Mandalay Bay+Wagyu Burger = Date Lunch

This semester my schedule of teaching and Pat's work schedule don't exactly mesh together well so we have been trying to have lunch together on Tuesdays.  Many Tuesdays this semester Pat has had meetings so we often find ourselves racing to get something quick to eat before I have to head to school to teach my class.  One Tuesday a couple weeks ago though his meeting was cancelled and we were actually able to have a nice relaxing date lunch.  We decided to go over to Mandalay Bay, walk around and choose a random place for lunch.  We went to Fleur by Hubert Keller. 

Apparently this is a place that you should have reservations for, even on a Tuesday at 11:30am.  They didn't have any seating in the dining room but did have a table in the lounge that we decided to go for.  So we sat in these low comfy chairs with a small table between us.  We both ordered the Wagyu Burger.  It had bacon, wild mushrooms, and gruyere cheese on a toasted potato bun.  The burger was very good.  It was juicy and didn't even need any type of condiments on it.  I was surprised as I usually like some type of mayo or something on my burger but you definitely didn't need it on this burger.  Pat and I both admitted though that while the burger was delicious we couldn't tell that it was Wagyu beef.  It didn't taste different than a regular high quality burger. 

So the verdict:  We really liked Fleur, we would definitely go back, and would probably just go for the regular burger next time.
