Louie Louie Fried Chicken is a semi-Fast-food type of wing, chicken fingers, sandwich, and fries type of place located in the North/West part of Las Vegas Nevada. You order and pay at the counter and they run out your order when it’s ready (about seven minutes).

I tried a combo platter of a chicken sandwich with fries and a soda.

My sandwich has Louie Louie sauce, pickles, and slaw on it and I asked for medium heat. NOTICE THAT SANDWICH LOOKS RUNNY.

The fries and soda are very good BUT –

I take out the sandwich and it’s such a mess I can’t eat it as a sandwich.

I pull out one of the two chicken tenders.

It isn’t tender.

It’s dry and stringy.

My husband also got dry tenders in his chicken sandwich.

We also tried the macaroni and cheese.

It’s almost good. The flour taste isn’t cooked out so you taste flour.

Well the fries and soda were good.

That was my trip to Louie Louie Fried Chicken.

Honey Salt is an American Farm to Table Type of full service restaurant located in the Summerlin part of Las Vegas Nevada. It’s been slightly redecorated since my last visit.

Old look below – They always had lots of homey things inside including some vintage salt and pepper shakers. These shelves are gone now but they still have some homey things around and a few salt and pepper shakers. They also used to have a mirror collection on one of the walls.

Below is how it currently looks.

Today I tried the Fried Chicken Sandwich that comes with a small Caesar Salad. (called Biloxi Buttermilk Fried Chicken Sandwich)

The chicken is fried nicely and is a generous portion. It’s juicy and tasty and is also adorned with slaw, the right amount of House Durkee’s dressing and pickle chips. The Caesar salad is tasty and has a nice amount of grated cheese on it. The croutons in it taste house made and are very good..

We also shared a side of Macaroni and Cheese with Kale.

For my taste the pasta is a bit soft but maybe they are going for Southern style? It is very creamy but doesn’t taste like cheese sauce to us. At first I thought it was a cream cheese taste but in saucier bites it was more sour like a sour cream taste.’

To be honest it didn’t taste this way last time to us. Last time the dominate flavor was cheese. If they used sour cream last time they used much less.

Below is from last tome.

My husband had a burger medium-rare (called backyard burger – cheddar, caramelized onion, tomato jam)

It was cooked to medium-rare as requested and was a very good burger served with freshly made hot fries with fluffy centers.

I took half my sandwich home so I could fit in some dessert.

To my surprise the Key Lime pie is big enough to feed FOUR people.

It’s very good with a tasty sweet moist crust taste like brown sugar, butter, and a little cinnamon. A nicely made curd and fluffy caramelized meringue.

The menu changes from time to time. These items not on the menu at the moment but could be on the menu again.

Honey Salt is certainly Worth a Try!

Jackson’s Bar & Grill is a 24/7 Bar, Gaming, Restaurant type of place. After months of hundreds of people on Facebook (some days over 500 ) praising this establishment I felt the need to try it. The Specialty of the house are the $20. Steaks.

This place is located in Las Vegas Nevada not too far from the Las Vegas Strip.

It’s not a fancy place. You walk past the bar to the dining rooms and seat yourself.

We Ordered Steaks.

I tried the filet mignon (2 – 6 oz filets with chefs vegetable and your choice of side….I picked baked potato and added onions with mushrooms)

My favorite part of the plate is the baked potato. It’s large and fluffy inside. It taste good with the added butter. I don’t usually add sour cream to my plain baked potatoes. But I would be extra FRIGHTENED to add their sour cream.

They offer ACIDIFIED naturally and artificially flavored sour cream…….That sounds horrifying.

anyways

The steak is cooked to my request of medium-rare. But the steak is tough and also lacks flavor. The green beans are not very appetizing. I like the onions with mushrooms and the baked potato is very good.

My husband tries the 16oz. Ribeye medium-rare with onion rings.

He thought it was OK for a cheap steak. He said if it was better he would have eaten the whole steak. The onion rings are fried nicely.

If you enjoy steaks possible tough, hard to cut and chew. and no matter what they taste like then this place is for you.

Not the best.

That was my trip to-

Winchell’s Pub & Grill is a 24/7 American Restaurant, Bar, and Gaming Type of Place with 2 locations. The North Las Vegas Location has a separate bar and gaming area.

Then here is part of the dining area. I noticed behind this room is another dining room and a patio.

I sat in a booth and the springs seem busted.

It’s not a wine place so I tried a Bloody Mary.

I don’t know what I am tasting?

It also doesn’t seem like there is alcohol in it…..I don’t know why but this is very difficult to drink. (yuk)

My husband tried a cup of chili.

He said it’s not seasoned much. It’s mostly ground beef and beans and is very thick like a sloppy Joe.

