A country finale Summer is not quite over. The Country Cabana Concert Series at Flamingo’s GO Pool wraps up this week with a Sept. 26 performance from platinum-selling multi-instrumentalist, singer and songwriter Chris Janson, who just happens to be the youngest living member of the Grand Ole Opry even though he has just two studio albums under
his belt. In addition to his two No. 1 singles “Fix A Drink” and “Buy Me A Boat,” the 32-year-old from Perryville, Mo., is known for writing Tim McGraw’s smash “Truck Yeah” and Justin Moore’s hit “Off the Beaten Path,” and playing harmonica on Lee Brice’s “Beer.” It seems like Janson does it all. A big Vegas country pool party? No problem.
Join the Club Last year at this time, Culture Club frontman and ’80s pop icon Boy George was talking about a potential Vegas residency show. “Growing up, I read a lot about Cher’s shows in Vegas and how she used to change every 11 minutes. I probably won’t go that far, but that’s a good starting point,” he told me. “If I do a show in Vegas, I want to be able to treat the audience like friends, to have that kind of warmth.” The plans have not come to fruition just yet but Culture Club is headlining The Life Tour at the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center on Sept. 29, also featuring The B52s and the Thompson Twins’ Thom Bailey.

When the bandleader of bandleaders Paul Shaffer returned to his special engagement at Cleopatra’s Barge at Caesars Palace this month, he brought along his former boss. David Letterman jumped onstage for some reminiscing and storytelling in between songs, just the latest in a line of surprise guests at Shaffer’s lounge spectacular, which returns Oct. 11-13. The NFL hasn’t landed in Las Vegas just yet, but the first pro football weekend of the season brought some of the sport’s biggest stars to town. Hall of Famer Jerry Rice partied at Tao Nightclub at The Venetian after dining at Scotch 80 Prime at the Palms. Did you catch The Crown Jewels engagement at Park Theater from Queen + Adam Lambert? The stars of the new Queen flick Bohemian Rhapsody did. Rami Malek, who stars as Freddie Mercury, along with fellow actors Gwilym Lee, Joe Mazzello and Lucy Boynton, witnessed the rock spectacular before partying at a VIP reception at Park MGM’s Juniper Cocktail Lounge hosted by Jonnie and Mark Houston, the Los Angeles-based hospitality aces who are opening the hotly anticipated On The Record nightclub at the evolving resort on New Year’s Eve. Gloria and Emilio Estefan may not have made the trip to Las Vegas to see their Broadway musical On Your Feet! at the Smith Center, but they definitely sent their regards. The legendary couple donated $25,000 to Keep Memory Alive in honor of Gloria’s father, who died of multiple sclerosis.

Motownphilly is Back
Best-selling R&B trio never disappoints Four Grammy Awards, nine American Music Awards, seven Soul Train Awards, more than 60 million albums sold ... those are just some of the accolades from one of the best-selling R&B groups of all time. From 10 to one, just like in “Uhh Ahh” from their debut album Cooleyhighharmony, Boyz II Men—comprised of Wanya Morris, Nathan Morris and Shawn Stockman— count down before stepping into the spotlight. The trio run through some of their biggest hits spanning more than two decades, including the tearful, mellow “It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye

to Yesterday” and the beautiful dedication to mothers, “A Song for Mama,” in addition to “On Bended Knee” and “Water Runs Dry” from their Grammy Award-winning album II. Getting serenaded by these three is no myth; after all, they are known to have a few sexy slow jams or two. During “I’ll Make Love to You,” long-stemmed red roses are given out to lucky ladies, while their live rendition of “End of the Road” gets more up close and personal with in-the-audience action. In a trip down memory lane, the fellas take it back to their high school days in Philly, singing
The Five Satins’ “In the Still of the Night”—a capella style. The Temptations’ “My Girl” and Smokey Robinson’s “The Tracks of My Tears” make the set list as Boyz II Men pay homage in a moving Motown tribute. But no Boyz II Men show is complete without the hip-hop, feel-good sounds of “Motownphilly,” a track that depicts where their rise to fame all began. Philly is here to stay. –Chanelle Hayes The Mirage, 7:30 p.m. Sept. 23 & 2830, starting at $49.99 plus tax and fee. 702.792.7777

