RickyBobby&I decided to try out the new sports bar, TAP, in the MGM Grand Casino over the weekend. We were in desperate need of a just-the-two-of-us dinner and one of our girlfriend’s boyfriend just started working there. There was an incredibly long wait, so we figured we’d try to find a spot at the bar and ended up having eating our whole meals at the cement-poured counter-top between some middle-aged men. I got a wedge salad and she got a shrimp pasta, which were both pretty delicious and reasonably priced. Then we split an apple crisp for dessert – one of my personal favorites. And our drinks were in mix&match mason jars, which I thought was a great touch. It was so nice to simply chit-chat and enjoy an evening. Though we were packed inside a busy&buzzing casino, it was a cozy, little dinner-date. As we were leaving, I saw a quarter under my bar stool, bent down to pick it up, then said “jack-pot” somewhat loudly as I proudly held the coin in my fingers.
…probably not the correct thing to say in a casino restaurant since everyone whipped around the look at me… but I thought it was a lucky find.
We then wandered to a couple slots, so RickyBobby could win some money like always then headed to the Falls Lounge in Dearborn to meet Mr.U and some of his buddies for some beers. It was a silly dive-bar with a somewhat grungy crowd, ending our evening with a well-rounded place. All in all, a great time as usual.