I tried the Fish and Chips with sweet potato fries.

They forgot to give me the slaw that comes with it.

The sweet potato fries came with a small cup of cinnamon sugar on the side for the fries. I think the fries are ok. The cod is fried nicely but seems to be unseasoned. The tartar sauce seems mostly unseasoned too. I don’t know why this doesn’t taste good to me? I used lemon and added stuff to the tartar sauce to make it taste better but this still doesn’t taste good to me. I took a bunch home for my dogs. My older dog was extra crazy about it. It was prepared just right for her and the elderly.

My husband tried the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich.

The menu reads THIGHS but this chicken was white meat.

I tasted a small piece. It’s not spicy and it taste burnt to me.

My husband did disagree about the burnt taste but did agree not spicy and weird tasting.

He thought the potato salad tasted like from a tub and also lacked seasoning.’

The slaw was kinda weird and had walnuts in it.

Large potions – Low Prices – Good if you don’t care what it tastes like.

Parsley Modern Mediterranean is a fast/casual “Chipotle Style” Mediterranean Restaurant with four locations in Las Vegas Nevada. You build your platter as you go down the line.

We both ordered plates – one was a chicken schnitzel plate and the other was 1/2 beef, 1/2 chicken shawarma.

We also shared an order of falafels.

The Falafels are very good here. They have crisp exteriors and very herby middles.

Much better than a similar National Casual Mediterranean Chain.

Worth a Try!

A New Food Hall recently opened in the Venetian on the casino floor called Via Via Food Hall. We did a little sampling here and there.

Eater Las Vegas said one of the best bites of the month was the Medium-Hot Chicken Sando from Howl’in Ray’s so I had to try it.

And we tried Shake Fries with Comeback Sauce.

Fries are hot and fresh, nicely seasoned, and with fluffy interiors. The sauce is tasty.

The Sando is quite large.

The white meat breaded chicken is nice and moist. The exterior is crisp and not oily. It does have layers of flavors, some heat and an added slight sweetness to it. The slaw, dill pickles, and sauce complement it well. The only thing that I am not sure about is the choice of bun they used because it disintegrates as you eat it….

Next we share one order of wagyu pastrami buns from Ivan Ramen. (pastrami made in house with sour kraut and Japanese/Russian Dressing)

They accidentally burnt our order and said we had to wait a little for a re-make.

The pastrami is almost burnt again and is slice too thin. I can taste that it is almost good but looks nothing like what they serve at their New York Location. Below is how it can look from the New York location.

Above photo is the Wagyu Pastrami Bun from Ivan Ramen New York.

I did try a few bites of Scarr’s Pizza.

It is good and does remind me of an actual slice of pizza from New York because it has that special oiliness that pizza from New York has. Scarr’s variation might be slightly thinner and lighter.

My husband gives a fried bologna sandwich a try from Turkey and the Wolf.

Of course he got it without the mayonnaise. This sandwich is made with house made potato chips, cheese, lettuce, honey mustard, and fried bologna on what looks like Texas Toast. He thought the flavors and textures were very good but would have liked better on regular white bread because it just was too much bread for his taste.

That was a little taste of Via Via Food Hall at The Venetian on the Casino Floor.

8282 Korean BBQ Express is a casual fast Korean Food (?) type of eatery located in North Las Vegas Nevada. You order at the counter and someone fills a big Styrofoam Container with food from behind the glass for you. In addition to the buffet behind the glass they also offer a menu of a few side dishes or appetizers.

Then you seat yourself.

We both tried two meat platters. They came packed enough to serve four people each and also came with a cup of soup and some kimchi.

I got Korean Fried Chicken (?), beef bulgogi (?), japchae (noodles), and steamed white rice.

The chicken tastes like chicken nuggets but has a gooey textured exterior. The chicken is dry inside and most pieces contain a chicken joint that you have to spit out.

The Beef Bulgogi is dried out and has little flavor of any kind. Also nearly every piece of beef contains hard grizzle that you have to spit out.

Not a big fan of the noodles.

The steamed white rice is really the only thing I can eat.

I ate very little but had all these chicken joints and grizzle that I spit out.

My husband tried some potstickers (we were told that they are beef & pork)

He said they were flavorless

He had a two meat platter of pork bulgogi, soy grilled chicken, japchae, fried rice.

The soy grilled chicken contained chicken joints in nearly every piece. He said the pork bulgogi wasn’t good but maybe was the best of the meats we’ve tried. He didn’t care for the noodles. The fried rice wasn’t so great either and also contained lumps of white rice in it.

We had POUNDS of leftover food (? food) that wasn’t good enough to donate to a homeless person.

I do not recommend 8282 Korean BBQ Express.
