I think the problem with online reviews is that people who have bad experiences tend to rate businesses more frequently than people who have had good experiences.
I agree. Those with bad experiences use the rating system to vent their frustrations. Those with good experiences just move on and eventually return to the establishment for more good service/food.
I agree. You rarely hear the good stories in reviews (apart from Norma's lol).
Very true and when someone new wants to check out the place, all they see is the negative reviews. Plus, most of those guest don’t even speak with a manager to make it better or not satisfied with any apology or comps.
If you want a decent chicken wing go to Wing Stop
@@otrebla8944agree and disagree. There's tons of good to great reviews also. The issue is that most of the bad reviews are exaggerated in that they're really closer to a 2 or 2.5 star review but they do 1 star out of spite. The reviews that I personally trust the most are the 3-4 star reviews as well as the lack of 1-2 star reviews.
I looked up the "high ratio cake liquid". It's a liquid shortening that is used in cakes that have a higher sugar to flour ratio, to produce a moist and tender crumb in the cake. It also produces a silky batter and does well going from shelf to freezer and back again. It is also an emulsifier so it makes the batter come together more quickly, giving high yield bakeries time to make more product. Just in case anyone wanted to know but didn't want to look it up!
Ty i am one of those that was curious but didn't want to look it up .... I'm kinda lazy
@@brandiedeaton7910 You're most welcome. I'm lazy too, but too curious to not look it up! LOL
Went to the taco place in Fremont last week and the birra ramen and tacos combo was pretty darn good. My local buddy said the reputation of that place wasn't good but we went, we ate, we conquered and enjoyed.
As always above and beyond to bring us great content!!!
Loved this video Norma , really fresh new and Entertaining. You’re doing an awesome job . Michael from Ireland 🇮🇪 🙌
Great video Norma and great idea! Do more of these.
I like your positive vibes. No restaurant is perfect and servers have their days just like everyone else.
love this idea, Norma!
Norma, love your videos. You and vegasstarfish are my fave vegas content creators. I enjoyed the difference of opinion on the cake.
Love this segment!
We are in Canada and i have been going to Vegas for almost 2 years now. I have been to every casino and many eateries & buffets. You really have to do your research before you go especially on food and things to do. I find that Norma's reviews are pretty darn accurate & spot on. You can save yourself alot of money and disasters by checking out all her food & places to see reviews. I always make it a must go to In & Out Burger as we don't have them in Canada & their burgers & their Spread sauce are so good. Where can you go in Vegas for $20.00 for 2 people for 2 awesome burgers with fried onions - 2 Fries & 2 Drinks !
I love the style of this food review episode!!!
HIGH RATIO CAKE LIQUID - This high-ratio shortening can hold more sugar and liquid than regular shortening, making it more temperature stable. It helps icing hold more air after whipping and it helps keep cakes moist giving them a finer smoother texture. All professional bakers and confectioners use this.
Thank you Norma and your Cake Boss review.
Very entertaining. Good one Norma.
I've been to tacos and miches also and food was pretty good! Great job, Norma! 🌮
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
Your reviews are beautiful.
Thank you for being real for the REAL WORLD.
May God bless you and keep you safe and well.
Hi Norma! I've been to about 20 Hooters in Wa.,Ca.,Or.,Nv.,Fl.,Hi. and B.C. Canada. Glad to see you give them a try!
A friend and I decided to go to Hooter's as a joke. It was closed because of filth. Hollywood Bl.
Like these type of reviews. Fun!
Vegas starfish is giving Norma a look right now
Love Norma’s smile
Great video Norma
You do a fabulous review of everything you do...love your exuberance and sense of humor - expect to see you as a reporter or newscaster in the future. ❤
The last thing I would do when I’m in Vegas is by to go to cake vending machine to get my dessert. There are so many good dessert places around Vegas. I would not step foot in Oyo let alone eat at Hooters. The hotel has bad reviews. Usually go for a slightly Higher level of eating establishment since I’m in Vegas. It doesn’t have to be sit down can be a grab and go. I really do enjoy the food courts that the resorts have been having I like the many different kinds and ethnic food, and you can pick one thing from one place and get something else different from different place.❤ Thank you Norma
You really nailed that pizza review
I love your videos Norma. Don't know how you keep coming up with these things. The Nectar shop on your live looked great, No wonder your skin looks so good.