The Last Bow ... Maybe Jennifer Lopez has a lot on her plate these days. Aside from raising twins and overseeing a business empire, she has completed work on Second Act, and is both executive producer and a judge on World of Dance. And although her residency ends this weekend, Lopez has a lot left to give in these shows.
16 9.23.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
She’s a natural Strip headliner, and All I Have is thematically structured as a career retrospective, with Lopez segueing from Vegas glamour to her gritty beginnings as the stage transforms into a back-to-her-roots urban setting for “I’m Real,” “Feelin’ So Good” and “Jenny From the Block.”
Then Lopez kicks the kinetic excitement up for a trio of Latin numbers before turning Zappos Theater into a giant nightclub for the dance music finale featuring “Waiting for Tonight” and finishing with “On the Floor.” The audience is left more breathless than Lopez herself. –Matt Kelemen

Let’s Dance Again The delay of the release of Fall Out Boy’s latest album Mania by four months hasn’t stopped the Chicago pop-punks from filling seats. The album hit No. 1 upon its release in January, eight months after lead single “Young and Menace” made its debut, but Fall Out Boy was well into its latest tour by the time the new songs were all available as a set. By that time it was clear audiences were definitely happy to be able to hear “Sugar We’re Going Down” and “Dance, Dance” live again. The new album is a departure from the band’s last several studio efforts. Kanye West’s influence is apparent. Pete Wentz has aptly referred to the new music as a “palate cleanse,” but Fall Out Boy hasn’t cleansed its live sets of hits. Kicking off with “Disloyal Order of Water Buffalos,” the band blazes— Wentz’s bass literally shoots flames—through a set of nearly 25 songs on the latest tour leg, concluding encores with “Saturday” from 2003’s Take This to Your Grave. –Matt Kelemen

Papa Vinny prods the crowd to warble the chorus of Dion’s “Teenager in Love” before they segue into The Beach Boys’ “God Only Knows,” Jay and the Americans’ “Cara Mia” and Elvis’ “If I Can Dream.” Closing out with Chuck Berry’s “Johnny B.

Creative Chaos Swedish melodic death metallers Dark Tranquillity have been together for nearly 30 years, with three-fifths of the band coming together in 1989 under the name Septic Broiler. Then rhythm guitarist/now lead vocalist Mikael Stanne was 15 when he joined up with guitarist Niklas Sundin and drummer Anders Jivarp in the fertile metal proving grounds of Gothenburg, Sweden, changing the band’s name two years later. Along with newish bassist Anders Iwers and longtime keyboardist and electronic programmer Martin Brändström, Dark Tranquillity is currently enjoying a career high based on the strength of 2016 album Atoma and a wellreceived appearance at extreme music festival Rock al Parque in August. Atoma was three years in the making. Stanne and company have followed their own musical muse since establishing Dark Tranquillity, an evolution in development that led to Jivarp contributing most of the musical ideas for the latest album and collaborating with Bränd-

