This massive pan-Asian spot at the Miracle Mile Shops combines Korean barbecue and Japanese teppan under a single roof. Whichever you choose, try the gamja jeon: a fresh potato pancake served with house soy sauce, $15.

Eggslut

While eggs are the star of the show at this grab-and-go at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, the signature dish sets one atop potatoes. The restaurant’s namesake dish, known as the “slut,” is a cage-free coddled egg on top of house-made potato puree, cooked in a glass jar and topped with gray salt and chives, accompanied with slices of baguette, $11.

Stripsteak

Some of the best French fries in Las Vegas are actually free, as long as you’re purchasing dinner at Michael Mina’s Mandalay Bay steakhouse. The restaurant’s amuse bouche is a trio of duck fat fries, each with its own dipping sauce: rosemary and onion fries with onion ketchup, truffle fries with truffle aioli, and smoked paprika fries with mustard crème fraiche, free with meal.

EDO Gastro Tapas & Wine

To create his patatas bravas, chef Oscar Amador layers 10 to 12 paper-thin slices of potato into long, thin “sticks,” then bakes them, chills them and, finally, fries them until crispy. They’re served with a traditional brava sauce of spicy tomato mayonnaise, $8.