I appreciate you and thank you for making content.
Nice review. The coke the server said the only had only 355 ml, not 500ml, the bottled also comes in a six pack they probably ran out. This coke is made in Mexico, and tastes better because it comes in a glass bottle. It is made with cane sugar. You can buy these at El Super. Love your goofiness and bloopers.
Funny because I used to go to that Hooters all the time when I lived in Vegas because their wings were the best. Not sure what is was about them, but man 10/10. I remember service always being pretty decent as well. They may have just had an off day or overly busy when he went. It happens.
It’s crazy that back in the day it was the Hooter’s Hotel and Casino. It was kind of a nice place to hang out but started to deteriorate as the years passed. Then OYO purchased the property.
you could have bought it for $20M plus debt after 2008....that's what the owners prior to OYO did. I cant even guess how much that hotel is going to be worth now.
Been to Vegas 7-10x the past 3 years for 3-4 days each stay. I love going around trying different places / restaurants. I would check reviews every time and follow recommendations at times. I think any place could receive bad reviews any day. Things could happen on that instant or maybe just coincidence that day. I would doubt one or two bad reviews but when there is a trend in their bad reviews it usually is a red flag. So far i have not been to a place that deserves 1 star, thanks to Norma and other youtuber recommendations. Btw one place i tend to come back to every time i am in Vegas is Oyster bar in Palace station. Long wait but worth it every time.
Your cake machine segment was hysterical! 😂👍
Our daughter works in a restaurant in North Jersey. She told us that the staff goes above and beyond whenever someone is recording their meal. They even give them bigger portions. My hubby and I tried using a tripod and our phone at a place here in south Jersey. They gave us the above and beyond treatment. We might try it again.
Totally trying that 😂
Great video, Norma.
I plan on staying on Fremont St. my next visit. I just eat when I get hungry when I am there.
I would go behind or to the side of the Strip.
These little hidden gems are mostly great.
You looked absolutely adorable in this.
definitely try sorry not sorry ice cream! they were amazing! the butter cake and the pistcachio brittle ice creams were so good
@trinitycoxvasconcelos5230
Definitely, I usually travel solo. I usually end up having meals and drinks with women who are tourists as well.
I don't think I met local people. Besides the workers and they usually are working.
Both the chicken wings & pizza 🍕 looked delicious 😋 !
That pizza looks so delicious! Thanks for sharing beautiful lady 😘😘😘xox
Norma, not sure if I went to any one-star eateries in Las Vegas two years ago--your reviews are the only ones I trust. That cake in the machine looks good--it might be better with a little nectar. Don't ever think your videos aren't creative--you always do a wonderful job. And, you always have nice skin! Take care!!!
the cake was AMAZING! totally worth it! from my understanding they restock them weekday mornings. we got ours at the las vegas airport on a monday morning.
I LOVE the atm cake! It’s so good, I’ve never ever had a bad piece! Also, if there’s no forks, go to in n out or a food court & ask for one! 😊
#teamcakebosscake
Agree! Love the double chocolate !
You are one brave person to go to one star reviewed places but it just goes to show you can't always trust one star reviews. I've been to five star reviewed restaurants and had a bad experience too.
I think the "Welcome to Hooters" sign at Oyo was the old sign when it was the Hooters Hotel & Casino.
The Cake Boss vending machine. I always buy a slice of cake at that machine my first day in Las Vegas. Eat a little daily. I have a sweet tooth and this keeps me from buying expensive desserts daily knowing I already have a dessert waiting in the room. The trick is to let it thaw out at least 30 minutes (not the 15 as suggested by the machine). The rainbow cake is OK (vanilla cake) but my favs are the chocolate or red velvet.
Thanks for taking one (a bunch) for the team Norma.
