cab question & gold coast question

My husband and i are leaving in a few hours for vegas (staying at flamingo). we%26#39;ve been 3 times before and always taken shuttle, not realizing that we probably should have been taking cabs. Which road should i tell the driver to take to get to flamingo quickest?

also i read recently someone suggested the dim sum restaurant at gold coast. what is the best way to get there from flamingo? is it walkable? husband and i do like to walk, but nothing too far of course?

Thanks :)

You don%26#39;t need to tell the driver anything, he/she probably knows where the Flamingo is. Some people are afraid of a few extra dollars on the fare, and I don%26#39;t blame them! So simply telling the driver ';Flamingo hotel, don%26#39;t take the tunnel, please'; should be all that%26#39;s necessary.

Ping Pang Pong at Gold Coast is a good restaurant. It%26#39;s really not walkable, just take a taxi.

Bill%26#39;s, right next door to the Flamingo, has a free shuttle to the Gold Coast at their side entrance on Flamingo Rd. It runs every twenty minutes in both directions up until around midnight.

laurafifi: If you don%26#39;t want to take a taxi, simply walk over to Bill%26#39;s (side facing Ballys) and take the free shuttle...

oh a shuttle! do you know when it runs??? thanks for the tip!

The shuttle starts at 9:15 every morning and runs about every 20 mins.

I bekieve it runs from 9:30 am to about 12:30 at night...I have taken it many times and it is great...runs about every 15-20 minutes..just be sure to read the sign on the door, as they run shuttles also to the Orleans from that spot...

oh great! thanks so much!

I have never eaten the dim sum lunch at the GC but I have eaten the food there late at night when I didn%26#39;t want to get in the car and drive to another Chinese restaurant ( I am talking about after midnight). The food isn%26#39;t bad at all. Many people have said the dim sum is good but I usually go the Cathay House on Spring Mountain for dim sum. I would be interested to hear how it is at the GC.
