children, it’s nice to able to grace the same stage. You’re both known for being pretty raw onstage. People say we are both super raw, but are we raw or are we honest? We don’t have those alternative facts. We do honest comedy and storytelling and you can laugh along with it. What should we expect from your residency? Just show up. We do what we do as comics. What’s our purpose? To make you laugh and make you feel better about your situation, whatever it may be. When you come to Mo’Nique Does Vegas, Imma do Vegas, and you’re coming for a lot of laughter, no judgment, a lot of love and a great time.
Mo’Nique
Comedian is seriously funny onstage at the Sayers Club Veteran comedian Mo’Nique reached a new level of her career as a very versatile entertainer 10 years ago when she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her powerful performance in Precious. But despite her serious acting roles, it’s always been all about stand-up comedy, and she’s making that clear during her first Las Vegas residency at the Sayers Club at SLS every Thursday through Saturday until Feb. 28. You’ve performed in Las Vegas but it’s been a few years. Do you like spending time in Vegas? I think the first time I performed in Las Vegas may have been with The Kings and Queens of Comedy (tours). Vegas is showgirls. Vegas is light. Vegas is excitement.

Vegas is fantasy. The last time I actually was there was several years ago and I went to the Blue Man (Group) show. There was a time when I came to Vegas and it was all about the buffet. You could eat food from all over the world in one (meal) and I tried to take
advantage of every bite I could. But now life is different. I don’t do the buffet, I do the buff. Eddie Griffin started his residency at the Sayers Club last year and you both came up through Russell Simmons’ Def Comedy Jam. Did his presence play a part in your coming to SLS? That’s my baby. We did a movie together (Irish Jam) and I’m honored to be on that stage because Eddie and I go back years. When you’re able to play with your friends and then later you’re doing what you love to do, and now we’re both these older people with families and grown
You’ve had so much different success on TV and in movies and of course you won the Academy Award. What impact has that had on your stand-up? I’ve always told people I’m not an actress, I’m a stand-up comedian and a talk show host, but people still give me that label. Did it change me? No, because I never stopped being a stand-up comedian. I’ve evolved and grown up and changed and unfortunately, you’re right, that does happen to some comedians once we do get into TV and movies, something happens to that live performance aspect. But I never left and standup is actually very therapeutic for me. If I walk away from stand-up, it would jeopardize who I am as a person. It’s part of who I am. I’ll be 99 years old with one tooth and one string of hair hanging, and they’ll say, “Coming to the stage!” And I’ll say, yes, I’m coming, but it might take a little time.
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.
Getting Jazzy With It She set the Strip on fire with the New Year’s Eve weekend debut of Enigma, a brand-new concert spectacular offering all her biggest hits in glamorous, futuristic fashion. Then Lady Gaga fulfilled a different kind of destiny earlier this month when she won the Golden Globe for Best Original Song for “Shallow,” the emotional ballad she performs with director and co-star Bradley Cooper in A Star Is Born.
Now Gaga displays yet another dimension with this week’s Jazz & Piano premiere at Park Theater, the second style of show she’s performing as part of her Vegas residency. Expect stripped-down versions of some of those hits as well as other personal favorites and classics performed from the piano, with the same emotional resonance that earned this unique artist acclaim for her film performance.
must-see Santana The modern-day Las Vegas concert residency is a phenomenon because you get to see and listen to iconic artists performing classic material in a variety of luxurious, cozy theater environments. But none of these wildly popular shows can compare to the experience of An Intimate Evening with Santana: Greatest Hits Live at the House of Blues, which at times transports you to a San Francisco rock club in the 1960s for a Latin/blues/psychedelic shake up. Nobody else jams like this. Now in his seventh year performing on the Strip, Carlos Santana’s musically limitless show is more spontaneous and fluid than ever and it’s back at Mandalay Bay Jan. 23-Feb. 2.

