on the scene WITH BROCK RADKE
He has this process of taking a song and sitting with it as long as he needs to in order to make it feel right. It sounded good when I left it but when I picked it up, it was great. It definitely has a feel, that good retro but still current vibe. I was in love with the end result. Do you have other favorites from the album? Yes, for different reasons. I would never put a song on a project I didn’t love, so choosing singles is a difficult thing for me. “You Are Loved” came to me in a dream. I was singing it in a dream and I woke up and recorded exactly what I was singing. I had some things going on earlier that day, seeing people deal with loneliness and depression and I was just stuck on the idea that telling someone you love them, such a simple thing, does so much for people. When I woke up I sang the melody into my phone and sent it to my producer.
Tamia
Singer reflects on fame and family Talk about a big day: On Sept. 7, the same day Grammy-nominated singer Tamia released her seventh studio album, Passion Like Fire, her husband, Grant Hill, was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. With the induction complete, the focus is on the R&B artist’s latest work and the new tour she kicked off last month. She stops at the House of Blues at Mandalay Bay on Oct. 20, and took the time to talk to me about her 20-plus years in entertainment. A lot of you and your husband’s fans look up to you as a sort of marriage role model. What’s that like? Thank you. I think we are just living our lives, although we do
12 10.14.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
some interviews as a couple here and there. What we try to do is encourage everyone to keep your eye on your marriage and your relationship, because what works in one may not work in the next.
Was creating Passion Like Fire a different musical experience for you? It always starts with the songs. But I wrote the most on this album, more than any other, and that’s become more important over the years. It begins with what I want to talk about— simple conversations turn into great songs. First single “Leave It Smokin’” has that great retro R&B sound that seems to be surging today. It was a lot of fun. (Producer) Salaam Remi put that beat together and we wrote the song.
Does your expansive body of work make it easy or difficult to put together your live show when so many songs have so many different meanings? When we were working on the song “Deeper,” someone asked what is the difference between Tamia now and Tamia then, and that (informed) the writing of that song. It’s just experience. You get older and see life is precious and friendships are precious and anything can happen, and you want to connect on a deeper level. The great thing about having a new album is choosing new songs I absolutely love and seeing how they come to life on the tour. It’s always great to be in this time when the album is new and you get to bring that new music out to see how it connects.
Around the Strip Brock Radke is an award-winning entertainment reporter who has been covering the city since 2000, and interviews key movers and shakers on his All The Vegas podcast, available at allthevegas.com.
His Dream Role Mike Epps is a designated scenestealer. The 47-year-old comedian and actor has been making the most of his film and TV roles since the late 1990s—one of his first TV gigs was a quick spot on The Sopranos—and his distinct style of silly, often outrageous humor keeps him among comedy’s most sought-after performers. Now Epps, who published his first book, Unsuccessful Thug, earlier this
year, is ready for a new challenge. He’s been cast in the upcoming Richard Pryor biopic Is It Something I Said? as the legend himself. The film is being written by Bill Condon (Dreamgirls and Chicago) and is shaping up to be one of the most intriguing movies of 2019. Get a sample of the talent that got Epps the job when he takes the stage at the Hard Rock Hotel on Oct. 19.
One of a Kind He became a sensation on America’s Got Talent in 2016 and played his first Vegas shows at the Flamingo in 2017. Now Tape Face has his own room at Harrah’s Las Vegas and has quickly created something truly unique on the Strip, a show as charming as it is hilarious. Imagine Buster Keaton as directed by Tim Burton. Sometimes he’s mischievous and sarcastic, others he’s amiable and animated, but Tape Face is always silent and full of surprises. There’s no trickery here, just old-fashioned creativity and ingenuity as he guides you through a world he’s constructed where no one knows what will happen next. Audience participation is mandatory at the House of Tape, where this innovative performer takes the stage Tuesday through Sunday.

