WE LIKE TO eat here at the SC Blog.
With dozens of some of the best restaurants in Las Vegas at Station Casinos, we have plenty of opportunities to put our mouth where the good food is. We also have some of the best chefs in town. With so many culinary resources at our disposal, we got a hankerin’ for a series of Blog posts highlighting our many dining delights.
But, where to start? Well, we’re starting at the beginning of the meal. Here’s ten of the best appetizers in Las Vegas – hand-selected by our expert epicureans – at ten of our fabulous Vegas restaurants. Bon Appétit…
Crab Cakes at Tbones
App No. 1: Crab Cakes
Where: Tbones Chophouse at Red Rock
Chef Joseph’s Comment: We start with with jumbo lump crab meat, some of the best crab meat on the market. By lightly pan-frying the crab cake with clarified butter, we create a thin golden brown crust that traps in the moisture, sealing in the juices for extra deliciousness. The crab cakes are served with a cajun remoulade made with creole mustard, lemon and pickles. We also top them with crispy potato strings.

THE CRAB CAKES AT FUEGOS STEAKHOUSE INSIDE FIESTA HENDERSON ARE BY FAR THE BEST….EVERYTIME WE GO THAT IS THE 1ST THING WE ORDER!!!!
Los Cabos at Palace station has the BEST bacon wrapped shrimp ever! We always stop in to have the shrimp and margaritas when we visit Vegas. Love them!
Found a great recipe for a pan roast similar to the pan roast at the Palace Station’s Oyster Bar, check it out at http://www.panroastrecipe.com Still doesn’t compare to the atmosphere at the oyster bar, but it is the next best thing! We go to the oyster bar there every time were are in town.
