Superficial guide to las vegas,
By hank (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Frommer's Irreverent Guide to Las Vegas (Paperback)
I found this book pretty annoying. On the one hand, it gives a good overview of vegas and some interesting facts. But trying to use it while we were there, we found it almost never gave enough information to be useful. In particular, we tried to use the guide to find restaurants, and found the one-sentence-long reviews of restaurants severely lacking. If anything they sound like advertisements. Here's a random example: "At Samba Brazilian Steakhouse, skewered rotisserie meats are roasted over coals at the open kitchen, then carved table side with machete-like knives." That's the complete treatment of that restuarant! OK, so at a steak house they roast meats -- duh! Are they any good? Should I go there? Is it better than anywhere else? Is it expensive? This information is very typical of the level of detail in the book.
