BLT Burger Opens In The Mirage
The latest gourmet burger restaurant opened up inside the Mirage. It’s called BLT Burger and it located just inside the south entrance. It’s located where the tiger habitat used to be. They closed it last year in order to make room for the new restaurant.
It was a bit of a controversial move as the tiger habitat was one of the longest running and best known free exhibits in Las Vegas. But after 4 years since the Siegfried and Roy show closed due to injuries suffered by Roy its relevance was lessened. The tigers were moved to the back inside the Secret Garden so they didn’t totally disappear.
I haven’t had a chance to go check the place out yet but it seems similar to the Burger Bar in concept. High end hamburgers made to your liking. If it’s anything like the Burger Bar it’s gonna be good!
They also re-did the entryway leading into the entrance. For some reason they did away with the moving sidewalk and put in a paved walkway. It’s not concrete though it’s more of a terrazo like you have around pools. Weird choice if you ask me. But it looks nice.
In more Mirage updates work continues on the revamp of the volcano. It’s still under construction as are the waterfalls and ponds that surround it. They’re still saying late 2008 to reopen. I’ll let you know when they have a set date.
