Supermarket Discounts are getting harder to do now

Back in the old days……..(not so long ago)…..You only needed your shoppers card to get your supermarket discount sale items.

Besides using your shopper’s card…….several years back they added an annoying digital add on to get discounted sale prices.

Now there is another new choice for discounts.

Now we suffer with Delivery or Drive up and go prices.

UGH!!!!!

And That’s The Forking Truth

District Deli & Coffee Las Vegas NV – Get a Sandwich – Worth a Try!

District Deli & Coffee is located in a not too pretty part of downtown Las Vegas Nevada. They offer breakfast sandwiches, Monzu Bread toasts, a variety of sandwiches, chef salads, deli sides, pastries, coffees, smoothies, and teas. They have a few indoor tables and a few outdoor tables. It’s casual. You order and pay at the counter.

Sandwiches are the way to go here but I ordered the Panzanella Salad with Smoked Salmon because I don’t come across them often. (fresh mozzarella, toasted garlic focaccia, cherry tomatoes, arugula, red onion)

It’s a bit of a fail because the croutons are hard as rocks and Panzanella is suppose to be bread salad……..Soaked bread like in tomatoes and vegetables…..Not always but often oil, vinegar, basil…….These croutons stayed so hard that they couldn’t be penetrated with a fork. I’d go back but would have to go with a sandwich next time.

My husband had a sandwich and also took out a sandwich for latter. The sandwiches actually are quite good. Below is the Mortadella Sandwich (Pecorino Romano, arugula, Monzu Focaccia with Caponata) and house made chips.

He also took out a Italian Sandwich (fennel salami, capicola, mortadella, provolone, lettuce, tomato, red onion, pepperoncini, herbed vinegar, pickled pepper spread, sesame roll)

Sandwiches are the way to go here.

Lunch At Delmonico Steakhouse Las Vegas NV – Gumbo & Banana Cream Pie are always a Hit!

Delmonico Steakhouse in Las Vegas Nevada is located in the Venetian Hotel/Casino on The Las Vegas Strip. This restaurant is owned by Multi Award and James Beard Award Wining Celebrity Chef, Restauranteur, Television Personality, Cookbook Author and MORE Emeril Lagasse.

This Steakhouse is open at lunch time and does offer a lunch menu. At the time of my visit they were offering a three course Prix Price Menu for $50. The Lunch Menu offers starters like gumbo, salads, and Emeril’s New Orleans’s Barbecue Shrimp. Lunch Entrees are things like a tenderloin salad or sandwich, a petite filet, fried chicken, king salmon, smash cheeseburger, and spinach spaghetti. They also offer various side dishes, desserts, and a section of Steakhouse Selections.

It’s very formal and rich looking. it’s filled with comfortable seating and interesting light fixtures.

They start you off with airy popovers and soft butter.

At any of the Emeril Restaurants my husband ALWAYS gets the gumbo and says that it is always very good.

On the lunch menu is a $26. Smashburger (price subject to change) that is very large and is served on HOUSE MADE Potato Brioche Bun. The burger is ribeye brisket with trim + wagyu + dry age and lettuce, tomato, red onion, bread and butter pickles, American Cheddar Cheese and Fry Sauce.

I got mine without cheese. I don’t know why but the smashburger without cheese came out much juicier than the burger with cheese………….

On the very ends some of the beef is very crispy but mine is very juicy and flavorful. For me this is two meals because it is very large but my husband ate all of his.

We also shared some truffle parmesan potato chips.

The chips are light and very thin. They are crisp and seem free of oil. They taste good…Cheesy and a bit truffle-ly. They are also a very large portion.

Emeril’s Banana Cream Pie is always amazing. I do think it is one of the best desserts that you can get anywhere in Vegas.

It’s also a very large portion.

The Gumbo and Banana Cream Pie are Always a Hit!