ström on material the rest of the band would carefully hone. The finished work encapsulates everything fans have come to love about the band, with alternating soft and hard vocals,
muscular rapid-fire rhythms and wicked guitar work that indicate Gothenburg’s godfathers of death metal are very much a creatively inspired band. –Matt Kelemen
Humor That Hits Home Menopause the Musical can lay claim to being the truest ladies’ night in Las Vegas. The longest-running scripted musical on the Strip is for ladies by ladies, exploring themes of bonding and maturing through parodies of classic songs. Bonding is important to the Menopause experience. The Professional Woman, Soap Star, Earth Mother and Iowa Housewife collide at Bloomingdale’s while competing for lingerie, but find common ground while recounting hot flashes, night sweats and libidinous extremes. The audience is “the fifth girlfriend.”
Sometimes the audience becomes “the sixth girlfriend,” as Cindy Williams (Laverne & Shirley) is a regular guest performer. The songs remain the same though, as Aretha Franklin’s “Chain of Fools” and Beach Boys’ “Good Vibrations” are given new contexts. A dance party breaks out at the end. For men, it can be an educational experience, but for women, the humor hits home due to the familiar territory. –MK Harrah’s, 4 & 7:30 p.m. Mon. & Sat., 7:30 p.m. Tues.-Fri., $50.15-$75.38 VIP plus tax and fee. 702.777.2782
2.4.6 Wagyu Beef Slider BLTS Celebrity chef Robert Irvine wowed Las Vegas and the world when he opened Robert Irvine’s Public House at Tropicana in 2017. His unique spin on comfort food keeps customers coming back for more, but like any culinary trailblazer, Irvine is never content to rest on laurels. He’s just introduced several new menu items, and you’ll want to start with his wagyu beef slider BLTS, which can be ordered in servings of 2, 4 and 6 and combine pickles, crispy onions and PH sauce.

SPOTLIGHT How did you feel it went the first night of the residency earlier this summer? The crowd was a little tighter than normal, but I think it was a mix of people who didn’t know what they are in for. Tonight (the night of his Aug. 31 performance), I have a lot of fans coming out. When you know what you’re getting into, it tends to work well. It might have been a mix of casino people and not stand-up people. No show is ever the same. You just go and do your thing. How are you going to get the show to where you want it to be? Realistically it’s going to take a couple of shows. I’m there monthly. To really get it where you’re firing on all cylinders—this goes there, that goes there—it’s just an evolving show. It’s fun now, but the more you do it and the more you understand the room and the dynamics—the stuff I did last show I might not do the next show because it didn’t work. But then you keep adding to the things that do work and you have a tight ship. Why is Hard Rock the right fit for you? The brand of the Hard Rock and my humor both have an edge to it. The room is intimate. It’s great for what I do. I could be at a big casino, but if the room is huge and not conducive towards stand-up, it kind of falls flat. The style that I do, that intimate feel works for it. Does it affect your residency that you don’t live in Las Vegas? Pros and cons like anything. I know once the show gets to where we would all like it to be, I think the next move would be me being here and really committing more dates to it and doing it. It’s going to take time to build a little. I don’t want to bite off more than I can chew and do lots of shows every single week when you have to establish it first.
Q&A: Colin Kane
The Wolf is ready to tear into Las Vegas With his easy-going personality, it’s hard to believe Colin Kane is an insult comic extraordinaire.

Rock Hotel residency, Colin Kane: The Wolf. And just like canis lupus, Kane is evolving. Las Vegas Magazine’s Jason Harris recently caught up with Kane, who returns on Sept. 28, to discuss the evolution of this residency, which he eventually wants to shoot as his first comedy special.
Why should people see you now? You’re going to have a good time if you can take a joke. That’s something I can guarantee. If you enjoy some dirty jokes and some insult comedy, you’re going to have a great time. I can back it up. It’s always cool to see something before it gets really big, too. I know that with the right people around me, especially the Hard Rock behind me and the team around me, and if I stay focused, it’s gonna be even better. Regardless of when you come, it’s going to be a great show and The Wolf is gonna get you.

