Hey, are you going to MAGIC next week? Dollhouse will be there! At the Las Vegas Convention Center, Booth #JR12601. But you know that already...

If your feet ache from standing in the long lines at the buffets, and if you have had all the bacon you can possibly consume (is it just me, or is Vegas cuisine very heavy on the deep-fried and the bacon wrapped in bacon?), you may want to try Border Grill at the Mandalay Bay. The name may sound a bit Tex-Mex, but Border Grill is far from deep fried Americana. Downstairs, located off the luxurious outdoor pool and cabanas, you will find an elegant New York-style delicious dining experience from a Santa Monica-based celebrity chef duo.

Chefs Susan Feniger and Mary Sue Milliken present "bold, authentic foods of Mexico" like Roasted Plaintain Empanadas stuffed with black beans, poblano and cotijo cheese, or Baja Ceviche with lime marinated halibut and shrimp, or the classic Pescado Veracruzano. Oh my mouth is watering. Most appetizers are reasonably priced at $9; entrees range from $21-$29. Click here for the dinner menu. Border Grill offers some of the tastiest vegetarian and organic options on the Strip. Click here to read more about Feniger and Milliken's environmentally friendly policies.