Ant-Man star Paul Rudd partied at off-Strip hot spot the Golden Tiki recently along with buddies Ken Marino, Kerri Kenney, A.D. Miles and Brooklyn Nine-Nine star Joe Lo Truglio. The gathering was a belated birthday party for Marino, who wrote the screenplays for Rudd’s movies Wanderlust and Role Models, and the Hollywood hot shots had so much fun that some of them returned to the rum-soaked tropical wonderland the next night. Among the many celebs and stars attending the grand opening of Hong Kong’s Mott 32 restaurant at The Venetian were This is Us actor Justin Hartley, actress Jamie Chung, designer Christian Siriano, The Talk host Carrie Ann Inaba and Venetian headliners Human Nature. There’s a brand-new show coming to Las Vegas this month. Celestia makes its debut Jan. 30 in a 200,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art tent right on the north tip of the Strip at the Stratosphere. Described as “an otherworldly story of love and sacrifice through elite acrobatics and dance, aerial feats, live music and sophisticated illusion,” this immersive experience promises to bring fresh excitement to the Boulevard. John Michael Higgins, the actor and comedian who hosts America Says on the Game Show Network but might be best known for his hilarious turn as an announcer in the Pitch Perfect films, took his family to the Blue Man Group show at Luxor. It’s unclear whether he coaxed an unprecedented a capella performance out of the three Blue Men during a post-show meet-and-greet.

Goodbye, My Dear
Touring show says farewell to beloved character Tyler Perry has wanted to kill off his cinematic alter ego Madea for years. He now has the opportunity to do it in style with the March release of the 10th film of the franchise, Madea’s Family Funeral, and a final stage tour, Tyler Perry’s Madea’s Farewell Play Tour, that he launched on Jan. 18. Perry has never become tired of the outspoken, outlandish grandmother figure beloved by millions of moviegoers, but he could do without the rigors of donning makeup and costume then sweating through a day of directing. Perry said on a November 2017 broadcast of NBC’s Today that “The minute people stop coming, that broad is dead,” but there’s no sign of audience interest waning 20 years later. With his responsibilities mounting thanks to a new studio built on a confederate army base in Atlanta, it was time to retire her.
The only way to say goodbye to Madea properly is onstage, where she was created. Tyler Perry’s Madea’s Farewell Play Tour, starring franchise veterans Tamela Mann, David Mann and Cassi Davis, is Perry’s 21st stage play. It was in theater that the Louisiana native found himself as a young man, after Oprah Winfrey inspired him to write. After nearly a decade of honing his skill, Perry scored his first stage success with I Know I’ve Been Changed in 1998, which he took on tour for two years following its breakthrough at Atlanta’s House of Blues. Mabel M. Simmons, a geriatric force of nature better known as Madea, made her first appearance in Perry’s 1999 play I Can Do Bad All by Myself. Madea, short for “my dear,” is a composite character based on the author’s strong-willed but spiritual female relatives. She resonated as a familiar persona with audiences, and after three
more stage productions she made her first film appearance in Perry’s 2005 film-directing debut, Diary of a Mad Black Woman. Perry, who played Colin Powell in holiday theatrical release Vice, weathered criticism for perpetuating stereotypes, but the films’ enduring popularity is his strongest defense. Watching Madea films has become a holiday tradition, and Perry wisely reinvested the profits his films made back into the community. He intends to employ up to 4,000 people at Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta, where Black Panther was the first production to use its new stages. Madea made that possible, so Perry is making it possible for audiences to say goodbye one more time, most appropriately, in a live setting. –Matt Kelemen Planet Hollywood Resort, 5 p.m. Jan. 27, starting at $50 plus tax and fee. 800.745.3000 Ticketmaster

