Q:
As previewed last week, we're starting production on the new (eighth) edition of Eating Las Vegas 2020 (Eating Las Vegas 2019 can be found here), our annual restaurant guide. For those who don't own a copy, the guide has full descriptions of Las Vegas' "Essential 52" eateries, as picked and independently reviewed by the city's top food writer, John Curtas.
The book also contains chapters on notable steakhouses, buffets, and French and Chinatown restaurants, along with numerous briefly annotated lists of "Additional Recommendations" categorized by specific types of food and beverages: burgers, buffets, desserts, Italian, pizza, Mexican, tacos, sushi, chain restaurants, special diets, wine drinking, and late night.
This poll is a survey on any additional categories you'd like to see us include in the 2020 edition of ELV. Note that these are additional categories to the ones already in the book and listed above, so when you don't see Chinese, steakhouses, burgers, pizza, buffets, etc. in the choices, that's why.
Thanks in arrears for all the suggestions from last week's poll preview, many of which we've added to the selections, and in advance for helping us improve our annual food guide.

Analysis
Thank you all for participating in this poll, which will help us improve Eating Las Vegas 2020.
The results, of course, speak for themselves, but we can tell you that we'll enjoy checking out the latest barbecue joints. The food courts are easy to include, as we've reviewed Block 16 at the Cosmopolitan, Eataly at Park MGM, and even the new spread at Palace Station (Salud and Mumfresh) in LVA since they opened in the past year.
As for delis, we can include all the favorites that have been around forever (Weiss, Bagel Cafe, Bagelmania, Carnegie, Greenberg's, etc.), plus the new Sadelle's at Bellagio (though we were entirely underwhelmed by that one).
And yes, brunch, romantic, and outdoor venues will enhance the coverage of places to take dates and loved ones.
All in all, a good haul! Thanks again.

I've been trying for several years if there is a casino salad bar that does NOT spray preservatives ("stay fresh" "stay white" on their salad greens and root veggies (carrots, radishes etc. In Europe it's forbidden and it was wonderful to be there I am allergic to it and am miserable when I'm in Vegas. Choice is don't eat it anywhere or eat it and get sick.Anybody know?
