The FReeper FRugal Gourmet can find affordable breakfast and lunch restaurants both on and directly off the Strip in Las Vegas.

You may want to eat in our conference's Treasure Island hotel or at one of the other emporiums where fabulous buffets are spread with every goody imaginable, and all you can eat! Things like jumbo shrimp, king crab legs, prime rib carving roasts just for starters. Prices are reasonable and most average around $13-15 per person.

Or you may want to stroll down the avenue to take in the fascinating sights and sounds, and to grab a bite of lunch. You'll find plenty of casual, inexpensive eateries, like the Big Dogs Cafe, the Canal Street Grill (authentic New Orleans food), the Country Inn (down-home cooking such as hamburger and turkey sandwiches, poke chops and chicken pot pie), and the Rib House (traditional Western and Cajun cookin').

What's your fancy? Asian, Cuban, Caribbean or Indian treats? Or Italian, Mediterranean, Mexican or South Western? How about French, American, vegan (oops!), seafood or sizzling steaks? Maybe a pizza joint or an ice cream parlor?

Whatever it is, and whatever you can afford, you'll find it on the Strip. The town really caters to its hungry visitors and many, if not most, restaurants keep their prices low so people will return and hopefully put some nickels in their nickelodeons!

At night, before turning in, perhaps some frosty Margaritas under the stars at an outdoor bistro where you can watch and wonder at the greatest light show on earth, the neon fantasy that is the Las Vegas Strip.

Hi Leni. I'm so depressed that I'm going to have to wait several months to attend our conference. I'm looking forward to this so much. Thanks for your comments about the different types of food available on the strip. With airconditioned shuttles that go between hotels, people can travel up and down the strip finding exactly the food they want. But then most of our meals are included in the registration. Take care.

I've always been partial to those 99 cent 1lb hotdogs down at the Westward Ho :)
