| CAESAR'S PALACE | ||||
|
FRIENDLINESS RATING: C
They're nice until they find out you're poor! GAMBLING RATING: C You must be a high roller to enjoy this place. ATMOSPHERE: B+ Well, if you play a table game you will almost always find yourself sitting beside a big hairy guy with lots of gold chains who is betting $500 or more a hand. The new renovations are beautiful, however. The casino has new vaulted ceilings and Roman artwork around the borders. And don't be surprised if you see one of Caesar's harem girls wandering around the casino floor. FOOD: B+ Try the Texas Nachos, with chicken and barbecue sauce, at Planet Hollywood. The Caviarteria is a new upscale "diner" that features Cristal champagne by the glass and speciality caviar tasters. The Cheesecake Factory, though extremely noisy, has a huge menu (and equally huge portions) that are sure to please anybody. And check out their long list of cheesecakes and tempting desserts. OTHER: Check out the Forum Shops if you're bored. It is the most amazing mall I've ever seen! Cool specialty stores and talking statues round out the entertainment. Be sure to check out the Caviarteria (where you can get a quick snack of imported caviar and champagne), the 3-story FAO Schwartz toy store (the STAR WARS section on the second floor is a must-see), a huge Virgin Mega-Store, and Nike Town, where workers send down shoes in your size via air tubes located throughout the store. Make sure that you don't miss the religious shrine in front of the casino...very weird and beautiful. WEB SITE: www.caesars.com FOR RESERVATIONS OR INFORMATION: 1-800-445-4544
