Beijing Noodle No 9 review – Vegas noodle soups and dumplings
This review of a Las Vegas restaurant is a break from The Picky Glutton’s usual London-based coverage Caesar’s Palace hotel in Las Vegas has several dining options and one of the glossier ones is Beijing Noodle No. 9.

Even though renowned French chef Alain Ducasse has a well-regarded restaurant at London’s Dorchester hotel, I have yet to make my way there. I have managed to dine at Ducasse’s Las Vegas establishment though, the succinctly named Mix. … Continue reading