The Joke’s the Thing “I don’t think I could stab somebody because I’m really bad at Capri Sun.” That’s a great joke and an excellent example of what Daniel Tosh can do at his best. He hits on both the thinking person’s turf and the darkness where most are afraid to go. The comedian has been a favorite of audiences—and other comedians—for more than two decades. Now, 43, Tosh still packs a punch. There is an edge to jokes like this, “I dated a teacher in high school. Yeah. It didn’t make me cooler. And a lot of you are like, ‘That’s ’cause you were homeschooled.’” He pushes it even further, adding, “OK. Valid point. It doesn’t mean I’m a bad person. It just means, statistically, I’m smarter than you are. And I had game.” Tosh is known for his show on Comedy Central, Tosh.0, in which he shows insane and wacky viral videos and mocks them relentlessly. The format has been so successful that knockoff shows have come and gone many times since Tosh.0 debuted in 2009. But his bones were made onstage and he remains a force there today. –Jason Harris The Mirage, 10 p.m. Sept. 28, 7:30 p.m. Sept. 29, starting at $59.99 plus tax and fee, 16+. 702.792.7777
Double the Entertainment Donny and Marie Osmond love what they do. They’ve said it many times before when asked about the secret of their longevity, how they approach their show with as much enthusiasm and energy as they did as teenage variety show superstars, and how they’ve managed to turn a six-week engagement at the Flamingo in 2008 into a decadelong run. This month marks the 10th anniversary of the residency, a production structured not all that differently from their weekly broadcast on ABC from 1976 to 1979. Fans may find themselves transported back to a time when Donny and Marie were peaking as youthful

entertainers, but their subsequent solo careers also inspire the show. You’ll get Marie’s “Paper Roses” and a taste of her operatic chops. You’ll get Donny’s “Soldier of Love” and the saucy dance moves he demonstrated on Dancing with the Stars. You’ll also get the elements that have made Donny and Marie’s residency a well-deserved hit: a live band, biographical video footage, and the duo’s trademark all-in-fun bickering. By all appearances, they’ll have a home at the Flamingo for years to come. –Matt Kelemen Flamingo, 7:30 p.m. Tues.-Sat., $95-$260 plus tax and fee. 702.777.2782

Metal Handiwork A show featuring Ratt and Sebastian Bach would have been one of the hottest bills of 1990, and it would have been quite a bit pricier than the free one that the two acts are giving at the Fremont Street Experience. Both Ratt and Bach’s previous band Skid Row produced some of the biggest hard rock anthems of the ’80s and early ’90s, and songs like Ratt’s “Round and Round” and Skid Row’s “18 and Life” have become pop-culture staples. Ratt began as part of the early ’80s Sunset Strip scene in Hollywood. The
band has gone through numerous lineup changes, but today it’s led by original frontman Stephen Pearcy and original bassist Juan Croucier, who are planning a new Ratt album for next year. Skid Row formed a few years later and Bach left the band for a solo career in 1996 (he’s since released three solo albums). Together, the two acts represent some of the best of the hair metal era—and one of the top concert deals in town. –Josh Bell Fremont Street Experience, 9 p.m. Sept. 29, free. 702.678.5600

Before The Killers, before Imagine Dragons, before Panic! At the Disco, there was The Crystal Method, one of the first popular music acts to come from Las Vegas, and when Scott Kirkland and Ken Jordan started performing in the late ’80s and early ’90s, they were pioneers, spinning their electronic dance music in any venue that would have them. They might have moved to L.A. in order to chase success, but still named 1997 debut album Vegas. That album spawned hit singles “Busy Child” and “Trip Like I Do.” Although Jordan retired from music in 2017, Kirkland carries on The Crystal Method name and legacy, still doing his hometown proud. –JB Las Vegas South Premium Outlets and Tix4Tonight photos by Greenspun Media Group