Jennifer Lopez went all out for her finale at Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood Sept. 29. She was joined onstage by Ja Rule for “I’m Real,” their hit collaboration from 2001, and by LL Cool J for “All I Have,” the 2002 track that also served as an appropriate name for J.Lo’s two-year Vegas residency. Among the stars in the audience: Sean “Diddy” Combs, Tiffany Haddish, Kobe and Vanessa Bryant, Vanessa Hudgens and model Ashley Graham. The show set an all-time one-night ticket revenue record among Las Vegas residency shows of $1.43 million, and the glamorous after-party was held at Mr Chow at Caesars Palace. Model and actor Tyson Beckford is back onstage at Chippendales The Show at the Rio for an unprecedented fourth guesthost engagement. “There’s not a time I’m in Vegas, even when I’m not doing the show, that I don’t come by to see the guys, my brothers,” he said. The Tyson Takeover continues through Nov. 3. Actor and comedian Seth Green, aka Scott Evil, became the latest celeb to check out Opium at the Cosmopolitan recently. I’m guessing he enjoyed the act with the amazing tiny dog Percy, who performs with acrobat Christian Stoinev and puts Mr. Bigglesworth to shame. Big Chicken Shaq, a reality show following basketball legend Shaquille O’Neal as he fulfills a dream of opening a chicken restaurant, debuted on Facebook Watch this month. Get ready to sample Shaq’s grub when the restaurant opens Oct. 23 across from the Hard Rock Hotel.

Shocking, Sexy and Sensational Outrageous variety show keeps audiences guessing Since Absinthe took up residency in the big white tent in front of Caesars Palace seven years ago, the outlandish and imaginative variety show has evolved from an upstart, buzzed-about entertainment experiment to one of the Strip’s must-see productions, an amalgamation of comedy, dance, acrobatics, burlesque and other aweinspiring acts that defy common description and keeps audiences coming back for more. How does that happen? Well, the production stays fresh and fast by incorporating new acts and undiscovered talent into its revolving repertoire. That formula assures Absinthe will keep getting better as it gets bigger. The irreverent host, The Gazillionaire, seems to get more raunchy and rowdy with every 90-minute run, guiding the audience through an array of sexy, stylish acts while his assistant,

Wanda Widdles, sometimes steals the spotlight with an even more offensive sense of humor. Other acclaimed performers that get the show rolling are Maxim, who builds a tower of readyto-topple chairs, and the Green Fairy, a seductive singer who heats up the Spiegeltent with a single smile. All are astounded by dangerously fast brothersister duo Billy and Emily England (who appeared on season 12 of America’s Got Talent), a favorite Absinthe act since the British siblings joined the show in 2015. Their edgy performance—certainly the most risqué and stressful activity ever to happen on roller skates—creates an exciting tension in the audience, but it breaks as soon as another family act hits the stage, equally talented twin tap dancers Sean and John Scott. Aerial expert David O’mer spins traditional bur-
lesque performance in an entirely new direction with his bathtub-based performance while the Silicon Valley Girls—one of the newest Absinthe acts—incorporate elements of dance, contortion and gymnastics while showcasing incredible strength and balance. With such a deep roster of diverse talent, Absinthe is almost an entirely different show every time you see it. Audience interaction only adds to that unpredictable and spontaneous feeling, always increasing the show’s reputation as one of the wildest experiences to be found in Las Vegas. Still crazy after seven years, Absinthe is ready to amp itself up all over again. –Brock Radke Caesars Palace, 8 & 10 p.m. daily, $99-$139 VVIP plus tax and fee, 18+. 800.745.3000 Ticketmaster

Can’t Forget About Them Scottish new wave rockers Simple Minds are responsible for one of the most iconic moments in cinema, thanks to the prominent placement of their song “Don’t You (Forget About Me)” on the soundtrack of John Hughes’ coming-of-age movie The Breakfast Club.
Formed in 1977, Simple Minds had other big hits during the ’80s, including “Alive and Kicking,” “Promised You a Miracle,” “Love Song” and “Belfast Child,” although “Don’t You” remains the band’s best-known song in the U.S. Led by founding members Jim Kerr and
Charlie Burchill, the band has toured and recorded consistently for the past four decades, most recently releasing their 18th studio album, Walk Between Worlds. Their music retains the expansive, cinematic quality on display in The Breakfast Club. –Josh Bell

