Kirin Chinese Restaurant (Oahu) Dim Sum Review.

Kirin Chinese Restaurant Honolulu (Oahu).  |  hiohio.net

​Today I want to share with you one of my old favorites. 
I remember going to Kirin when it was still at the Ala Moana center.
​But since it had moved to this current location years ago, we don't visit it as much since it's a bit out of the way
​(for us anyways).

Las Vegas Trip Report- 4.23.16 to 4.28.16- Day 4

4.26.16- Mirage Cravings Buffet, Fat Tuesdays, Lobster Me, Aria Buffet.
​
We started the day by walking to Mirage to get breakfast at their buffet.

​Wait...another buffet already?

​Full disclosure-- before you guys think we pig out at buffets-- we actually share the plates of food.
I don't eat much so I only taste a tiny bit of everything.   I guess that kind of defeats the purpose of
all-you-can-eat though; as essentially we are really eating for one, lol.

Mirage Cravings Buffet (Won Tons).

​Is it really the ultimate dining experience? 
​ I guess we'll have to find out...

4.24.16-- Wicked Spoon, WS + Bacchanal Comparison, Downtown: Beef Jerky Store, Vic + Anthony.

Wicked Spoon buffet Las Vegas (decor).

We started the day quite late today since my legs were ultra sore and I had to limp out of bed.  Is this what it feels like to be training for a marathon; or did a ghost spirit come to beat me up in the middle of the night for inhabiting their room?   

​Once up, I busted out the ironing board.   I have never ironed on vacation-- until now.  There's a first for everything right?

4.24.16-- Caesars Palace Bacchanal Sunday Brunch, 800 Degrees Pizza, Desserts.
​
To start off this trip right, we decided to equip ourselves with some
GOOD NEWS and 100 GRAND(s). 
​
​Five to be exact
​
(4 is a an ominous number in Asian Culture).
Good News and 100 Grand Candy bars image.
We got 5- 100 Grand candy bars (2 for us, 2 for Fiance's cousin & their Fiance for good luck).
Were you expecting a Jackpot photo of 500k?
​
​
I know, me too.  I thought that's what
​that meant when I got a fortune cookie recently that read
"You will soon witness a miracle." 
​

I'm still waiting for it to come true...

"What kind of SCAM is this" you must be thinking!  ;)