Remember When? Seven shows over three weekends is heaven for Vegas-bound Van Morrison fans, some of whom may have seen him playing multiple nights when he first performed as a solo artist in the late ’60s, or possibly before then, when he would play in Sunset Strip nightclubs as frontman of his Belfast-based band Them. Morrison was shaped by the access he had to his father’s extensive collection of blues, country and gospel at a time when peers were limited to buying records as they could afford them. By the late-’50s, he was a professional musician, scored hits such as “Gloria” and “Here Comes the Night,” and went solo with the 1967 single “Brown Eyed Girl.” He’s recorded prolifically ever since, starting with classic albums such as Astral Weeks and Moondance, and most recently with jazz organist Joey DeFrancesco and his trio on 2018’s You’re Driving Me Crazy and The Prophet Speaks. –Matt Kelemen

All Along the Highway Kris Kristofferson is an unlikely success as a singer. The legendary country artist started out as a working songwriter, penning songs made famous by Johnny Cash (“Sunday Morning Coming Down”), Janis Joplin (“Me and Bobby McGee”) and Sammi Smith (“Help Me Make It Through the Night”), among many others, even as his own versions struggled to achieve the same recognition. Thanks to support from fans and colleagues like Cash, Joplin and Waylon Jennings, Kristofferson eventually made his mark as a solo artist, starting with 1971 hit “Lovin’ Her Was Easier (Than Anything I’ll Ever Do Again).” Along with Cash, Jennings and Willie Nelson, Kristofferson formed the popular outlaw-country supergroup The Highwaymen, and his songs continue to be touchstones for young artists outside the country mainstream. Kristofferson has also had a long and successful acting career, and his performance opposite Barbra Streisand in the 1976 version of A Star Is Born was a clear influence on Bradley Cooper’s recent remake. In 2016, Kristofferson was nominated for a Grammy for his latest album, The Cedar Creek Sessions, just the latest accolade in his long, eclectic career. –Josh Bell

Giada De Laurentiis (restaurant Giada) and Victor Drai (Drai’s Nightclub) already combine to make The Cromwell exciting.

Blake Segal, senior vice president of global operations at Caesars Entertainment, said, “This is a very small property (188 hotel rooms) and relies on visitation from those not staying on property. These odds make it a compelling option on the overall market.” –Ken Miller Kris Kristofferson photo by Ash Newell Bardot Brasserie photo by Peter Harasty, The Cromwell photo by Erik Kabik

Let’s Dance Since 2017, Southern California’s popular Latin pop and hip-hop festival Calibash has offered an equally popular Las Vegas edition, with past headliners including Ricky Martin and Jennifer Lopez. The third Vegas version of Calibash features another Latin music superstar, Enrique Iglesias, as its headliner, along with fellow Latin artists Ozuna, Bad Bunny, Wisin, Yandel, Becky G, Farruko, Larry Over, Anuel AA and Osmani Garcia. This year’s event sports a retro ’80s theme, and promises to turn the entire T-Mobile Arena into a massive dance floor.
Iglesias is one of the biggest crossover stars of the Latin-music boom of the late ’90s and early ’00s, thanks to mainstream pop hits like “Bailamos,” “Hero” and “Don’t Turn Off the Lights. Latin music is more prominent than ever on radio stations, streaming services and singles charts in the U.S., and rising stars like Ozuna (“La Modelo”) and Bad Bunny (“I Like It”) are a big reason why. With a mix of veterans (including reggaeton stars Wisin and Yandel) and up-andcomers, Calibash has something for any fan of catchy, dance-friendly Latin music. –Josh Bell
Bang for Your Buck If you’ve seen The Lego Movie, then you know the song “Everything Is Awesome.” You can take that same attitude to Blue Man Group. The trio appears wide-eyed and expressionless at first, and are soon perplexed by a bag of marshmallows and a jar of gumballs, which are then pitched into each other’s mouths, then spit colorfully onto spinning canvasses. The Blue Men are observant and quizzical; they help us notice things about the world

