In our last Hollywood Casino spotlight we promised to bring you the scoop on awesome food at Hollywood Casino. Let’s dig in! Well, what can I say? I like to eat, and on my latest trip to Tunica, Hollywood Casino's Fairbanks Steakhouse seriously hit the spot.  My biggest shock occurred when I traveled upstairs from the casino floor and stepped in the entrance. I felt like I had completely left the casino and gone somewhere entirely different. If it had not been for the windows that overlooked the casino floor, I might have had to go back downstairs just to…
