Good Morning, Adventurers!
Good Morning!
So yesterday we had one of the longest travel dates ever maybe the longest travel day ever.
We made our way from Australia over to one of our favorite cities in the world, Las Vegas
Yes, it was very brutal, but we survived we're feeling good. You can't be too tired in Vegas
That's like... it just has the best energy.
So we're not huge gamblers
but when we used to live in San Francisco
it was a super cheap flight over to Vegas so we would come here all the time and we loved just roaming the strip and
Checking the place out and going to shows but what we loved most of all was going to the buffets
So Vegas is actually known for having tons of buffets. And today we are going to find out
Woah
Vegas is actually known for having tons of buffets
so today we are going to check and see if it's worth it to pay for the most expensive buffet or to stick with the cheapest.
All right, let's go get our buffet on
First up we have found what we believe is the cheapest Vegas buffet. It is here at Arizona Charlie's
What's the quality gonna be like? Are we gonna get food poisoning? I don't know
Let's go find out.
So we're heading in but I think we're gonna have to sign up for their players' card to get the cheapest price so..
We'll see how that goes.
Awesome, Thank you!
i'll make that in a bit, thank you though.
Apparently it is the casino's anniversary today. So you get champagne and cake
I think this is a good omen for how today's gonna go.
Hi. Can you sign up for the rewards card?
yes
Thank you, (Goodluck guys thank you babye) Thank you
We are officially members we have our champagne. Now, let's go try this cheap-ass buffet
We've gotten free champagne and now they're giving us free strawberry daiquiri. I'll take it!
I think I love this place.
A little sweet, but it's good
Very cold.
It is still the cheapest buffet
But we actually came on a Friday so they upped their game you get prime rib tonight. So I think we ended up paying
$17.99 but on a weeknight you would pay $11.99. I'm not sure how we get to the solids legit epic stage. But uh,
So technically you can get this buffet for $9.99. So that is the cheapest buffet
The cheapest.
We have been seated. We are about to head up to the buffet. See what it's all about
It smells good
And we are very hungry. So and we have another expensive buffet that we're gonna eat later today.
So we got to take it a little bit easy.
Yeah.
Alright, Let's go!
So they seem to have all of the usual things: Pizza, Pasta, Salads.
They also have a little
Mexican food section and a little Chinese food section and then your prime rib and carving station. Lots and lots of desserts
So far just by the look of it. It doesn't look as bad as I thought it was going to be
No, it's actually...maybe they're putting on their A game since it's their Anniversary and It's a Friday night.
But, It's not as bad as I thought.
Let's load it up see how it tastes
So pizza I feel like is notoriously bad at buffets
So I'm very curious to see how this Pizza compares to the more expensive buffet that we're gonna go to after this
Actually doesn't look that bad. I mean as buffet pizza goes.
Having a hard time deciding what desserts to get
I mean, I guess it's a buffet so you could get all of them. I don't know. What are you gonna choose?
I don't know.
I think I want to do the carrot cake
Look how cute, It's got a little carrot on them.
I on the other hand, I'm sticking with the cheesecake. Oh, yeah
All right, our early-ish dinner whatever whatever we're calling this is served
So I got the prime rib, which I'm very excited to try
I also got some macaroni and cheese because I feel like that's a staple of a buffet.
Hey
I got their fish
Just to try and see what fish is like at this Buffet and then I got some they were called drunken noodles
and then I can't remember but this was like some Asian chicken stir-fry and then
One cheesy ravioli to see how their pasta goes.
Let's put their prime rib to the test. I haven't had prime rib in a really long time
Get a center cut piece
So he was cooking all this fresh up there and it looks pretty juicy and pretty delicious.
It's nice to put some sauce on there
They also had some grilled veggies on the side that you could gone or gotten to go with it. Let's see.
It's really good, I'm impressed. It's really tender really flavorful.
Not chewy at all. I would eat this at home.
So you have to come on Friday to get the prime rib.
Yeah, Friday and Saturday, I think.
So this doesn't come with the cheaper buffet, but we really wanted to try it anyway.
I got a lot of buffet staples I feel like on my plate
I got the vegetables because vegetables I feel like are always hit or miss and
I got the pizza as I mentioned earlier
I want to see what the pizza what the quality of the pizza is and how it compares to the next buffet
Little piece of chicken and then I think there's like a tamale in here or something like that. I'm not really sure
It'll be a surprise. But first I'm gonna give this piece of pizza a try, I put a little Parmesan cheese on there
The crust is a little bit chewy, but the flavor of the pizza is actually pretty good
it's really cheesy and nice and salty and I think that
Inevitably the pizza just kind of sits up there and kind of bakes under that lamp
So it gets a little bit chewy, but the flavor itself is not that bad
Next up is the chicken. Now, he was grilling all this fresh back there and you can see it looks nice and
Juicy and tender and I think it's actually gonna be pretty tasty.