What a Magical Afternoon
OMG! It’s OMD Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys started Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark in 1978 after playing together in a series of bands dating back to their school days. Joy Division had first recorded their post-punk sound that year and Depeche Mode were two years from forming, while McCluskey and Humphreys had been looking for a sound in opposition to what they saw as an oversaturation of macho-posturing, guitar-driven bands. Inspired by Kraftwerk and Brian Eno, they began playing live and were invited to tour with Gary Numan after the synth-pop pioneer saw them open for Joy Division. Their self-titled 1980 debut
was minimalist synth-pop, and OMD had several hits as they expanded their lineup and experimented musically over the course of three albums. They went in a poppier direction for 1984’s Junk Culture, which was a commercial hit and led to airplay in the hippest U.S. radio markets. Humphreys left in 1988 after OMD scored with “If You Leave,” from the Pretty In Pink soundtrack, and McCluskey put OMD to rest in 1996. Humphreys reunited with McCluskey a decade later, and in 2011 were joined by golden-era member Martin Cooper for a North American tour. And yes, McCluskey still dances like the Tasmanian Devil on MDA. –Matt Kelemen

In the Mac King Comedy Magic Show, illusionist Mac King is nearly as practiced at the art of innuendo that goes over adolescent heads as he is at sleight-of-hand. “Because it’s in the afternoon, the misconception, I think, is that it’s a kids’ show. It’s a show designed for adults, that kids like.” King expertly walks the line of risqué humor without crossing it, keeping all ages laughing. It might be the goldfish he pulls from his mouth that helps create the impression that his magic is kid-friendly. It was honing his craft that led to his iconoclastic approach to magic, and like a rising stand-up comic he tailored his material with an eye on the future. “While I really love filthy, dirty, comedy, I didn’t want to put anything in my show that I couldn’t do on TV, in the hopes that someday it would be on TV,” King laughed. –MK

Memory Maker
She’s on Fire This is what they mean by an “overnight success.” Never mind that Tiffany Haddish, 39, began dabbling in comedy when she was 17 years old and that such luminaries as Richard Pryor and The Wayans Brothers have shepherded her career. Never mind that she was a working comedian in Los Angeles for years and years, refining her craft. Never mind that she had memorable turns in television shows ranging from It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia to New Girl. Never mind that she had starred in multiple feature films before Girls Trip,
including Key and Peele’s Keanu. From there, the ride has been golden. She is a go-to guest for latenight talk shows—she cracks up Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon on the regular. Her high energy and enthusiasm has made her a star to watch in anticipated upcoming films like The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part and The Kitchen. Haddish’s ability to turn her real-life situations into bust-a-gut funny stories is what makes her so special. That’s how one becomes an “overnight success.” –Jason Harris
The accomplished Jen Kramer (Westgate Las Vegas, 800.222.5361) incorporates mentalism, comedy and lots of audience participation. She makes a signed hundred-dollar bill appear inside a tube of lipstick and creates a largerthan-life social media page onstage. For Kramer, it’s all about making smiles appear out of nowhere. “What it all comes down to for me is connecting with people. That’s why magic is such a meaningful part of my life,” she says. –Brock Radke

Staying Power
The Golden Nugget’s weekly concert series featuring popular artists of yesteryear has recently featured 1980s rock acts, but this week the clock gets dialed back a bit further with Gary Puckett and The Union Gap, whose songs epitomize the phrase “standing the test of time.” Formed in San Diego in 1966, the group broke big with 1967’s “Woman, Woman”—the first of six consecutive gold-certified records. In 1968 alone, the pop group sold more records than any other artist and finished the year with five Top 100 singles. By comparison, James Brown had two, while The Beatles and Aretha Franklin each had three. By 1971 the Union Gap disbanded, but a decade later Puckett enjoyed a rebirth as a regular on the oldies’ circuit, and ever since he’s toured as a solo artist and with a retooled version of the Union Gap, keeping the classics alive. –Matt Jacob

