Last weekend, Twitterer HeartBreakTheeo was thrilled to see that the Paradise Garden Buffet at The Flamingo gave out little vodka bottles during brunch. But we're not that surprised. This is Vegas! Of course, they are going to hand out little vodka bottles with breakfast.

Actually, this is probably a part of the buffet's "Bloody Mary" brunch which runs from 7am to 4pm and costs $24.99 per person. The first Bloody Mary is included but you have to pay up for the rest. You can, however, mix your morning hangover cure to your own delight as Paradise Garden provides the toppings and mixers.

Aside from alcohol, there is actual food at Paradise Garden. In the mornings, you can expect to find ade-to-order Omelets, several breakfast meats, buttermilk biscuits, waffles, country-fried potatoes and freshly baked pastries. The breakfast of champions indeed.

Make It Spicy: The Bloody Mary Cart at Encore's Society Cafe

The Bloody Mary drink is a standard morning-after drink offered everywhere in Vegas. Yes, everywhere. It seems that anyone waking up in Vegas on Saturdays and Sunday can't function without it. (That and Starbucks. We prefer Starbucks first, Bloody Mary second.) So it's no surprise that the Bloody Mary has been elevated to a sort of art form in town. Since it's the first drink after a hard night out, it has to be just right.

At the Society Cafe inside Encore Las Vegas, there's a traditional Bloody Mary on the menu (The Society Bloody) and a Bloody Caesar--which is a blend of tomato and clam juice--along with bellinis and blood orange mimosas to complete your total Hair of the Dog offerings.

But since this is the splashy/flashy Wynn/Encore, or Wynncore if you prefer, there has to be more pizazz served with these offerings which is why the Society Cafe has a Bloody Mary cart rolling around to guests.