In basically any industry, you will only find 1 or 5 star reviews. Those are the experiences/mentalities that were incentivized to leave a review.
lol that was a very interesting and entertaining one Norma! I would definitely give the pizza place and the mexican place more than one star, because they looked pretty good, at least on camera! 🙂
I've done Tacos & Miches a few times, and it's *exactly* what I need at 12:30am. As for that vending machine cake, letting it get to room temp is KEY!
Question is did they know who you were and you received better service? Maybe if you do this again go in a disguise and see if you get the same results.
I’d bet $5 she gets comped more than average
Yeah, might need a Norman appearance.
The camera always helps too
The answer is an obvious YES. She gets free food for pandering basically everywhere that she goes.
I love flats and my husband likes the drum sticks so works out great for us ❤
I like your installment, not sure reviewing reviews, but was enetertaining!
19:55 That's weird! I guess they changed the rules! I used to see tons of people walking around Fremont Street with beer cans or beer bottles! I guess they changed it!
Norma you can't go incognito,you are a Vegas celebrate.
Yeah she loves to celebrate. Celebration time 💃
Hello Norma :)- As a local to Las Vegas for over 13 years and I always refer your channel to the tourists :)- You would probably do a good JOB as a "HOOTERS'S" girl based on your Personality
It'd be funny if Buddy Valastro was in Jersey monitoring this in real time! Just decides to pop in your post....
You Ms. Have grown on me the more I watch I'm seeing that you bring positive vibes to a world filled with "all the smoke" ❤❤❤❤. Ty for the insightful videos.
Please do top 5 pizza in downtown Vegas and on The Strip
Hooters wings are legit if you like breaded wings, as well as consistent wherever you go.
Jorge just did a video on the cake machines as well...I'm not buying food out of a machine....ever
@safromnc8616 YOU never bought candy bars or cookies from a vending machine?
@electrictroy2010 cake gets stale and dry quickly. Candy lasts forever
The casino used to be called Hooters too. I went once, parking garage was sketchy and casino looked very old.
Happy Birthday Norma. You are so sweet and gorgeous. You bring a smile to my face with all your videos.
The signage is like that because the hotel used to Hooters Hotel before OYO lol they pretty didn't change anything since besides the name of the hotel.. I do like hooter wings and fried pickles.. sad the closed the one by us in the southwest
Great looking wings, it's been a long time since I've had Hooter-Wings. I am a believer that there is no such thing as a bad pizza... just pizza that is 'less-good'. I've never had a pizza where I would have rather eaten the box 🍕🍕🍕... that's just ridiculous. I apply the same theory to cakes! Happy to hear the cake slice was decent. I will bring my own fork 😁😁😁 - I may have to test one out next week while in LV. Great video as always!
Norma, so your gourmet on a budget experience. From one extreme to another. One thing about Vegas, variety!
I replayed the part where you got scared from the cake machine. So hilarious
Awesome job Norma drop a line and I enjoy your live stream yesterday
I stayed there years ago when it was Hooters Hotel. The food is a hit or miss for me.
I've been to the Pho Saigon 8 on Silverado and have read some really negative reviews there, several of them 1 star. The few times I've been, I've really enjoyed my time. The only negative I'd say would be the waitstaff being a little unattentive, but in all honesty - I personally prefer that. I like being left to eat in peace. Would love to see more of these, though! Interesting to see some new places.
Your Hooter's girl cardboard try cracked me up.
I remember when it was the hooters casino the restaurant was kinda in the middle of the floor.
Props to you, Norma, on trying out these 1 star establishments. I would never step foot in or step foot in a 1 star business, especially if I’m on vacation. I’m sure the Nectar was more enjoyable than those 1 star eateries
Hooters at oyo has great crispy chicken salad..if you can handle waiting 2 hours
Happy to see the Hooters trip went well, there used to be so many and now they are hard to find. Maybe try the improved Slots A Fun if you can please.
Alcohol on Fremont has to be in a plastic cup and most restaurants and casinos will give you one to carry the remainder of your drink. The Fremont casino even has plastic cups by the doors that you can help yourself to. We kept the cups and refilled as needed, buying cold drinks at ABC. Much cheaper than the $9 beers at the casinos!
