Eight Turn Crepe recently opened in North Las Vegas Nevada. They are a small casual restaurant that offers Japanese style rice crepes stuffed sweet or savory. They also offer Gelato, coffees, bubble tea, and smoothies.

You order and pay at the counter.

Someone calls your name when your order is ready.

I tried a Chicken Thai Crepe (grilled chicken, greens, cucumbers, carrots, peanuts, sesame seeds and Spicy Cilantro Thai Sauce. My husband tried the Philly Cheesesteak Crepe (Philly Steak, roasted peppers & onions, cheddar cheese, and chipotle aioli sauce (left off by request)).

I try my Chicken Thai Crepe.

The rice crepe is very good but this is FORKING HARD to eat without a fork and knife and plate. I’m dropping stuff all over the place. The chicken is moist but also is kinda spongy……It’s tasty but doesn’t remind me of Thai food…..I’ll go with something different next time.

The Philly Steak Crepe is closer to what it is suppose to be.

Steak, cheese, peppers, and onions…….It’s good but is a lot lighter than a real cheese steak with a lot less filling…..

For us this is our closest gelato shop so we stopped here already three times for gelato.

So far we tried single scoops.

Strawberry

Good …………..but not comparable to the AMAZING strawberry gelato from Fabio On Fire from Peoria AZ. But The FORKING Truth is that NOBODY’s anywhere can compare to Fabio’s.

Pistachio

Creamy and rich like ice cream. Maybe the freshest plumpest pistachios I ever had anywhere in a dessert but the ice cream taste more like almond than pistachio.

chocolate

A nice deep chocolate flavor

banana

Rich and creamy with a natural banana flavor

Leticia’s Cocina & Cantina is a Mexican Restaurant and Bar located in the Santa Fe Station Casino/Hotel in North/West Las Vegas Nevada.

Here’s the cantina.

And here’s the main dining room.

Whatever you order they start you off with complimentary chips, salsa, and chorizo bean dip.

For dinner I tried the Pescado Al Mojo De Ajo. This came with poblano rice casserole and a mixed green salad.

I’ll be honest I mean tell The FORKING Truth. This fish is just ok……tonight……Only one piece tasted fishy…..maybe I just got some of the bloodline?……..But the sauce is FORKING AMAZING! OMG it’s FORKING SCRUMPTIOUS! It’s garlic-ee…It’s citrus-ee…it’s also spicy…It’s so YUM I could drink it…..That poblano white rice casserole in the upper right corner is also super yummy delicious! Then there also is a generously sized salad on the side and also tortillas (corn or flour) This seemed like a very large platter too. I couldn’t eat it all. Next time I’ll make sure to split it in half.

My husband got the Steak Ranchero.

It tastes a whole lot better than it looks. It’s a bowl of carne asada, caramelized onions, poblano strips, jalapeños, corn wheels, ranchero sauce and tortillas on the side…..I do have to say that the carne asada wasn’t as tender as I like it to be but was flavored far better than from most places that I have been to……It’s flavored really very well.

I Thai Kitchen is a casual Thai and Asian Restaurant located in North/West Las Vegas Nevada.

We started out by sharing the pot stickers.

Here the dumplings seem house made and are fried crispy. They are stuffed with moist nicely seasoned white meat chicken. On the side is a spicy soy based sauce that is tasty.

I tried the green curry salmon with heat level 6 out of ten.

I received an ENORMOUS Bowl of green curry sauce embellished with eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, bamboo shouts and fried salmon cubes with white rice on the side. This is enough for THREE people………….. The flavors are delicious. The heat level is off…..This is spicier than a number 6….This is as spicy or maybe spicier than my husband’s #8. The salmon is different….fried in cubes…..It’s not bad but what you’d expect from a Thai Restaurant. I’d go with chicken next time.

My husband ordered the Chicken Pad Kapow (Spicy Basil) #8 out of ten for heat.

It’s good but different. The flavors are great. It’s also nicely infused with basil. As far as I can remember I never had this dish made with ground chicken before…..I have had the hand chopped versions but never ground before.

Portions run LARGE. Prices are reasonable. Sometimes the food runs spicier.

I Thai Kitchen is Worth a Try!

Saginaw’s Deli is a Michigan-Jewish-Style Deli with a location in the Circa Hotel/Casino in Las Vegas Nevada. It’s very casual here. You order and pay at the counter. You grab a number and seat yourself.

Someone runs out your order when it is ready. The Las Vegas location is open 24 hours a day seven days a week and also serves breakfast at any hour.

Several Saginaw family photos decorate a wall.

Paul Saginaw. also is the co-founder of Zingerman’s Deli. Deli meats come from Greenberg’s in Detroit.

You use the nearby casino restrooms here.

Take a selfie if you like.

We gave Paul’s Onion Tower a try.

The onion rings are breaded nicely and don’t seem oily at all.

