Expensive Vegas Restaurants

You gotta love Las Vegas where else in the world can you spend $5000 on a burger.

At Fleur de Lys, chef Hubert Keller's palace of good taste at Mandalay Bay, you can get a $5,000 Kobe hamburger with truffles and foie gras . . . and a bottle of 1995 Château Pétrus, which Tobias Peach, the general manager, says accounts for about $4,975 of the price.

Or how about a 16-course, $360-per-person feast at Joël Robuchon at the MGM?

To be honest around every corner and certainly in every hotel on the Strip there is an “expensive restaurant”. I thought about recreating a list here, but my budget and experience would be limited to the lower end restaurants. But I did find a nice slideshow that Forbes put together.

Forbes has put nice slideshow together of the 10 most expensive Las Vegas restaurants. It is worth a look.

Las Vegas Shows and Web 2.0

What does the latest internet craze have in common with Las Vegas Shows? More than you might think.

The biggest and most popular Web 2.0 sites such as Digg, Technorati and even your plain old blogging technology like Wordpress all thrive on participation. Participation is something that Las Vegas has been using for 50 years. From the small little magician shows to the giant productions you will find more shows in Las Vegas than anywhere else in the world that rely on audience participation to make them work.

Sounds familiar? What would YouTube be without videos? Pretty boring. The same goes for Tony and Tina’s Wedding, a Las Vegas show that relies on customer participation, after all what is a wedding without any guests (watch a video here).

Isn’t it interesting to see how things can work in what appears to be totally different environments?
