There was something amazing about being a kid and going to McDonald’s. Your parents would swing through the drive-thru, or better yet dine in and let you play on the PlayPlace that was for sure cleaned regularly. You would order a Happy Meal, and your day would be made.

Some grown-ups still order Happy Meals, but now they are getting one of their own. Sort of.

McDonald’s has a collab with streetwear brand Cactus Plant Flea Market for the Cactus Plant Flea Market Box. It’s definitely got Happy Meal vibes, just wider.

You can get a Big Mac or 10 piece McNuggets plus fries and a drink, but you also get the “box” experience. Opening the box will make you smile like you’re 7. You’ll also get a toy inside!

The toys… are… interesting. There’s Grimace, Birdie and the Hamburglar you remember from your childhood, but they are all four-eyes. No, literally, they all have four eyes. They match “Cactus Buddy“, the Cactus Plant Flea Market mascot, who also sports four eyes.

The collaboration begins October 3rd with boxes expected to go pretty fast. Plus they’ll have additional merch you can win on the McDonald’s app including shirts and hoodies. More deets will drop here on the 3rd.

Cactus Plant Flea Market, or CPFM, has been worn by the likes of Kanye West and Pharrell Williams. Yet, is still low key enough to not have a Wikipedia page.

McDonald’s is collaborating like crazy lately

This isn’t McDonald’s first high profile collaboration. In just the last several months, the brand has teamed up with BTS, Travis Scott, Saweetie and J Balvin selling slight variations of existing menu items. Until they bring back the Arch Deluxe, we will not be satisfied.

Top Chef Driven Fast Food Restaurant In Las Vegas

The Las Vegas Strip is inundated with fast food, causal dining restaurants and little hole in the wall places to eats. Very similar to New York City, the Las Vegas Strip can be intimidating with all of the hustle and bustle.

While you’re on journey of exploration through Las Vegas Blvd stop by Top Round which can be found in the heart of Las Vegas. They are located at 3782 S Las Vegas Blvd Las Vegas, NV 89109 which Vegas locals may recognized as the former Bruxie Original Fried Chicken & Waffle Sandwich. “The Park” which is the outdoor dining commons can be found in between the Park MGM and T-Mobile Arena but on the same side of T-Mobile Arena.

The beef on weck hot spot started in Los Angeles, California back in June of 2013, serving up 100 percent pure ground beef. Five friends, Anthony, Fretz, Jamie, Noah and Saukok, who grew up in St. Louis and Buffalo eating real beef sandwiches wanting to keep the dream alive. Their success speaks for itself opening a second location in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Las Vegas is the third Top Round fast food restaurant to open and we are ecstatic to see what the locals think about their iconic “cheese wizz.”

Their menu is expansive with a little something for everyone. Their house specialties features slow-roasted beef sandwiches, hand breaded chicken sandwiches, curly fries, tater tots and frozen custard. They haven’t forgotten their non meat eater customers with fresh salads and grilled cheese. Their websites states that their roast beef is “free of additives, fillers and preservatives.”

Their menu item “horse & hole” is presented as a sesame bottom bun face down, slow roasted ground beef, roasted mushrooms, provel cheese and horseradish cream enclosed with the top of the sesame bun. Most of their slow cooked roast beef sandwiches range from nine dollars to 15 dollars. Their all natural chicken breasts are “hand-breaded, marinated in buttermilk and pickle brine.” If you order a “crispy tenders box” comes with three big tenders, curly fries, pickles and comeback sauce that will pack a punch. The mega box comes in at a whopping $14.95.

If you like to get messy you want to check out their “Dirty Fries.” This popular menu item comes with curly fries with gravy, provel cheese, caramelized onions and round sauce. For $6.99, you can’t beat it!

Lastly, if you don’t order the ice cream custard did you really go to Top Round? They have plenty of concrete combinations like “Pretzel PB Crunch” which is Reese’s Pieces, Pretzels and Chocolate Syrup. They honestly put traditional fast food to shame.

Their hours of operation are:

  • Sunday – Thursday: 12 p.m. – 10 p.m.
  • Friday – Saturday: 12 p.m. – 11 p.m.

    Las Vegas is the quintessential hub for all things luxury hotels and casinos. They set the standard for hospitality in the nation being one of the top in providing exceptional service.

    The Bellagio Las Vegas Hotel & Casino is no exception to being one of the most extravagant hotel and casinos on the Las Vegas Strip with it’s Europe-village ambiance, upscale shopping and fine dining restaurants.

    The building was inspired from a small “city” in the province of Como which resides in northern-central part of Italy called Lombardy. Bellagio is located on Lake Como providing inspiration for the architecture.

    Walking in and around the Bellagio, one feels as if they have been transmitted into an Italian renaissance with the villa archways and beautiful gardens.

    Another local favorite is Sadelle’s Café. If you’re not familiar with the hidden gem found in the back of the Bellagio atrium, let us introduce you.

Found on Bellagio’s website, “I want to give my guests a culinary journey that they didn’t know they wanted. And at the end of the meal, they are glad that they came and are already thinking about the next trip.”
