Isla...great tequila and snacks


After Beijing Noodle, we walked through Bellagio and the new city center. After losing money at Aria's casino, we went to Treasure Island. I'm not a big fan of the hotel/casino but we wanted to pick up our Love tickets at the Mirage, so we decided to walk through TI first. The one thing going for it is an upscale Mexican restaurant called Isla. When we were in NYC, we went to its sister restaurant Pampano. Isla is more casual than Pampano, but they both have wonderful margaritas in common! I had a strawberry margarita, which they prepare more like a mojito and muddle the fresh berries and lime and then add silver tequila and triple sec. We split the guacamole and salsa appetizer (which came with three different types of delicious salsas). We got our last drink to go and headed back to the Palazzo (and enjoyed a bottle of champagne in the room!).