I think the "Welcome to Hooters" sign at the front of the casino is left over from when the whole hotel/casino was branded Hooters.
I got one of the Cake Boss cake slices in the airport and it was pretty good, but I couldn't eat the whole slice by myself. It was too much sweet.
Tacos n Miches was just fine when I went. Pizza D'Italia was not; it really was like flavorless cardboard (and I was sober when I ate it). I still haven't had a vending machine and I don't know if I want to. Thanks, Norma, and congrats on the new house.
I’ve been to that Hooters many times. It’s hit or miss but when in Vegas you gotta take the gamble 😁
Whooooooooooooaaaa!!❤
One anecdotal experience does not negate another. I count on Yelp for overall odds of having a positive experience and I've found them to be generally reliable. Why make up your mind you're gonna leave a positive review BEFORE you go?
I stayed at the Oyo 2 years ago (the hotel was not really good), but the food at Hooters was very very tasty !
No bottles/cans on Fremont Street Experience ordinance is definitely enforced these days as a precaution; especially now that there are middle east conflict protest occurring across the country. It's good to see plenty of police/security are on hand during the busiest time of the evening.
Ever tried Taco Y Taco? The best quesadillas in the valley 😋🍷 Cheers.
The Welcome to Hooters sign at OYO is because it was a fully themed Hooters hotel casino at one point.
Hello Norma,
I once did a one star review on Romano's Macaroni Grill.
Norma the best
I haven’t been to that one but the fried pickles are really good at others I’ve been to.
Hooters in Galveston,TX was great. Norma is cute too!
my husband doesn't like sweets and we LOVE the Cake Boss vending machine cakes. The chocolate is my favorite and the red velvet is my husbands favorite - they are a MUST every trip. PRO TIP: always check the forks BEFORE getting the cake because they are often empty :/
Definitely made the guy behind you at hooters with the him in the camera view. Ate and left quick
I haven't had a Squirt since I was a kid! I'll have to get one next time I have Tacos!! Thanks, Fun Video!
You are delightful!😍
Another great video, thanks for sharing. Looking good Norma. 👍🏻
The Red Velvet cake piece was amazing when we got it, i had no complaints about Cake Boss Cake. I still gotta try the pizza machine (if its even still at Linq?)
Great review on the cake , Vegas fish was hating
I looked it up. High ratio cake liquid is liquidized 100% fat shortening
You awesome girl!! I like your videos😊
OYO was the hooters hotel! i ate at that hooters a few times!
Great idea to do this Norma. I’m convinced that while there certainly are problem establishments and products, there are far more posters who think it’s cool to talk shit.
i bought 2 cake slices at the airport and both were good the following day - maybe Vegas Starfish should eat them without the fork! 🍰🍴
Oyo is here in BR but it’s forbidden as it’s mostly a place for the homeless
The tacos at the last place are good
10:37 i LOVE vegas starfish
I've been to that Hooters and it was OK. But their wings are very good. The signs saying Hooters might have been left over from when the whole resort was called that.
Pizza looked pretty good.
You just proved that one person's opinion will not be as same as the next person. So try it yourself. Thank you Norma.
Simple syrup is cake liquid its normally to use it
Pizza D Italia is fine n ok.i like it good fare price.my son n I really enjoy the pizza.my son is very picky with pizza n it's a must stop on annual las vegas trip.for pizza it's better then the pizza we've tried on many trips to Vegas.not as good as Canadian pizza tho.lol
We should set up a gofundme for you to do international restaurant reviews - a CDMX taqueria or a michelin starred restaurant in Paris.
Went to many Hooters around the country including the first Hooters in Clearwater FL. Never had a bad experience. I eat less pizza out. Pretty much disappointed when I do. Of course I lived in NYC which had some of the best pizza in the world in the old Italian neighborhoods. Cake from a machine...well probably not for me. They have Krispy Kreme in Vegas after all. Whoa you can't drink on Fremont! I thought that was the idea with all the outdoor stuff. Weird...for Vegas. Anyway those tacos not so great. Find a family run taco place. We used to go to one on Sahara off the strip. Best taco experience ever.
At my favorite point in time this used to be the hooters hotel
