Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

  Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos.  Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry. This blended cocktail was so fruity and delicious. To eat I had two Carne Asada Street Tacos and a Birria Poquitos Burrito. The Burrito was small and served with a side of Consommé sauce. Both food items were tasty and satisfying.  My husband also had some Street Tacos and a Margarita from the happy hour menu. My sons had a Cheese Quesadilla and beans and rice. Everyone enjoyed their dinner. I first visited Poquitos in 2012, also for happy hour, and I remembered liking it then, too. It was time for a meal there again.  For dessert, we walked about ten minutes west to  Voodoo Doughnut . The Seattle location opened late last ye...

Spice Market Buffet at Planet Hollywood

Along with fast/casual and celebrity chef restaurants in Las Vegas, buffets are also everywhere you turn.  There are some hits and misses but if you do your research you can find a buffet you enjoy with all your favorite foods.  I wanted to hit at least one buffet so I chose Spice Market at Planet Hollywood.  I also had a five dollar off coupon so that helped with the $30 per adult prices for dinner.  Kids under twelve are free and I imagine that helps many families who want to get their grub on.  You can also buy 24 hour buffet passes and visit as many different ones as you want within that time for one price.  Lunch is cheaper so I would recommend eating at a buffet for lunch and then maybe somewhere like Shake Shack for dinner if you want to save some dough.  

Spice Market is one of Vegas's best buffets.  It's a lavish one with many different types of international cuisine.  With food from all over the world, its hard to choose, and since its a buffet you don't have to.  There's plenty of fresh seafood with crab legs, mussels and salmon.  The sushi was especially good and I loved the unique presentation of the fish and chips in the mini fryers.  The Italian section had pizza from a wood fired oven and pasta for miles.  There was every type of food and I didn't even come close to trying every one.  Then the dessert area seemed to stretch forever.  We went a little nuts grabbing cupcakes and loading up a small plate of sweets to try.  There was also flan, éclairs, sugar free desserts, and ice cream with cones and sprinkles, and lots more.  My favorite was the mini lemon pie topped with a blackberry and the vanilla cupcake with strawberries.  Spice Market was a huge buffet with tons of seating and food stations that seem to go on and on.  You'll burn the calories just walking around to get more food!
