I have a particular way of eating that typically involves avoiding vegetables. Those are my own ethics.

So, just so I’m totally clear. You ordered what is a regular burger with regular orange cheddar, the only thing being different is the horseradish mustard (which you could have gotten on the side to taste for a decent review, instead of judging based on how you thought it sounded), the color of the lettuce (yes, there is more then just iceberg and romaine), and the fact that they named a very common onion instead of just saying ‘fried onion’? I was impressed that you ordered the meat “ordering my burger strangely”, meaning medium, but wonder about this ‘un-vegan’ thing. You seem very focused on the doneness of the meat, and how different things sound or look different. Where are the questions on the ethics of the restaurant?

I’m already back from Vegas, but that does sound awesome.

While you’re there, try the Prime Rib French Dip at Raffles Cafe in Mandalay Bay if you get a chance. It’s about half a cow’s worth of thick-sliced, dripping rare roast beef on a large roll that’s just crusty enough to soak up the au jus and the horseradish sauce that are served on the side. Goooooood memories…
