I might be road tripping to Vegas for a day, either Oct 22 or 23, and wondered if anyone might be interested in a Lotus of Siam offline, since I’ve (GASP!) never been there!!
It appears they are now open only for dinner, is that correct? if so, I’d have to make it at the earliest possible timeframe (5:30) because I will most likely not be staying overnight…
I might be available for this; would like to meet some Berserkers in person. LOS did have the lunch buffet; not sure if they still do; have not been back since Bank left. One advantage to going in the daylight is that there is less likelihood of getting caught in a gang shootout in the parking lot. There have been some.
Hahaha. I remember the first time I took my wife there. When we pulled into the parking lot she said, “Where are you taking me!” And the tone told me she meant “Where in the f*ck are you taking me!”
Looks like we’re set for the 22nd at 12:30 (they have lunch, just not buffet, which apparently is a very, very good thing) - Joe Hauck is setting up the reservation, so let us know if you can make it
Todd: I’m going to have to bail, too; have to be at work that day; was looking forward to finally meeting some Berserkers in person. To soften the blow, I went to Chada last night and treated myself to a Donnhoff kabinett and ZH gewurtz!
I was at LOS a while ago and I couldn’t find a single waiter I knew. I asked to speak to the manager and told him I’d never been charged corkage going back nearly 15 years to when LOS was relatively unknown. I pointed out photos on the wall of our offlines there. He still charged me $25. The food is still great, and I continue to eat there, but I order beer now. I hope Joe has some juice, mine’s squeezed out.
Then let’s go elsewhere! I only suggested LoS because I’ve never been there, but it doesn’t sound like it’s the same restaurant it was in the old days anyway, so let’s change the venue if needed