It's a pretty good piece of chicken.
Its moist but it is a little drier than it looks
Doesn't have a ton of seasoning on it
So it's not a ton of flavor other than just the chicken in the little char marks, which isn't too bad
But all of it so far has been better than I was expecting for the cheapest buffet in Vegas
What are you gonna try next?
I'll try the fish. Cause I'm scared of it getting cold
Um.. don't have high hopes
But, We'll see.
Oh It's cold.
To be honest, I usually stay away from the fish at a buffet just because it's never usually
Usually quite not a great idea.
It is really mushy. Not really flaky anymore. Just mushy, but there's a lot of seasoning in there
It was in like a whole vat of butter and seasoning. So it's really salty and I guess the
Flavor's nice just the texture is not very fishy anymore. All right, little macaroni
Yeah, let's see how you are
It's so hard to get a bite.
Macaroni looks good. Macaroni is hard to mess up though I think.
Is it? I don't know.
It's buffet macaroni and cheese.
It's not gonna win any awards, but it tastes like macaroni and cheese, I guess so that's a win.
it almost tastes like
Nacho cheese on there or something
It's really creamy. I guess at least that's nice.
With the vegetables, The question is, I'm sure they're previously frozen
But are they microwaved? How long have they been sitting up there?
Are they cooked thoroughly the carrots a little hard, so maybe not
I think the carrot is the measure because those everything else can be cooked. Okay, and the carrots still be cooked poorly
It's not that bad the carrot's crunchy but not too crunchy it's got some kind of sweet sauce or something in there
Just a subtle sweetness, which is nice and I mean, they're definitely previously frozen
But I really can't tell if they were microwaved or just quickly heated up or something like that
We've dug into everything and I'd say the highlight for me was probably this tamale
It was in a little husk over here and actually had a lot of flavor to it. I was surprised it's pretty good
I had some of this chicken in here the deep fried like you should chicken and then in this noodle dish and the fish
Were all not good
The only meat that was pretty good was the prime rib. I will say though, everything was seasoned pretty well. Just
Most things were overcooked or dry.
and they do have some made-to-order
Sections up there that we do like stir fries, I think and made-to-order pasta
So maybe give that a go when you're here,
But now, maybe the point of redemption. I don't know
We've got cheesecake and carrot cake to try.
All right, little carrot guy. That seems a little squishy in there
Maybe it won't be dry or anything
Ouch, that's pretty dry.
It has like a little lemon taste to it. It's actually the flavor is really good in there
It's a no complaint for the price we paid for the buffet.
Last but not least we have this little piece of cheesecake now cheesecake is probably my favorite dessert of all time
And I've had some pretty good ones in my day
so I don't know that this is really gonna stack up but I remain hopeful so we've got a little
strawberry sauce on there
Let's give it a go
The flavor isn't too bad, but the texture is not that great. It's just really creamy pudding
Texture it almost tastes like pudding tastes like vanilla pudding a little bit with a little cheesecake flavor to it
I mean, it's all really cheap artificial kind of ingredients obviously because it's a cheap buffet but for being a cheap buffet
Not that bad. Will I eat the whole thing?
Probably not
Would you like a bite?
No, I'm okay. Thanks!
So we have officially tried the cheapest buffet in Vegas
Now we have to kill a few hours before we tried the most expensive one, and I think I know just what to do
The next buffet we're heading to is in Caesar's Palace. This place is going nuts you guys, it's Friday night. Everyone's going crazy
We're staying down at the end of this trip and it is like snooze town US.
Yeah compared to this
We've been lost for a minute. I'm not gonna lie, but we saw a sign for the buffet
Holy cow. Most expensive buffet we've ever paid for that's for sure. It better be good
All right, you've been chosen. They're literally giving us a tour of all the food before we sit down.
I don't even know where to start here. Our host told us that there are over
500 dishes at this buffet. They have a lot of things like our last one. They have a fresh mexican station, a carving station
But this one also has a whole sushi section, a dessert area
I thought buffet desserts could not be good. But this is proving me wrong
But now I guess we have to go find things to eat. I'm really nervous about this. It's so much pressure. Geez
I don't even know where to begin
But we're gonna give it a try you guys they have a whole ramen section over here. Everything looks so fresh and delicious
I'm freakin'.
I feel like I'm in heaven.
Whatever price they would have named I would have paid it for this. It's beautiful. It's absolutely beautiful.
Guys, look at all this sushi that they have right here
Holy cow!
And you can have any of it. All of it.
You could take that tray probably to your table
Don't mind if I do.
We got crab claws, sea snails, chilled tiger prawns, snow crab legs, pacific oysters.
Holy cow. I don't even know how to eat half of these things because they're so fancy
This place is certified bananas
It gets out one banana, maybe two bananas
Maybe like three bananas.