Laid-Back Empire Jimmy Buffett is an institution, parlaying his brand of laid-back, beach-friendly folk-rock into a multipronged empire of restaurants, footwear, alcoholic drinks, retirement communities and even frozen foods, most bearing the Margaritaville name. That name comes from Buffett’s biggest hit, a 1977 single that for many years was his only mainstream musical success, even as songs like “Cheeseburger in Paradise,” “Fins” and “Volcano” inspire sing-alongs at his concerts. When superstar country artists Alan Jackson and Zac Brown brought Buffett onto country radio thanks to collaborations “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere” and “Knee Deep,” it converted a whole new generation of Parrotheads. Joining Buffett for his latest round of shows is Boz Scaggs, known for his 1970s hits “Lido Shuffle” and “Lowdown” and his musical mixture of rock and soul. Buffett is great at knowing what his audience likes, and the two veteran singer-songwriters should complement each other perfectly. –Josh Bell

Harmony and Hits Covering hits from yesterday and today, ranging from The Drifters’ “Under the Boardwalk” to Bruno Mars’ “Uptown Funk,” Human Nature has been wowing Las Vegas audiences with its Motown sound since 2009. The group’s newest show, Jukebox, is full of impeccable voices, spoton choreography and even a good dose of humor. One particular highlight is the group’s tribute to boy bands of the ’90s, made even more significant by the fact that Human Nature was one of the world’s first. –KM The Venetian, 7:30 p.m. Tues.-Sat., starting at $49.95 plus tax and fee. 702.414.9000

Hard Rock Mainstays Although Bullet for My Valentine began by playing Metallica and Nirvana covers when the founding members were still in college, and was lumped in with other nu metal bands when its self-titled debut EP was released in 2004, the Welsh band has gone on to surpass many of its peers, ending up as one of the top acts in current hard rock. With radio hits including “All These Things I Hate (Revolve Around Me),” “Scream Aim Fire,” “Your Betrayal” and “Bittersweet Memories,” Bullet have been staples of the mainstream rock charts for more than a decade, and they regularly perform at major hard rock festivals around the world. Vocalist/guitarist Matt Tuck and lead guitarist Michael Paget have formed the core of the band since its beginning in the late ’90s, and they released the sixth Bullet album, Gravity, in June of this year, debuting in the top 10 on both the rock and hard rock Billboard charts. “We’ve made an album which, in my eyes, is going to be the biggest
rock record of the year,” Tuck told Alternative Press when Gravity was released, and given his band’s history, there’s a very good chance that he’ll be right. –Josh Bell

Two Stars in One 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. Their residency is 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. 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 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
Stone Crabs For seafood lovers, there are no three better words in the English language than “stone crab season.” And Siegel’s 1941 at El Cortez is offering up the coveted crustacean from Oct. 19 until late spring. For $45 a pound, enjoy stone crabs with a Dijonnaise sauce, cole slaw and cottage fried potatoes. But you’d better hurry on over—Siegel’s 1941 begins serving at 5 p.m. every Friday and Saturday night until supplies run out. And run out they definitely will.

SPOTLIGHT longest of all the girls in the show but I’m getting up there. You grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area. Was your training experience growing up conducive to being a professional Las Vegas dancer in 2018? Oh, yes. It’s the only reason I’d be able to do it. I grew up taking ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, contemporary, just everything. I’m really grateful that I had a great studio, because they made sure I was a well-rounded dancer. Even so, as a kid you don’t learn to be in as sexy of a show as I am now. That came later in life, just with experience, doing more sassy choreography and things like that. For sure, my background was the only way I’d be able to make it this far. Ballet training goes a long way. How would you tell someone to prepare for employment experiences in Vegas? Just taking classes. Lots and lots of classes, and if your goal is specifically Vegas, definitely take heels classes, because they’ll work those heels in Vegas. What’s your role as a cast member? I am one of the dancers. We each do different tracks. The only set ones … there’s somebody who’s an aerialist. That’s one I do not do because I am not good upside down (laughs). Other than that, we kind of rotate throughout the show. We have a comedian (Sean E. Cooper) and a singer/ host, but within the dancers I could be doing pretty much any of the different numbers in the show. One night I might be in the bed number, one night I might not be. One night I might be doing the solo. It’s kind of all over the place because we do seven nights a week so, depending on which cast we have, things rotate. Definitely keeps it fresh.

