Max Brenner, Las Vegas

Anyone up for a little road trip? Oh boy, I am but unfortunately Vegas is not in the cards for me. But if you are heading to Fabulous Las Vegas you must hit up Max Brenner's. It is in the Caesar Palace shopping mall right across from the 3 story H&M (a double plus if I do say so). Max is a chocolatier so the whole restaurants theme is chocolate which was a dream. The menu incorporates chocolate into most of the dishes, for example, I had the Brenner Burger. It has Max's secret bbq sauce with lettuce, tomato, cheddar cheese and a vidalia onion ring on top. But it comes with waffle fries dusted with chili and cocoa powder (see chocolate) with this yummy chili/mayo dipping sauce. Oh I die just thinking about it!! Then of course is dessert and let me tell you, the menu is a book. There is so much to choose from it makes your head spin, but I did finally settle on something, the Banana Split Waffle. It has vanilla bourbon ice cream, milk chocolate truffle and caramelized rice krispies. So wipe the droll, and head to the City of Sin for some sinfully delicious food. ;)


My dinner. Sorry it is only half the burger...it was so good that I made it halfway through before I realized a picture was in order.
Dessert... Yes I did share this, but I didn't want to!

Cost: $$

Here is the link so you can check-out the menu for yourself and get directions.

Legends

This place is not as fancy as the last few, but it is still really good!! Legends is a 50's style burger joint in Upland and Glendora, CA. I always love their burgers but to be honest there are 2 things that keep me coming back for more, and at especially odd hours! It is their mozzarella sticks and rootbeer freeze. Pure heaven!! These are my late-night go to, you know when you have to have something fatty and greasy but so so good, well Legend's is it. So trust me, order a rootbeer freeze and then write me to say thank you. :)
