On select dates in December, diners can enjoy a two-for-one deal at what is widely-considered to be one of the best buffets in Las Vegas, the bountiful Studio B.  This buffet features over 200 items daily plus during lunch and dinner, diners can enjoy beer or wine with their meals at no extra charge.  The buffet is well-known for its “exhibition-style” kitchen with the resort’s chefs taking part by staging live cooking demonstrations for guests.

Other outlets participating in either a buy-one, get-one deal or in a 50% off special include the M’s signature Italian restaurant, Marinelli’s, and the divinely delicious diner, Hash House A Go Go.  Just looking at the Hash House menu brings back achingly fond memories of the Sage Fried Chicken Benedict served with Bacon Mashed Potatoes.  Yeah, it’s that good.

The fine print:  The Studio B and Marinelli’s offers are good on Mondays and Tuesdays only in December.  The Hash House deal happens every Friday and Saturday from 10 PM ’til 2 AM.  To take advantage of these special offers, you must present your iMagine Players Club card (sign up at the casino’s rewards club desk) and show a printed copy of the this offer.  Click on this link to get a printable copy along with all the details:  December Dining Deals at the M Resort.

Get 25% off this spicy Thai Beef Salad -- and your entire food and drink bill -- with this special offer from Serendipity 3 in Las Vegas.

Lots of people will be heading to Las Vegas for Harrah’s — now Caesar’s — Great Gift Wrap Up 2010 (GGWU) so there’s no better time to feature some hot Las Vegas deals.

Here’s a stellar offer from Serendipity 3, that candy pink and creamy vanilla confection of a restaurant perched smack dab on the sidewalk in front of Caesars Palace (which just happens to be the location of the GGWU happening December 2 – 6):

Get a sweet 25% off your tab at Serendipity 3 at Caesars Palace just for mentioning Caesar’s Pulse of Vegas Blog, the Facebook page for Caesars Palace or the Caesars Palace Twitter account.  No strings, no hoops, it’s just that simple!  This special insider discount is good Mondays through Thursdays from Dec. 1 through Dec. 17.

With all the yummy and gargantuan stuff on the menu — footlong hot dogs with all, and we mean ALL the trimmings; massive salads such as the spicy, crunchy Thai Beef and plenty of over-stuffed sandwiches and cheesy good pasta dishes and more — be sure to save rrrroom for the famous Frrrozen Hot Chocolate dessert.  (We like ours served with a shot of Bailey’s on top.)  The 25% off deal is even good on cocktails so live a little and order one of the Cotton Candy Martinis or fruity Mojitos.  Trust us, you won’t be disappointed.

We get asked  — a lot — about the best Las Vegas Strip happy hours and so think it is our duty to check out as many as possible.  One that stood out recently for both food and drink is Cabo Wabo at Planet Hollywood.  The Strip-front location makes it a people-watching fave plus the half-price appetizers — think nachos with big chunks of juicy chicken — and frozen drink and beer specials are perfect for unwinding after a long day of playing video poker.  Happy hour here takes place from 3 – 6 p.m. Monday to Thursday.

If you’re in town on December 3, you can help Cabo Wabo celebrate their 1st Anniversary.  If you look and sound like Sammy Hagar (whoa), you might want to join in on the Karaoke contest happening that night.  Check out the Cabo Wabo party details here.