The sophisticated evolution of dining in Las Vegas didn’t just happen. It was driven by culinary pioneers, skilled visionaries who took chances and let their creativity shine … and the results have been astonishing. Chef and restaurateur Hubert Keller embodies that adventurous spirit, and his Mandalay Bay institution Fleur is emblematic of the city’s evolution. Once a classic fine dining destination with heavy French influences, Fleur has morphed into a vibrant and varied restaurant anchored by graceful service and a menu of small plates from around the world. Keller has always operated on the cutting edge of the culinary world—he was the first to
put a DJ booth in a restaurant in Las Vegas, and likely the first chef to take a spin behind those decks—and Fleur’s cuisine demonstrates his ongoing quest for bold flavors and exotic offerings. Up-and-coming chef de cuisine Robert Camacho is Keller’s lieutenant in the kitchen, ably executing everything from a classic steak tartare with whole grain mustard and cornichons to the new “L.A. style” galbi, beef shortribs marinated with Korean flavors. Those are just two of the small plate options you can use to construct a shareable meal dabbling in global flavors or order as appetizers for a more traditional meal. Fleur serves steaks as well as vegetable side dishes, but before you make that choice, don’t skip the white onion truffle veloute, a silky soup simultaneously fresh and indulgent. Burrata and heirloom tomatoes with juicy watermelon, aged balsamic vinegar and basil is an ideal option for this season between seasons, a more creative version of the popular caprese. Crisp hamachi tacos or yellowtail ceviche will cure your raw fish fix while tender, grilled Spanish octopus is served with pickled peppers and a duo of sauces, romesco and chimichurri, for a Spanish-South American flavor explosion. If you’re ready for something more substantial, the Fleur Burger is always ready, wagyu beef with grilled mushrooms and caramelized onions on brioche. More richness awaits with the braised veal shank osso buco, with tangy charred baby tomatoes and peppers cutting through the fork-tender meat. Shifting to the lighter side, the very in-demand Ora king salmon is served with a bright citrus salad and artichoke purée and satisfies like a steak; or you can get one of those, preferably a perfect 8-ounce grass-fed filet with au poivre sauce. Lucious Angus short rib is served with a creamy potato purée. For dessert, there’s really only one way to go—Fleur is renowned for its soufflés, a sweet cloud of perfection available in a few seasonal flavors. Open for weekend brunch, weekday lunch and daily happy hour (from 4-6 p.m.), today’s Fleur offers a variety of dining experiences and that’s a big reason why it remains so popular. Mandalay Bay is loaded with deliciously different dining experiences, but there’s a reason—several, actually—that so many different Vegas visitors keep coming back for more.

Gabriel Hewitt
A-list manager oversees A-list stars The other day Gabriel Hewitt hung around Brad Pitt and Jennifer Lopez. The day before that, Britney Spears, Johnny Depp and Will Smith, and before that, George Clooney, The Rock and Gwen Stefani. Hewitt is the general manager for Madame Tussauds at The Venetian, and every day he gets to hang out with all the waxfigure stars one can imagine. “It’s a true-life fame experience the minute you walk in,” Hewitt said. “It’s interactive and an up-close-and-personal experience.” And, in the less than two years since Hewitt joined the wax museum, he’s created two more fun experiences that have become instant hits. “Two figures that I helped make happen were Steve Aoki—he actually came out and caked his own wax figure (and) the other is the Khloe Kardashian figure—it’s turned into one of the best Instagram moments in the place,” Hewitt said.
32 9.23.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
Hewitt has taken his 20 years of experience in the food and beverage industry—he’s been both a bartender and manager of restaurants and bars in and around the Dallas area—and has applied his knowledge of customers wants and needs to the Madame Tussauds attraction. He’s also found success with another new portion of the wax museum he recently launched—the Hangover Bar. Adding to the already-in-place Hangover Experience, based on the comedy movie franchise, he created all the cocktails and designed the bar, which re-creates the rooftop of Caesars Palace where the movie’s shenanigans begin. And Hewitt isn’t done yet. “The 2019 wax figures are going to make a major splash with the figures we’re selecting. We’re also doing an in-memory figure—we’re going to bring them back to life!” –Kiko Miyasato
Winding your way through Madame Tussauds is one celebrity photo-op after another, but, one of the coolest is definitely The Hangover Experience and new Hangover Bar. Hang with Alan, Phil and Mike Tyson while sipping on the fun themed cocktails like the popular Tiger’s Blood. The sweet, fruity-tasting cocktail is mixed with Bacardi and Malibu rums, blue curaçao, grenadine, lime juice and club soda. You can also order fun shots like the 3 Leg Monkey and the Wolf Pack, which is a straight shot of Jägermeister, and there are beer and wine selections, too. –KM

