Sick in Vegas?

I was curious as to what places have made you sick because of eating the food there. List all places, whether in a casino/hotel or not. I'm not trying to ruin casino business or anything, just curious. For me, it was the American Grill at the Rio. My girlfriend and I were both sick pretty bad and ruined our 3 day stay.
In my 20 trips, I have been fortunate enough to not have gotten sick from eating anywhere in Vegas. ( Knock on wood).

My cure for being sick from a hangover at the Rio was to go to the cafe (Don't know if it's still there) that is in the wing where the Penn & Teller showroom is a Monte Cristo sandiwch (Thick white bread made into french toast with ham & swiss cheese in the middle, sprinkled with powder sugar, fries and a big glass of milk.

After eating that and playing some slots for a couple hours and I am ready to party again.
That's funny, the All American Grill just got a 5 (highest) grade for their hamburger.
Texas Station buffet. I had some chili there a few years ago that didn't quite taste right. It wasn't. It was classic food poisoning. It came on fast, roared out both ends, I was sure I would die. After it completely cleaned me out and I was slowly able to re-hydrated, it was over in 36 hours.

I never got food poisoning anywhere...but I did get sick after eating at Billy Bob's Steakhouse @ Sam's Town. I just ate too much =)

Wow!! Glad you made it through. I know how that feels, I have been there. Ass on the toilet, head stretching over to the shower to puke. Been there, done that and it sucks big time.
Grand Lux last year, I was leaving to drive home the next morning went over to pick up a few things the wife wanted from Sephora, played a few slots, grabbed a burger and fries. OMG I had to leave the next morning on the 1,900 mile drive home alone. I had to stop seven times before I got just to Kingman. It took me three days to get home I was sick for a little more than four days. I have never been so sick and miserable in my life.
Imperial Palace buffet made me sick to my stomach. Didn't actually throw up but it had me sitting in my room for the afternoon.

If it didn't taste right, why did you finish it? That's the good thing about a buffet, take a bite and if it don't taste right....eat something else.

Now the Boardwalk buffet was a different story....the orange stuff would make you just as sick as the purple or green stuff. I hope they had good toilet paper in the rooms there because their guests had to be crapping like crazy.
Never got sick, but did feel a little queezy on the flight home on one of my trips last year. Cat napping during that flight (and declining the in flight meal) seemed to clear it up, so I blamed in on lack of sleep during the trip.
