The debauchery and nightlife of Nevada has influenced its food culture in one of the most wonderful ways imaginable. By combining breakfast classics with a timeless dinner main course, the 3 A. M. steak and eggs feast has become one of the most popular meals in Nevada. The meal also known as 'steggs' became a mainstay for hotel workers, night owls, and tourists alike due to early morning/late night diners looking for something filling enough to keep them going and to subconsciously keep them aware of the rising sun.
While you might be able to find steak and eggs on the menu of your local diner, Nevada made the meal option relevant across the nation as an originator to the once bizarre combo. These days you might not see anyone order this meal regularly but if you happen to find yourself in Las Vegas, you'll notice the classic steggs are being ordered a mile a minute.