The ranch dressing and the Russian dressing are pretty bland. The onion ring doesn’t fit in the dip cups so you have to break your onion ring to get dip on it.

We shared the smoked salmon platter.

This came with an enormous amount of capers. It doesn’t taste bad but the fish is sort of dried out. The bagel is very heavy and dense. They garnished the plate with cucumbers, red onion, and tomato slices.

We also shared the #4 Ben Sherman’s corned beef and pastrami sandwich that came with house made chips and a pickle.

The house made chips are very good……..Good pickle………The sandwich is different than what I’m used to………It’s made with grilled and toasted Pullman bread. The corned beef inside is very good….I think it’s the Russian Dressing that is weird here today because the Russian Dressing here doesn’t taste like Russian Dressing because it’s white and only a little something more than mayonnaise.

The corned beef was good today but I didn’t care for their pastrami. The pastrami was tough today and had flavors that I didn’t care for…But the corned beef was very good.

That was my trip to Saginaw’s Deli at Circa Hotel/Casino – To me it was Hits & Misses your experience may indeed differ.

Farm is an American Restaurant located in Aliante Casino/Hotel in North Las Vegas Nevada. This restaurant offers breakfast, soups, salads, sandwiches, burgers, entrees, and specials.

Inside is a mix of booths, 1/2 booths, and traditional tables.

At times you see a busboy robot zooming by.

My husband tried the special of the month.

It was red beans and rice with andouille sausage, smoked ham, and a cornbread muffin that was very dry. He did say that the red beans and rice was good.

I tried the crispy chicken salad.

It’s a very average salad with cellulose coated shreds of cheese, romaine, a few vegetables, and Luke warm dried out fried chicken slices.

That was my trip to Farm at Aliante Casino/Hotel.

UPDATE NOW CLOSED FOR BUSINESS*******Chinglish Cantonese Wine Bar is located in Las Vegas Nevada.

They offer Cantonese and Hong Kong Style Chinese Foods.

Inside is large and spacious.

With interesting decorations and kitchen action to view.

We started out by sharing the Poh Poh’s chicken and mushroom dumplings.

These dumpling are FORKING DELICIOUS and even the sauce is amazing……These might be the best dumplings ever!

For my main I tried the Kung Pao Chicken.

It’s not bad but flatter than what I’m used to………Usually it’s a balance of more tangy…with sweet and salty………

My husband tried the Mongolian Beef.

The beef is tender and it’s slightly spicy. Mellow on the flavors too.

We tried the macarons today.

Usually they are pistachio, coffee, and cherry. But today they had a problem with the pistachios so they gave us two cherries and a coffee. The macarons are very good with good flavor. The middles are a bit thick and rich but good. We both don’t care for coffee so we didn’t try it.

My advise is to certainly get the dumplings. It’s worth a trip just for them!

That was my trip to –

Pandora’s Burgers is a small Soul Food Restaurant located in North Las Vegas Nevada. It’s not a fancy place. It’s very casual and you order and pay at the counter and someone runs out your order when it’s ready.

Some of the foods that you can order here are – Of course burgers, (The Pandora Burger is ground in house..not sure about the other burgers), wings, chicken fingers, hot links, BBQ ribs, fried turkey chop, stuffed turkey leg, fried gizzards, catfish, cajun shrimp, and also soul food Sunday goodies. Soft beverages are offered here.

My husband tried a Pastrami Cheese Burger with Fries.

The bun was grilled nicely and the flavors are good. This burger was cooked all the way well that is typical Southern Style. The fries are the soft style…….

I tried the Turkey Leg Off The Pitt with a side order of macaroni and cheese.

It’s good but not perfect. The turkey really is fall off the bone tender. The flavors are good but it isn’t juicy…….The ,macaroni and cheese also is Southern Style (meaning the pasta is very soft). I can taste that the macaroni and cheese was made with real cheeses and is also seasoned very nicely……I think it might have a dash of hot Chile oil in it.

The owners were very nice and engaging.

That was my trip to Pandora’s Burgers.

District One is a Vietnamese/Asian Bar and Restaurant located by an end of Chinatown in Las Vegas Nevada.

My husband started off by trying the pork belly buns.

They differ some than what he expected……It seems like the pork was stewed and is tasty but on the dry side.

I tried a shaking beef salad.

It’s also not what I expected. The beef usually is stir fried or wok-seared. This beef does taste marinated (like it should be) but also seems stewed instead seared.

Looks stewed……

The other problem with this salad is all the soup in the salad melting the greens.

This might be great for some but I didn’t enjoy.

The waiter highly recommended the shaking beef pho to my husband so that is what he tried.

He thought the flavors were ok but also didn’t care for the stewed type beef. We got this dish from many restaurants before and the beef was never stewed before.

This restaurant is different from other Vietnamese Restaurants. They do offer more seafood dishes like yellow tail tacos, yellow tail collar, fried whole fish, and lobster pho.

Different here…Shaking Beef is stewed and not shaking here.