There doesn’t seem to be a lot of cast turnover. Evidently Fantasy keeps everybody happy. Yeah, we really are. Fantasy has been like a family to me and I know all of the girls feel the same way. We are pretty close-knit, and it’s a hard show to leave. You don’t … there’s no reason to. We switch it up; you don’t get bored. We have an amazing producer (Anita Mann). She’s a living legend. She knows how we feel about everything and she takes great care of us, so a lot of our girls stay as long as possible.

Brunch Time Every dish laid out at Pronto by Giada’s new weekend brunch spread looks almost too good to eat. But your appetite will persuade you to dig in as many times as you’d like. The selfserve, multistation brunch is held in the restaurant’s bar and retail space. Let’s talk food. There’s an impressive meat and cheese station, plus plenty of breads, jams, olives and grilled vegetables. Situated next to each other are the carving station and the made-to-order omelet station. There’s a bagel station with a plethora of toppings, as well as fresh and indulgent cold-pasta options. The dessert station is truly a sweet tooth’s paradise, from Giada’s famous lemon ricotta cookies and slices of Italian flag cake to mini tiramisu and panna cotta. You can also order Counter Culture coffee and teas, or, for an additional charge, a mimosa, Bellini or Bloody Mary. –Kiko Miyasato Caesars Palace, 8 a.m.-3 p.m. Sat.Sun. 702.731.7266

Brutally Nice “The other day my girlfriend complained to me, ‘Chivalry is dead. Oh, Anthony, chivalry is dead.’ And I told her, ‘No, baby, chivalry isn’t dead. Chivalry is alive and well. You’re thinking of your mom.’” That’s the type of brutal joke that has audiences both laughing and cringing at Anthony Jeselnik. The 39-year-old comedian found that if he could make comics feel uncomfortable, then he would surely find his audience. While some find him offensive, he has remained true to himself and developed a loyal fan base with his verbal punches to the mouth. However, there is another side of the Pittsburgh, Penn.-bred performer. He

It says a lot about a person’s likability when they can go from that raw style of comedy to being the polished host of NBC’s Last Comic Standing. Even as a judge on Comedy Central’s Roast Battle, his nice guy beneath the tough exterior shines through. The versatile Jeselnik will likely be a staple for the Comedy Central brand for years to come. Besides his work as a judge, he just signed on to host a new talk show and co-host a podcast. And there’s always his stand-up, which will no doubt keep people laughing and cringing well into the future. –Jason Harris

Splashy Spectacle
Hard to Nail Down Calling System of a Down a heavy metal band just doesn’t cut it. They’re as much art as they are hard rock. They are better than nu metal, and prog metal doesn’t encapsulate the edge they bring to their music. “Chop Suey” is full of speedy lyrics and hard-as-nails vocal refrains. Meanwhile, “Toxicity” ranges from approachable guitar riffs (save for the thrashing solo) and a welcoming presentation of the verses to a rage-filled chorus that sticks in your head—“Disorder, disorder, disorder!”
After a three-year hiatus, the band, led by Serj Tankian, pictured, reunited in 2010. Live shows are energetic and mosh pits create a whirlwind from the opening song through the encore. The politically active unit—with an eye on making sure the Armenian Genocide is recognized— have been rumored to be putting a new album for some time.