Eureka!, which has a couple of dozen locations around the country, doesn’t feel like a chain. The warm, modern-industrial, beer-and-burger-bar vibes are closer to the feelings you’ll get from the handful of cool restaurants that surround it. That’s because the food and drinks are stellar. The all-American beer and bourbon selections make for an exciting tasting experience; recent tap selections include Odell’s Green Coyote Tomatillo Sour and local fave Able Baker’s Atomic Duck IPA. If you’re pairing your brew with a burger, consider the Fresno Fig with sweet fig marmalade, melted goat cheese, bacon and spicy porter mustard, or the bison burger with bacon-jalapeño jam, grilled peppers and onions and smoked mozzarella. There are other irresistible entrées, from blackened fish tacos with avocado and mango salsa to an au jus steak sandwich with horseradish mustard aioli. The extensive starters menu could also be a beer- or booze-pairing adventure. Osso buco riblets and Polish sausage mini corn dogs are tons of fun, while falafel bites are lighter but still delicious, thanks to tzatziki, feta, pickled red onions, fresh dill and red chimichurri sauce. And be sure to check out their weekend brunch, where you can sip on $5 bloody marys and mimosas and dine on faves like steak n’ eggs, chilaquiles and the sweet, fluffy bread pudding French toast. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff 520 E.

Berry Happy, Indeed
Gin lounge offers inventive cocktails It would only make sense to stock the Juniper Cocktail Lounge full of the spirit that derives most of its flavoring from the juniper berry. Part of Park MGM’s rebranding of the property, Juniper offers more than 60 labels of gin—and what the Juniper mixologists do with said spirit is quite imaginative. “Every beverage that we present is a moment where people can stop and stare and say, ‘Wow!’ And for some of these, we tell people ahead of time, ‘Get your camera out, get ready,’” said Rupert King, director of food and beverage for Park MGM. “For the specialty drinks, each vessel, the glass that it comes in, is unique. There’s a presentation to it that is very fun, it’s whimsical and the product that’s inside tastes great.” Located right off the casino floor, Juniper offers an intimate space that exudes a speakeasy-
26 1.20.19 LasVegasMagazine.com
type vibe with classic, ornate furnishings and billowy curtains that add a bit of privacy from passersby. Sit at the bar or on velvety sofas and plush chairs with small tables, perfect for groups. Start the cocktail experience here with a classic gin and tonic—except at Juniper they up the experience. “When guests order the GNT (gin and tonic) it’s like a choose-your-own-adventure cocktail,” said King. Along with the bartender, guests get to use a paper fortune teller to pick the gin, tonic and the garnish like juniper berries or bay leaves. A fun, sweeter sip is the Carnival cocktail blended with Tanqueray No. Ten gin, fresh lime, St-Germain elderflower liqueur and cotton candy. Perfect for the season is the Maple Old Fashioned, a simple recipe that’s a nice balanced blend of WhistlePig 10 Year Straight Rye
Whiskey, barrel-aged maple syrup and Angostura bitters. But don’t stop there. Simple, yet elegant and tasty, is the True to the Roots cocktail with Spring 44 gin, clover honey, fresh lemon and fresh-squeezed orange juice. Juniper’s use of fresh fruit, eclectic garnishes and housemade syrups from the property’s bakery add an extra touch to the specialty cocktails, and truly make a difference in the cocktail-tasting experience. With more than a dozen specialty cocktails available and the huge gin selection, along with top-shelf bourbon, scotch, tequila, rum, vodka, beer and wine, Juniper is certainly more than a casual-cocktail-at-a-casino-bar experience. “We provide a higher-level cocktail experience,” said King. “We’re creating something memorable.” –Kiko Miyasato