Burt Reynolds’ Sept. 6 passing sent a shockwave through an entertainment world that mainly remembers the film star through hit movies of the ’70s and ’80s such as Smokey and the Bandit. In recent years, Reynolds had become a beloved figure in the car collector community, driving souped-up Pontiacs onto the auction block at BarrettJackson events and receiving standing ovations. He was to appear at this year’s annual auction in Las Vegas, but the event will now pay tribute to Reynolds in addition to offering
42 9.23.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
vehicles he owned, made famous, or that pay homage to iconic cars he’s driven. “Burt first came to our 2016 Scottsdale (Arizona) auction and very quickly became a good friend of Barrett-Jackson,” says BarrettJackson Chairman and CEO Craig Jackson. Reynolds appeared at Barrett-Jackson auctions last year in Scottsdale and Palm Beach, then returned to Palm Beach this year in April. “He was very gracious with his time and it was amazing to see not only how he treated all our fans and everyone at Barrett-Jackson,
but how incredibly well-received he was by our guests at each auction.” Jackson says the outpouring of messages the organization received from both fans and employees in the days following Reynolds’ death “truly exemplifies how much people loved and admired him, and how close we felt to him as an organization.” Reynolds brought a number of his vehicles to auction at events in recent years, connecting collectors with their pasts through muscle cars from the late ’70s and early ’80s, and their re-creations.

The four cars Reynolds planned to sell in Vegas remain on the docket. Several are re-creations of vehicles from his movies, including a Bandit-inspired 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, a 1978 Firebird Formula homage to Hooper, and a 1987 Chevrolet R30 Pickup Cannonball Run re-creation. A 1984 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am used to promote the Tampa Bay Bandits, his U.S. Football League (1983-1985) team, is also for sale.

Other highlights on the block in Vegas include a 1976 Alfa Romeo Spider owned by Muhammad Ali, a 1971 Mercedes-Benz owned by Elvis Presley and a rare 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder. “We also offer numerous automotive lifestyle experiences at our event, including the ‘Behind the Hobby’ collector car symposiums, Motor Trend’s live stage and thrill rides,” says Jackson. “We hope people will come and enjoy all the experiences we offer for everyone ... from the hardcore automotive enthusiast
to parents looking for an event to enjoy with their kids.” In addition to acquiring auction vehicles at Barrett-Jackson, you can also try to win a 1965 Shelby Cobra Superformance MKIII Roadster Replica by earning 500 M Life Rewards slot or table games points. Until noon on Sept. 30, one drawing ticket will be awarded for every 500 M Life Rewards slot points and one for every 500 points in theoretical winnings earned on table games. Tickets must be in the drum by 2 p.m. Sept. 30.

