I'm not trying to be the "arbiter" of taste. I don't find the mall inside the Venetian Hotel to look like the real Venice. if that makes me pretentious and a schmuck, so be it.

Earl,
I get what you're saying, but the great thing about Vegas is that it's NOT real. We all know it, but it's pretty darn cool to stand in "St. Mark's Square" and imagine (or pretend or remember) what it feels like to be in the REAL Venice. Where else could you do that? Vegas, baby.! Just my opinion!

earl, duh.

I had a great meal in Lutece and give it a big thumbs up.

Earl you suck

Earl: all you had to do was say you did not care for it, and not imply my sister has no taste. That was mean and uncalled for. And in this day and age a little civility goes a LONG way.

We go to vegas quite often and always enjoy the Luxe Cafe...casual and on the casino level, but great food. They have a great lunch special (sald and pasta) for $10, great chopped salads, pasta dishes, etc. Have fun.

What I want to know is, is the Gelatto bar still there?

Natalie, I heard about the Luxe for lunch, supposed to be very good. It is run by The Cheesecake Factory which is one of the best chains around and one of my favorites. I love their Cobb salads .