A whole three bananas so we have pretty much looked at everything in this buffet
We're completely blown away as you've seen we're not really sure where to start
So our idea is we're just gonna go to one end from one end to the other and get all the goodies we could find
Holy cow
Okay, we did our first pass I think there will be many passes.
We've tried to get some things that are similar to what we got at the last place to give you a little comparison
From our cheapest buffet. I don't know if it's even fair to do this so, to be honest.
Okay, but let's start with the prime rib here already
The piece of prime rib here is about 50 times bigger at the last place. It is absolutely beautiful
Look at this, it's huge. Oh my god. The prime rib was the draw at the last place
I feel like the prime rib is like
Maybe the last thing people would get here after the crab legs and sushi and all the stuff. Here we go
I didn't even put any sauce on them and it's fantastic. I think it was like
Coffee-crusted prime rib or something like that? Oh my gosh
It's so good.
So we got a bunch of crab legs
But I think we're gonna wait to try these off-camera.
Just because we don't have the cracker and we don't even know how the heck to eat crab legs
Just know that they exist here
They also have cold already sliced crab legs if that's more your style.
And it is just completely unlimited.
We got the biggest cup of butter to go with that.
I'm gonna try this pizza because it looks a lot better than the pizza we had this morning
I mean check it out. This looks like a real piece of pizza.
I almost feel bad saying that all the stuff was good at the last buffet because I had no idea what was in store for us.
This piece of pizza looks so much more legit than the one this morning and I have a
Feeling it's probably gonna taste a lot more legit
Everything just tastes so much more high-quality and fresh and really the main difference is the crust
You know the crust at the first place we went was like a piece of cardboard that you were kind of gnawing through
The flavor of the pizza wasn't that bad
But this is better and the crust is just so much more
Legit and you can see the operation that they have going back there. It looks pretty legit as well. Pretty dang good piece of pizza.
I thought buffets only had one type of macaroni and cheese. This is proving me wrong
This is like fancy macaroni noodles, and the sauce looks super thick and homemade
This is rich and creamy and tastes very authentic and not boxed at all
So there's so much stuff you can get at this buffet. You guys. They're about to close
We really don't have time to try it all
Our waitress just came by and she was like
It looks like you guys are having fun taking your photos
But I just want to let you know the buffet is closing in about 30 minutes
So we at least wanted to compare the stuff that we had this morning to the stuff here
But obviously they have a whole bunch of stuff like the crab legs and this then what are these sweet potato tots? Yeah
This is one type of lamb. I believe they have like four different types of lamb
This is on some little like puree with peas
They had also lamb shanks and all sorts of duck different types of duck. I mean we got pork belly
I want to try one of these stuff. I think they might have like maple syrup on them or something.
Oh yeah. Oh my God. It's so good. It's all so good.
I think we did this buffet right look at our feast we have here
I've got tacos, some tonkatsu ramen over here, all kinds of stuff. A big tray of desserts that we're gonna try in a bit
I mean, you guys, they even have raw oysters.
Like what is this? Only in Vegas at the buffet. It's amazing.
Oh man.
That was amazing
Perfectly sweet not fishy at all. Oh my gosh. It was so tender.
I would have never said eating buffet oysters is a good idea.
But at this buffet do it.
I would say yeah, if you want to jump start a diet or go to the hospital, yeah
That's how you eat oyster buffets or buffet oysters.
It is officially dessert time.
They had such an insane dessert spread up there you guys we've got a little creme brulee over here
This is a key lime tart. We got a turtle cheesecake guy over here, brownie
And then of course, this is cherry cheesecake we had strawberry cheesecake this morning
But I'm gonna give it a try and do a little comparison
It definitely has little chunks of fresh cherries in it, which is a good sign
It's good, but I wouldn't say it's that much better. It's marginally better than the one I had this morning
I feel like cheesecake even when it's bad, it's still pretty good
I think we've done all the tasting we can do on camera. They're about to kick us out of here
so we're gonna devour all this but I hope you guys enjoyed this video if you did make sure you leave a like and a

If you're new to this channel
also leave a comment down below and let us know what the best buffet that you've ever been to is whether it's in Vegas or
Somewhere else. Just let us know what your best experience is and how much it cost
That's the most important thing and if you decide to come to this buffet if you come earlier in the week
It's a little bit cheaper, but regardless of the price I would say it's worth it
The food is incredibly delicious and I think the diversity and the quality of it is what makes it worth it in my opinion
But just make sure that you come early so you're not pressed for time trying to stuff your faces everything before they kick you out.
This has been amazing
So we grew up in the Midwest and we are used to some buffets that were a lot like the first one we went to
We've never experienced a buffet like this. Oh my gosh
Hands down one of the best dining experiences I think we've ever had we're gonna go to bed very full and very happy
But we will come back at you tomorrow with more Vegas stuff. So good night adventurers.
We'll see you on the road.
Oh my god this creme brulee. My body says stop but my heart says keep going
