I don't keep any local places secret - if they're good they deserve more business. A few of my favorite tidbits:
"Suicide fries" at Naked City Pizza on S. Arville. The wife likes their wings also.
Best falafel I have ever eaten: Amena Cafe and Bakery on Decatur a couple blocks North of Sahara. The rest of the menu is really good, too. Try the baclava for dessert....
Excellent Indian lunch buffet, good dinner menu: Mint Indian Bistro on E. Flamingo.
Coffee? Now that The Beat downtown has closed the top choice is Sunrise Coffee on E. Sunset. Top shelf espresso, cool hippie vibe.
Deli/Bagel/Breakfast spot: Bagel Cafe on Buffalo Drive just off Summerlin Pkwy.
And of course, no trip is complete without a couple stops at Ronalds Donuts on Spring Mountain. Super nice owners, apple fritters are to die for....
Safe travels and good eating!
