Vegas Day 5



We had hoped to make it to Quark's more often during our trip, but today being our last full day we made a point to go there for lunch after a visit to the Las Vegas Natural History Museum. Dan started off with the James Tea Kirk ($8.50), described on the menu as "The legendary Captain Kirk went where no man had gone before and tasted exotic beverages from around the galaxy. This drink, on Earth a Long Island Iced Tea, is offered at Quark's with Gin, Rum, Vodka, Blue Curacao, Sour Mix and Sprite."



I started off with an Acturian Fizz: "Lemon Rum, 151 Rum, lemonade and strawberry puree make this pleasure enhancing drink a hit with Lwaxana Troi."



But then switched to a Mutara Nebula: "An interstellar beverage clouded with various colors sure to knock your sensors off. 151 Rum, Blue Curacao, Pina Colada, Grenadine, and whip cream."



Then we ordered some food. The Cardassian Fish & Chips for Dan: "Cardassian beer-battered fish, pacific red snapper and seasoned fried chips, served with tartar sauce and lemon."



And the 'Saucer Section' for me: "BBQ Chicken, roasted poblano peppers, red onion, cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese, layered in three tortillas, served with lime cilantro sour cream."



And we opted to eat dinner in the room again, ordering shrimp pasta, a grilled chicken Caesar salad, and some devil's food cake to share.



I loved that the pats of butter were even branded with the Planet Hollywood logo. That's some attention to detail.



The food was quite good, and laying in bed together, sharing a huge piece of decadent chocolate cake was a great way to spend our last night in Vegas.