With Vetri Cucina, chef cooks up spirit of original Every so often a restaurant comes around that is so good immediately, it leaves you wondering why it took so long to get there. This is the type of restaurant that elevates an entire culinary scene. 28 1.20.19 LasVegasMagazine.com
It’s the type of restaurant that thrives on word of mouth from both locals and tourists. And it’s the type of restaurant patrons return to again and again because the experience is so fresh, unex-
pected and exciting. Vetri Cucina in Vegas is one such restaurant. Marc Vetri, the celebrity chef from Philadelphia, has taken the concept that first earned him acclaim and expanded it here. What

is a 30-seat place in Philadelphia is 75 seats at the Palms. As guests walk in, they are greeted by famed Las Vegas barman David Cooper who holds down “Coop’s Corner” with cocktails like the Bergamotto Spritz, a classy combination of Italian Bergamotto liqueur, grapefruit, prosecco and lemon peel, and the Negroni Sbagliato, featuring Campari, Carpano Antica Formula Vermouth and Prosecco Superiore. Past the bar, the open space of the dining room features stunning views of the city from 56 stories up. The food has sometimes been called “rustic” but this is real-deal, thoughtful, high-end Italian fare. The menu changes regularly, but one appetizer that should move from the specials to the everyday offerings is the tortellini pie. Tortellini, meatballs, a thick bolognaise and béchamel sauce are expertly pocketed inside of a golden pastry crust. The pie is baked and finished with aged balsamic vinegar, adding some
Chestnut fettuccine
sweetness to this small wonder. The sweet onion crepe contains a large portion of caramelized onions, rolled up inside a thin crepe and sliced to showcase the interior. It sits atop a white truffle fonduta creating a luxurious bite. The pasta section is hit after hit. Almond tortellini with truffle butter is expertly crafted and has a comforting taste to it. Thick chestnut fettuccine noodles hold their own against the assertive wild boar ragu. Another worthy dish is the mafaldini, a ribbon-liked ridged noodle, here served with wild duck ragu and olives. The most interesting pasta may be the squash rotolo. Think of it as a crispy pasta wheel rolled with layers and layers of noodles and filling that includes Gorgonzola fonduta and ginger. One might think these strong tastes would
antagonize each other, but they work in glorious harmony. If you need more protein, go for the whole roasted baby goat, which tastes like a fantastically barbecued piece of meat. Desserts show just as much thoughtfulness as the rest of the menu. Budino, a pudding of sorts, separates itself from other iterations by using polenta as the major component. It’s finished with gianduja (chocolate and hazelnut) mousse and candied hazelnuts. Bombolini, little fried donuts, are served with a huckleberry jam so tasty that Vetri should bottle it as a breakfast spread. And the Sicilian pistachio flan is more like a small cake. Accompanied by a milk chocolate gelato, it’s thoughtfully composed and entirely delicious. Welcome to Las Vegas, Vetri. The city has been waiting for you. LasVegasMagazine.com 1.20.19

Autumn Webster
Manager is a part of the Vegas experience Autumn Webster is woven into the tapestry of what makes Vegas Vegas. As the assistant manager for BLT Steak at Bally’s, she’s “making sure that people have the time of their lives while they’re here at the restaurant. I give them the most memorable experiences,” she says. But Webster was a part of this great city long before joining BLT. She was born and raised in Vegas, and her parents have quite the tie-in, too. Her mother was a showgirl, one of the original principal dancers for the Lido de Paris at Stardust, and her father built and sold classic cars to casino CEOs and presidents. After high school, Webster left Vegas to travel and do volunteer work, but the city called her back, and by the time she was 21 she was bartending and cocktail serving at various spots around the Strip. Three years ago, she joined
30 1.20.19 LasVegasMagazine.com
BLT as an on-call bartender, and after a couple of years she decided to take a chance and apply for a management role. “I bravely walked up to the director one day and told him I had something to talk to him about,” Webster says. “He asked me what we could do better and what I would improve at BLT and I looked him squarely in the face and said, ‘With more than 15 years of experience in the industry, bring me on as your third manager.’” It worked—she got the management position in September. “It’s been my role to help reset the standard for our service, to focus on and revitalize the experience from what it was,” she says. “We are a boutique, fine-dining atmosphere. ... You still receive the white-tablecloth service that you would get at, say, Ritz-Carlton, but here you can relax and really enjoy yourself.” –Kiko Miyasato
The name is an acronym for “just another gin” drink, but it’s not just another drink—it’s a really tasty cocktail that’ll have you ordering more than one. One of BLT Steak’s specialty cocktails, the drink is made with Bombay Sapphire gin, Aperol and honey and lemon, orange and grapefruit juices. It’s the perfect cocktail complement to BLT Steak’s new raw bar menu. Grab The Jag during happy hour, which includes half-off all cocktails, from 4-6 p.m. daily while noshing on a dish or two from the raw bar—selections include east and west coast oysters, and dishes like shrimp cocktail, king salmon, ahi tuna and New England lobster sliders. –KM