The Vegas steakhouse is an institution; a rite of passage in a town where over-the-top is the norm. And amid the tropical environs of the Flamingo lies an old-school oasis: Center Cut Steakhouse. Comfortable banquette seating rings the room. Seasonal rotating oysters arrive on the half shell with a crisp champagne mignonette and fresh cracked black pepper, a perfect prelude to a luscious 10-ounce filet mignon, but there are plenty of cuts to satisfy everyone at the table. And do try to save room for dessert where a sublime vanilla crème brûlée awaits. –Jim Begley System of a Down photo by Milan Risky/Shutterstock.com Center Cut photo by Poppe, Magic Mike Live photo by Jerry Metellus
“O” (Bellagio, 702.693.8866) offers just the right amounts of humor, romance and surrealism, and never ceases to surprise no matter how many times you see it. It’s difficult to single out memorable highlights. The passionate performance of characters like the curious Philemon or the enchanting Le Travesti is just as striking as the cadre of “zebras” dangling from a swaying jungle gym-like suspension. Only a show with so much could feel so fresh after such a long run. –Brock Radke
More Than Men Magic Mike Live (Hard Rock Hotel, 800.745.3000) is much more than a typical male revue. The show perfectly meshes together insync choreography, steamy numbers, tons of comical sexual references and intense acrobatics. In between individual segments, the men come together and give ladies a taste of the champagne life, and also take a number from Justin Timberlake’s book with a classy suit-and-tie performance. –Chanelle Hayes

With the British Invasion in full swing, the show’s producers urged the band to ditch its name in favor of something more Britishsounding. They settled on The Buckinghams, which was one of several names suggested by … a WGN security guard. The quintet’s first single, “Kind of a Drag,” was a million-seller that rocketed to No. 1 in February 1967. The song that had topped the charts for the previous seven weeks? The Monkees’ “I’m a Believer.” The song that bumped “Kind of a Drag” after two weeks? The Rolling Stones’ “Ruby Tuesday.” In all, The Buckinghams had five Top 20 hits—and released four studio albums—from 1967-’68. The band played consecutive presidential inaugural balls in 2005 and 2009, the former in Washington, D.C.; the latter in their (and Barack Obama’s) hometown of Chicago. Led by founding members Carl Giammarese and Nick Fortuna, The Buckinghams are still delighting audiences across the nation decades later—including this week in downtown Las Vegas. –Matt Jacob Golden Nugget, 8 p.m. Oct. 19, starting at $29 plus tax and fee. 800.745.3000 Ticketmaster

The dynamic design, intoxicating ambience and exciting cocktails—not to mention a lightning bolt on the marquee—spark a fully charged evening of fun at Electra Cocktail Club. Entering the space, located off The Palazzo’s casino floor, there are many focal points to grab your attention, especially the 40-foot digital wall display. With an astonishing 70 million pixels, the moveable art piece changes and excites throughout the evening, with scenes that incorporate tons of mesmerizing colors.

Another impressive design element is the 40-foot-long Carrara marble mosaic and absolute black granite bar that offers great viewing options of the entire lounge. A great thing about Electra is that it offers tons of plush seating—sofas, club chairs, banquette-style seating—so it’s the perfect spot to spend the entire evening. The musical format keeps patrons in party mode as DJs spin throwback and current rock, hip-hop and indie. Electra stirs up the evening as well with impressive cocktail offerings, served inside statement glassware and incorporating a lot
of tropical flavors, with a focus on rums, rhum agricoles (cane juice rums) and mezcals. Order the shared cocktail slushy that comes in an eye-catching giant puffer fish glass—you can fill it with the Penichillin cocktail, a mix of smoky scotch, fresh lemon, ginger and honey, or the Peach Daiquiri, a blend of white rum, Rum Fire, Fino sherry, fresh peach and lime. Try a cocktail staple with a twist with the Disgruntled Mai Tai that mixes two rums, Aperol, lime, blue curaçao, orgeat syrup and Underberg bitters. There are specialty shots, too: the Quick Charge with vodka, cold brew coffee and coconut; the Night Shift with rum, passionfruit, lime, honey and chili salt; and the Change Up, a frozen peach daiquiri shot with a Fernet-Branca float. –Kiko Miyasato

