Sip: Afternoon Tea at Mandarin Oriental Las Vegas

A family affair.

Not only do you get the seclusion and sophistication of the Mandarin Oriental, but you also get the views of the Las Vegas Strip. A perfect way to take a break from the chaos and refocus your mind and energy on something light and sweet…or even a little bubbly. The Kid’s Menu with tiny tastes of familiar comfort foods are sure to relax even the busiest of little ones.

See for yourself why Afternoon Tea at the Mandarin Oriental Las Vegas is one of my family’s favorite spots to nosh.

ROAD TRIPPING:

This month’s Road Trip is from local travel writer, Sarah Vernetti. Sarah takes us on an exploration of the Lost City Museum, just a few hours outside of Las Vegas. Sarah’s travels have taken her to destinations around the globe, however she loves exploring her own backyard in the Southwest US. Sarah spends her free time hiking in the great outdoors with her husband and daughter. To follow along on Sarah’s travels, visit wanderingoff.com.

Pinkberry is a healthy alternative on the Las Vegas Strip and fun for the whole family. Create your own frozen delight with yummy flavors like Strawberry, Coconut or (our fave) Chocolate Hazelnut. Or, build your own Greek Yogurt Parfait. Located next to CVS and Starbucks at City Center Las Vegas.