Still Spicy
Southwestern-style restaurant hasn’t slowed Anticipation is building for celebrity chef Bobby Flay’s next Las Vegas venture, the inspired seafood concept Shark opening at the Palms resort this spring. But fans of Flay know his Mesa Grill restaurant (Caesars Palace, 702.731.7731) has long been more than a Vegas Strip institution; it’s a place where cutting-edge flavors and bold culinary strokes are habitual. Mesa Grill remains one of the city’s favorite power-lunch destinations, fueled by dishes like the tiger shrimp and roasted garlic corn tamale,
ancho and chile-honey glazed salmon and the beloved green chile cheeseburger with roasted poblano peppers and rich queso sauce. Newer options at dinner include red chile barbecue duck served with a blue corn and red quinoa johnnycake, 16-spice chicken with habañeroapricot butter mashed potatoes and a chipotleglazed, 22-ounce, bone-in ribeye steak. You don’t need to wait to sample this creative collection of flavors, just head over to Caesars Palace ASAP. –Brock Radke
Flavor blooms nightly at Lotus of Siam (620 E. Flamingo Road, 702.735.3033), one of Vegas’ best-known Thai restaurants. James Beard Award-winning chef Saipin Chutima creates gourmet dishes from Thailand’s rich and varied culinary traditions. Standouts include khao soi (crispy duck with wide noodles and curry sauce) and deep-fried garlic prawns. The extensive menu features a wellcurated wine list, perfect pairings for Thai spices, and weekday lunch hours are a handy option for conventioneers. And yes, Lotus serves an amazing pad Thai! –Greg Thilmont

Undeniable talent, iconic music and all-around showmanship. To be a successful headliner in the highly competitive entertainment landscape of the Las Vegas Strip, you must have at least one of these weapons in your arsenal. Or you could be like Boyz II Men, which has all three. Now in their sixth year of performing one of the Strip’s most entertaining musical residencies at the Terry Fator Theatre at The Mirage, Nathan Morris, Wanya Morris and Shawn Stockman have honed their show into a wellbalanced, finely tuned example of what this style of Vegas production should be. They honor their longtime fans with pristine performances of their biggest hits, from “End of the Road” to “I’ll Make Love to You,” but never fail to impress with extra energy and a few surprises along the way. No matter what you expect from one of the most talented and successful soul and R&B singing groups of all time, you’ll leave with a fresh impression and the same thoughts everyone has: “I didn’t know they could do that!” Boyz II Men is still best known from its prolific period during the 1990s as a harmonyfocused foursome. Bass Michael McCary left the group in 2003 due to health issues but the remaining Boyz didn’t slow down, releasing seven more studio albums including 2017’s Under the Streetlight that hearkened back to their a capella origins.

But that doo-wop-flavored section of the show is just one chapter in this well-composed story. The individually and collectively gifted vocalists cruise through Motown classics including “Just My Imagination” and “The Tracks of My Tears”—complete with Temptations-style choreography—and a few rock and roll favorites like “Are You Gonna Go My Way” and “Come Together.” There are the classic Boyz II Men cover songs, including The Beatles’ “Yesterday” and the song they The originally passed on that went Mirage on to become one of the big7:30 p.m. Jan. 25-27, gest pop crossover hits of its starting at $49.99 era, Lonestar’s “Amazed.” plus tax and fee.