Grande meatball
Andiamo Steakhouse delivers diverse menu of deep flavors By Brock Radke Photos by Peter Harasty
30 10.14.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
You may already know the reputation of Joe Vicari’s Andiamo Steakhouse in downtown Las Vegas. It’s one of the city’s top destinations for prime beef and classic Italian favorites, not to mention a sterling example of how to modernize a throwback dining experience. But each return visit to The D’s signature restaurant reveals a new detail or a different dish, which is why Andiamo is also one of the most memorable dining rooms in Vegas. From top-notch cocktails and wine selection to old-school, tableside preparations for classics like a true Caesar salad, the service and surroundings sparkle, creating welcoming vibes that invite you to dig deeper into this menu. The grande meatball, tender and rich with a deeply flavorful tomato sauce and fluffy ricotta cheese, remains the most popular appetizer and shouldn’t be missed. But there are several starters
that go beyond that and other classics like a gulf shrimp cocktail or jumbo lump crab cakes. For a different kind of hearty satisfaction, a warm plate of braised escarole decorated with house-made sausage, prosciutto, cherry peppers and Parmigiano-Reggiano offers the full spectrum of flavor, savory and spicy and rich. Bright banana peppers and garlic- and basil-laced ammoglio sauce are the special ingredients that set Andiamo’s version of calamari fritti apart from the pack, another opener that’ll please your entire table. And limoncello scallops are a one-of-a-kind dish, with a slightly tart sauce bringing new dimension to the seafood. For a fresh alternative to that Caesar, consider a kale and strawberry salad layered with creamy goat cheese, candied cashews, caramelized onion and cranberry vinaigrette. Andiamo is an Italian steakhouse, so a pasta course is a requirement. The pappardelle with veal ragu is a favorite, but

Filet mignon
feel free to experiment with artisan potato gnocchi with huge shrimp, asparagus and sundried tomato, or the hand-made agnolotti filled with spinach, mascarpone cream, black truffle and veal. When it’s time for the main event, Andiamo serves up more diverse options than it gets credit for, with braised veal osso bucco, pan-roasted sea scallops, Alaskan red king crab legs and marinated Colorado double-bone lamb chops among the beloved beef alternatives. But once you set your eyes on that perfectly charred long-bone ribeye steak that just touched down the next table over, it’s hard to focus on anything else. This is the highest-grade beef available, sourced from partners with stellar reputations of their own like Stock Yards Premium and Pat LaFrieda, so the flavor is everything you’ve come to expect. Supplement your steak with a tasting of Andiamo’s three sauces, au poivre, Bernaise and the restaurant’s signature Zip sauce, or add gorgonzola or peppercorn crusts. The petite filet mignon is certainly a worthy alternative, though, center-cut, charbroiled and so tender. Steakhouse sides are never more decadent than in this room, including white truffle whipped potatoes, bacon-laced Brussels sprouts, grilled asparagus with balsamic reduction and cipollini onions and baked ziti with lobster and black truffle. And if you think you’ve gone overboard, you haven’t even seen the dessert cart yet, stacked with sweet things from cheesecake to cannoli. See? So many reasons to come back again and again.

