥟✨

This time: chicken + pork Xiao long bao, fried rice, string beans, mango shave ice, and yes 🤤 chocolate Xiao long bao for dessert. 🍫

We even ate at one of their London locations by accident before we knew how special it was. It’s never let us down.

Would you go for the soup dumplings or dessert dumplings first?
