Southpoint Lobster Grilled Cheese
If you are in Vegas, you have to go gamble and eat at our pal, and fellow NASCAR racer Brendan Gaughan's casino... South Point. If you are there... have a real tasty lobster grilled cheese sandwich at the "Big Sur Oyster Bar." It's real good.
GarageCam Greatest Hits
If you haven't watched our very own MatthewDillner and Garagecam Live on NASCAR.com... Check out the greatest hits of the 2011 season. The Live show takes requests from fans on what they want to see as the drivers get set for the first practice of the weekend.
The Audacity of Dope
NASCAR writer, and friend of MD, Monte Dutton just released his first novel, "The Audacity of Dope." He's a real good writer so the book is automatically a winner. Order it here!

The Peppermill
Hands down our favorite place to eat, 24-7, in Vegas.
Spotter Mike Herman says, "Are you in search of "Old School Vegas?" Then look no further than the Peppermill, located between the Riviera & Encore on the Las Vegas Strip. Step inside the Fireside Lounge, and you'll go straight back in time to 1972 & the Elvis Years. Whether it's 3am or 3pm, the Peppermill is the coolest ultra lounge in Vegas. Grab a seat by the firepit and unwind by enjoying a famous "Scorpion." If the neon decor looks familiar, just imagine Robert De Niro & Sharon Stone in the movie "Casino." One of the famous scenes with Ace & Ginger was filmed inside the Peppermill.
If you're in search of eats, then stay to the right, and walk into the 24 Hour Restaurant & Coffee Shop. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner, the Peppermill has it all, with big portions that will leave you satisfied."
SUGGESTIONS: The Pastrami Burger, The famous Fruit Plate. Oh, and any Omlette.

China Poblano
Ok....Speedeats Faithful might know and love a place in Phoenix called Chino Bandido that features a fusion of Asian and Mexican flavors. If you like that, and are making the trip to Vegas, give China Poblano a try. It's not the true character joint like Chino... but this restaurant features cuisines from both cultures (although most seperate). They take reservations and offer a to-go menu! A hip place for the hip foodie!

Hash House A Go Go
click here to view our 2010 video
Working on your portion-control? Haaaa! Stay away from Hash House A Go Go. The place serves monster gourmet dishes that are a unique spin on traditional midwest farm food. Our friends at Racing Electronics introduced us to Hash House. We took the Turner Sports / NASCAR.com folks there during banquet week. Try the Sage Fried Chicken Hardwood Smoked Bacon Waffles! They're breakfast is legendary as well.
Oh... they have a location on the strip but it's worth the drive or cab-ride to go to the location off the strip. We prefer that one! The food seems much better at the off-strip location.

Polish Deli
Las Vegas... Polish food? Why the heck not? Rubbingsracing.com reporter Farrah Kaye's mother suggests this place. What? An excuse to eat Kielbasa and Pierogies... I'm In. Word on the street is that they have a ton of great meat at the counter and a variety of Pierogies! Yummmmmmm!

Michael's Gourmet Room
Michael's has consistently been one of the top restaurants reviewed in Las Vegas. Why does Speedeats include it? Well truthfull for more than just the reviews and tasty dishes. Our buddy, NASCAR driver Brendan Gaughan and his family own the South Point Casino that Michael's is a part of. It's one of Brendan's favorite food spots and should be one of yours too!