The D brings the party atmosphere to downtown Derek Stevens, owner of The D and the Golden Gate properties, remembers when the Downtown Events Center, a outdoor venue he opened in 2015, was described by some as a parking lot. “We took another real big step forward this year when we turfed the entire venue. I don’t think anybody in the last 12 months has called it a parking lot anymore,” says Stevens. Stevens might not agree, but he’s certainly had more success than failed attempts since he started doing business downtown in 2006, when he first invested in the Golden Gate, the oldest hotel in the city. With his brother, Greg, the Michigan native eventually acquired, renovated and expanded that historic Fremont Street property, which led to the purchase of Fitzgeralds and its wholesale evolution into The D. The DLVEC rests right behind The D, essentially functioning as the rejuvenated casino’s entertainment venue. But Stevens has taken a big, broad step beyond that development by
44 9.23.18 9.10.17 LasVegasMagazine.com LasVegasMagazine.com
harnessing the power of sports. The D aligned itself with the Vegas Golden Knights through corporate sponsorship very early on, before the inaugural season began and the team became a true phenomenon. The DLVEC hosted hockey watch parties throughout the season that attracted thousands of rabid local fans seeking to connect with the team and their community. “I remember growing up when the (Detroit) Red Wings would get into the second or third round of the playoffs, all of a sudden there would be nights where you’d normally have massive traffic jams but the freeways would lighten up. Everybody wanted to either get home or get to a location to watch the game together; it had that big of an impact on the community. We saw that here, too. The Vegas Golden Knights had the unique ability to change people’s schedules.” The DLVEC will be hosting more Golden Knights watch parties this season as well as bringing back its Sunday NFL Downtown Watch Zone
events. The facility has been upgraded, too, adding a makeshift pool with a swim-up bar, a classic Vegas amenity. And Stevens has another huge Downtown project on the horizon: Building a brand new casino resort along the Fremont Street Experience corridor on the former site of the Las Vegas Club. The company purchased the property almost three years ago and snagged many of the surrounding buildings as well, including the Mermaids casino and Glitter Gulch strip club, eventually demolishing everything for a fresh start. Stevens is keeping details to himself but early plans call for a 777-room hotel tower, a 1,488-space parking garage and a 117,000-square-foot casino space. “It’s been a long time in Las Vegas since anything new was built, but I think some of the projects coming up in the next couple years remind me of decades ago when there were so many new reasons to make people come to Las Vegas,” Stevens says.

ENTERTAINMENT
Cherish the Sound
The Association has been going strong almost as long as rock ’n’ roll itself has been around. The band officially formed in 1965, when the original lineup started gigging around L.A., and The Association quickly went on to become one of the biggest hitmakers in ’60s rock, with songs like “Along Comes Mary,” “Cherish,” “Windy,” “Never My Love” and “Everything That Touches You.” The legacy of The Association has lasted long enough to embrace further generations, and the current version of the group features family members of departed early members, with the late Brian Cole’s son Jordan on keyboards and guitar, and the late Larry Ramos’ brother Del on bass. The group is a living embodiment of rock history, carrying on a tradition that shows no signs of stopping. –Josh Bell
DRINK
Local Favorite Much like a certain famous Boston Bar, Huntridge Tavern is one of those establishments where everyone seems to know everyone else. It’s one of the city’s longeststanding bars, and serves up some of the cheapest beers and shots of Jameson around. It’s a quintessential part of the Downtown experience, and by the time you leave, you’ll probably feel just like a local yourself. –Ken Miller 1116 E. Charleston Blvd. 702.384.7377

Although the menu at breakfast and lunch restaurant MTO Cafe is concise, choosing can be a Herculean task. On the breakfast front, pancakes are practically their own food group here. The chefs get creative with the bacon pancake dippers—fluffy, elongated flapjacks with crispy bacon innards served with a peppercorn maple syrup. The lemon poppy seed pancakes with blueberry-ginger compote may have you rethinking pancakes forever. Looking for salty over sweet? Don’t overlook the mash browns, mashed potato-stuffed hash browns. Crunchy on the outside and creamy on the inside, they’re a novel take on the ubiquitous breakfast side, so good you might find yourself ordering them for lunch. In our opinion, they go best with the deep-fried chicken, smothered with country gravy. Lunchwise, MTO’s Hangover Burger is not only one of Downtown’s best, but maybe one of the entire Las Vegas Valley’s top burgers. Eggs may be the burger accoutrement du jour, but the Hangover Burgers are not to be missed, cooked over-medium, providing flavor without undue messiness along with bacon and an addictive special sauce. If you’re not in a burger mood, dive into MTO’s great sandwich selection. Strong selections include The Bob, a flavorful combo of arugula, roasted tomatoes, jack and cheddar cheese, and honey pecan mustard on top of grilled chicken, and the B.L.T.A.E., a wonderful twist on the BLT which adds two sunny side up eggs, avocado and basil pesto. Come for breakfast. Stay for lunch. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff 500 S. Main St., 8 a.m.-2 p.m. daily. 702.380.8229
