Felipito’s Breakfast Burrito Review – Not As Good As I Remember

Felipito’s Mexican Food, 1325 E Tropicana Ave, Las Vegas, NV 89119

Order: Breakfast Burrito with Ham, Egg, Cheese, Salsa.

This was my third time to Felipito’s in the last 2 years. Every time Kaycee and I are in the Vegas area we make sure to pit stop at Dutch Bros coffee then we head over to Felipito’s for breakfast.

The past two times, from what I can remember, the breakfast burritos were amazing. Kaycee would get the huevos rancheros.

We had been talking it up to Kaycee’s family ever since we had the idea of doing a family trip to the Grand Canyon. I think we may have built up the hype a bit too much.

Don’t get me wrong, the ham breakfast burrito was delicious but it was also very greasy. I felt like I had grease dripping from my chin after it and that feeling stuck with me the rest of the day.

Kaycee’s family all seemed to enjoy the breakfast burritos we scarfed down in the car driving to the Grand Canyon so I think it was a successful pit stop.

Also, next time Kaycee and I are in the Vegas area, you can bet that we will continue to go to Felipito’s for breakfast burritos. It’s a tradition at this point.

Until next time!

Jason Aldean at the Five Points Amphitheater

Jason Aldean returned to Southern California after having to cancel his concert the year before. 

Kaycee and I had tickets to see Jason Aldean in 2017, which happened to be a week after the Las Vegas shootings happened.  With that show being cancelled, as soon as he announced that he would be back in the area, we jumped on the tickets. 

Luaren Alaina and Luke Combs opened for Jason Aldean and they both did a great job. This was actually the second time in the last year Kaycee and I had seen Luke Combs. The other time being at the UCI Bren Events Center.

Aldean played all his great hits including Big Green Tractor, Dirt Road Anthem, Drowns The Whiskey and more.

He also played a song near and dear to my heart, Fly Over States. This was my anthem when I was playing baseball at Valparaiso University in Indiana. My time out there gave me an appreciation for a part of the country that largely is viewed as just a fly over state. Part of the lyrics go…

“They’ve never drove through Indiana,
Met the men who plowed that earth,
Planted that seed, busted his ass for you and me,…”

Kaycee and I had a great time and would love to go see him again. He’s my favorite country artist. 

Until next time!
