Agedashi Tofu at Raku in Las Vegas
I’m so glad that Corey and I ventured off the Las Vegas strip on our recent vacation to try Raku—an authentic Japanese restaurant located in the heart of Chinatown. That day we had completed an 11.6-mile hike in the blazing desert sun at Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, and we were very tempted to lounge in our hotel room and get room service. But I knew I couldn’t pass up the chance to eat at Raku, especially after reading all the rave reviews.
It’s been a while since my last post . . . I blame vacationing in Las Vegas; after all Vegas isn’t conducive to productivity. Rather it’s a decadent city—a place to go to relax and unwind. There’s great entertainment, marvelous casinos, and fabulous food.
One of the best things about Las Vegas is the food and the sheer quantity of it! Normally buffets are all about quantity, but typically lack in quality. In Vegas, you get the best of both worlds: an unlimited amount of delicious gourmet food.
