Rented a car and went to Hash House a GoGo, which is located in the Plaza Hotel and Casino in downtown/old town Vegas. The Plaza is the typical downtown Vegas casino. Not as flashy or nice as the ones on the Strip, but it had a nostalgic charm to it.
Touted as “Twisted Farm Food and known for their huge portions (made famous by the Travel Channel show Man vs Food), we wanted to try it for brunch.
We order the signature Chicken & Waffles and the “Crispy Hand Hammered Pork Benedict”
Yes, those are steak knives stuck into the stacks of food to keep them together on the plate. The fried chicken was two huge fried breasts and comes with waffles embedded with whole strips of bacon, all topped with a creamy sauce and comes with maple syrup on the side. The hammered pork tenderloin is 18 ounces, battered and fried, and served over a bed of mashed potatoes and topped with BBQ cream sauce. Needless to say, neither of us came anywhere close to finishing. In fact we took the food with us on our flight home later that day and had enough for 2 more meals worth of food. The scary part is, the waiter told us the dinner portions were even larger than the brunch portion. Yikes! Next time we are sharing one dish. If you go in a large group, plan on about 1 plate per 2 or even 3 people.
