Because I want people to say, see that S Car Go!

The Pies took a short trip to Vegas this past weekend and let me tell you, it was a truly wonderful getaway. Our stomachs thanked us profusely.

After flying in on JetBlue (yay!)we checked into the MGM Grande on Saturday.

There are no pics of the MGM. Just.food.

Our first night, we dined at one of our favorite restaurants ever - Mon Ami Gabi.

They start you off with warm bread and a corn/tomato side. Great start!
Then we ordered 2 appetizers - the warm duck confit (heavenly)
and our ever so favorite, escargots in butter, olive oil and pesto. If the pan wasn't searing hot, I'm pretty sure we would have licked it clean. But alas, we let our bread do that job! For wine, we had a bottle of the Dr. Loosen Riesling. Sooooooo refreshingly good!
But the cap isn't as nice smelling as a cork :)
Mr. Pie ordered the bone-in ribeye for his dinner while I chose an appetizer for mine so that we could share both.
I got the scallop appetizer - yum.
Aren't we adorable? Sorry for the blurry photo - my camera is drunk.

We are so happy, we ended up ordering 2 desserts!
Bread pudding! Filled with yummy things I don't even remember!
Stuffed inside this crepe was vanilla ice cream. Oh no they din't!
Good lord, we stuffed ourselves silly! Tomorrow's post - part 2 of our gluttony.
