When I found out I was coming to Vegas I was super excited about my dining options, the most tantalizing of which were the buffets. Then I got the call from Rhonda about the hookup at Craftsteak I thought I was in hog heaven. However, I've been so busy that I've only been to one restaurant - the Mexican joint with Tacos ala Cucaracha. My diet has been pretty shitty due to minimal time to find and purchase food throughout the day. Luckily The Man can extract vital nutrients from even the least balanced of diets. Here's what I ate my first day here.
I started out with some coffee using the hotel coffee pod. It was Starbucks, a real treat for the business traveler. I wasn't that hungry & didn't have anything to eat anyway, so l I just rolled with the coffee.
Throughout the day I consumed 1.5 tins of Altoids. I admit that I am a little worried about damage to my stomach lining due to the curiously strong mints.
I had some beef jerky to nibble on while driving. It really hit the spot and warded off my hunger (they forgot to schedule a lunch for me).
I also had a rice krispie treat in the car. They're a nice, sweet foil to the spicy jerky.
By mid-afternoon I was pretty damn hungry & out of beef jerky and rice krispy treats. I had time to stop at a 7-11 and foraged around looking for something to fill me up. There were five more hours on my schedule until I could get back to the hotel so I needed something that could really take care of business. I decided to try the MET-Rx BIG 1000 Cookie Dough meal replacement bar thinking it would do the job. What a bad decision. That fucker sat like a cannonball in my stomach. I sure wasn't hungry for a while, mainly because of the pain in my gut from the genetically modified cookie dough food log in my belly.
I was totally wiped out after my long first day of interviews and only had the energy to get a subway roast beef 6 inch. At the hotel room I housed that badboy and didn't really even taste it.
It's surprising how if you are super tired and hungry, when you eat a bag of baked Lays they're not that bad.
My night ended with a little tv and a few cans of beer. For some reason my I've had some tummy trouble this week.

It's funny that you would look at that cookie-dough-meal-bar and think, "Maybe I'll try it."
Whatever happened to Snickers? I know they don't "satisfy" jack shit, but it's a tried and true method from making it from A to B.
Still hungry? Then eat two of them.
