The reason for my prefacing soliloquy (get to the news!) is because it's somewhat rare that our team comes across a menu that is noteworthy for more than a few items. And it's even more rare for us to schedule a 'celebrity' chef interview and actually like the footage that came out of it. Our conversation with Chef Rick Moonen and the corresponding meal that followed at RX Boiler Room at the Mandalay Bay did both. If you, the reader, even made it this far in the written editorial without immediately scrolling to the food pictures - you're about to come across Chicken Pot Pie Nuggets, Buffalo Fried Oysters, Bacon-Wrapped-Bacon and Squid SpaghettiOs to name a few.