Gemma Acheson
Finding the perfect balance of cocktails and cuisine When it comes to her job, Gemma Acheson has found her happy place. She’s the lead mixologist for the new Boathouse Asian Eatery at Palace Station. After more than a dozen years in the Las Vegas food and beverage industry, and nine years specifically working behind the bar, the U.K. native has found a place she can call home. “I wanted to find a home where I can continue to grow and have some creative outlet in that home,” Acheson said. “It’s become one big happy family.” She and the rest of the Boathouse team helped launch the concept in Las Vegas (the flagship is in Santa Rosa), and Acheson was tasked to create a cocktail menu that would complement the Asian cuisine. “You need that balance between the cocktails and the food,” she said. “Create something that takes from the food, complements the food and is a nod to
32 10.14.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
the cuisine.” The result is 11 craft cocktails with hints of Asian spice and flavor. “In order to be into creating cocktails you also have to be into food; to me it’s hand-in-hand.” For Acheson, there is no separation between the kitchen and bar. The entire venue is one continuous entity filled with passionate people who want to entertain guests with the best experience possible, she said. “I’ve always been in love with the service industry,” Acheson said. “We (at Boathouse) geek out over restaurant stuff. We love the healthy flow of the restaurant—when it’s busy and everything is going, and people are happy and having a good time, and the drinks are great and the food is amazing, you just create an experience for people that they could just not get unless they came to your place, and that is the best part of the whole thing.” –Kiko Miyasato
Behind the bar, Acheson likes to keep the ingredients as fresh, organic and made in-house as much as possible. Many of the syrups are made in-house, and she’s even created some infused syrups to match the cuisine—like lemongrass and miso, helping to add that umami flavor to the cocktails, she said. A popular craft cocktail on the menu is the Buddha Fizz, a twist on the classic gin fizz. It’s mixed with Hendrick’s gin, fresh-squeezed lime juice, simple syrup and green tea matcha powder, topped with an egg white foam and garnished with an edible flower. “It has a light tea flavor,” Acheson said. “The gin is not too juniper heavy and has a bit of a cucumber freshness to it. It’s a nice, balanced cocktail.” –KM

Vegas vegan burrito
ne of the fastest-growing movements in the world also happens to be one of the oldest in the world—vegetarianism. And October and November are big for vegans and vegetarians—World Vegetarian Day was Oct. 1, October is Vegetarian Awareness Month, World Vegan Day is Nov. 1 and November is World Vegan Month. If you’re looking for a place to find that veggie Vegas meal, whether you’re a vegetarian or not, we have puh-lenty of suggestions for you. Buffets, although often meat-heavy, are more and more excellent places to find plant-based dishes—and not just at the salad bar. At Red Rock Resort Feast buffet, you can find a vegan paella on Friday and Saturday nights. If you’re there at the right time, you might even see it being made in a hefty cooking vessel; reports are that “it is bomb.” About 40 items rotate in and out of a healthy living area here.
rice features habanero barbecue sauce, an amazing quinoa, cowboy caviar and other goodies. Over at Guy Fieri’s Vegas Kitchen & Bar in The Linq, the Vegas vegan burrito is classified as “Lighter Fare,” but you are in no danger of starving. It’s pretty hefty, actually, double-wrapped and stuffed with black beans, guac, smoked sweet potato and coconut Thai curry sauce.
Black bean veggie burger
off the Strip, request a vegan menu and you will almost certainly be satisfied. It’s super fun to try to test your tastebuds and narrow down what’s on your plate. Veggie burgers abound in this city, and you can find patties of all sorts—Hexx Kitchen + Bar at Paris’ black bean quinoa burger with avocado is very, very nice. Slice of Vegas at Mandalay Bay offers a vegan menu, including pizzas with Daiya, and a killer meatball sub. Next door, Hussong’s Cantina also has vegan items—tacos, burritos, chilaquiles; those’ll make it a good day. Scattered across the Vegas Valley itself are almost 20 strictly vegan restaurants; Simply Pure in Container Park downtown has garnered a reputation for excellent food, with spring rolls, grilled “cheese” with pesto and tomato paninis, nachos and green chili enchiladas on the menu. It’s a good month to be vegetarian in Las Vegas, and next month, it’ll be good to be vegan. Or just eat like one.
Vegan paella
At the Palms A.Y.C.E. Buffet, you’ll find quite a few veggie items—the vegan sushi is especially intriguing. The upscale Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace offers plenty of meat-free dishes; usually labeled if they are specifically vegetarian or vegan. Most resort restaurants offer plantbased options. BBQ Mexicana at Mandalay Bay’s smoked tofu bowl with cilantro-lime
Some places even have entire tasting menus. Sage at Aria offers an elevated vegan tasting menu with sunchoke tartare and a green gazpacho; Michael Mina at Bellagio offers a super-delicious vegetarian menu, with stars like a market vegetable pot pie and matsutake mushroom custard. The dishes do change out, depending on the season. At Blackout Dining in the Dark