Experience CIRQUE DU SOLEIL like never before with VIP packages By Ken Miller
“O”
LET’S FACE IT: One of the reasons you come to Las Vegas is to feel special. After all, this is the city that perfected the VIP experience—if you can dream it, Vegas can make it happen. And now you can add Cirque du Soleil to the list of premier VIP experiences, as four of its shows are now offering an evening you will never forget. Even if you’ve seen Cirque’s masterful “O” at Bellagio before, you’ll want to take advantage of the La Grande Expérience. Before the show even starts, you’re whisked away to a special VIP area where you can enjoy a guided video tour (including never-beforeseen footage) and get your picture taken with “O” artists. Then the real fun begins, as you’ll see “O” from a private VIP suite, guaranteeing a rare vantage point while you enjoy gourmet bites and private cocktail
box seats featuring couch seating and a 55inch screen broadcasting the show. When the performance is over, you’ll head straight to a artist meet-and-greet, complete with a commemorative photo. You can enjoy this experience at either of the show’s nightly performances Saturday to Wednesday. It’s one thing to be transported away by the classic tunes of the Fab Four, but when you purchase the Toast to LOVE VIP Experience at The Beatles LOVE at The Mirage, you’ll be transported backstage before the shows begins for a tour of the inner workings of the show. After getting some insider scoop and a whole new appreciation of the production, you’ll get your photo taken with some of the show’s artists, after which you’ll be escorted to VIP seating, where you’ll be treated to a specialty cocktail. This special KÀ
service. The experience is available for pairs only at either of the nightly performances Wednesday to Sunday. One of the most impressive aspects of KÀ at MGM Grand is its multidirectional stage that moves in a variety of ways. Now with The Imperial Experience, you can get a view of that stage like never before with a VIP lounge space 30 feet above the audience. Not only do you get to enjoy unobstructed views of all the action, you’ll receive a complimentary cocktail and popcorn (anything else your heart desires can be provided by your very own VIP host). In addition, there’s a lounge space behind the
Mystère
experience is available for the show’s 7 p.m. performances on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The best way to enjoy the 25th anniversary of Cirque’s original Vegas classic, Mystère, may be to take advantage of its In The Wings Experience. Your evening starts with special access to a view from the stage—you’ll get to see what previously only the performers had seen. Then you’re handed a glass of champagne and taken backstage to see the show’s artists putting the finishing touches on their makeup. Go ahead and ask them any question you like— they’re full of interesting show information. Then you’ll actually be able to don a show costume and get a photo with the cast and crew. Then sit back in VIP seats and enjoy the show, and, when it’s nearly over, you get to go backstage to the wings and partake in the show’s nightly ritual of high-fiving the cast. This package is available only at the 7 p.m. performance Saturday to Wednesday.

A Las Vegas Favorite Makes Its Debut at Luxor
RAISE A LITTLE HELL AT DIABLO’S CANTINA Diablos has unleashed its unique brand of south-of-the-border dining, drinking, and a little decadence only at Luxor Hotel & Casino. Open daily for lunch and dinner, Diablos features a vibrant and savory menu with a variety of mouthwatering specialties including freshly made salsas and guacamoles. Fresh entrees like the Grilled Shrimp Burrito, Alambre Tacos, and the Vixen Chicken, are all masterfully prepared by Executive Chef Saul Ortiz. “I want to give our guests a flavorful tour of Mexico in every bite,” says Chef Saul. “The flavors will speak to your soul and make your entire dining experience at Diablos more than memorable.” With more than 20 years’ experience in the kitchen, Chef Saul no doubt delivers on his promise and brings his energy from the kitchen to the table through his top-notch staff. Naturally, the Diablo’s Cantina reincarnation is bolstered by a selection of unique margaritas, an extensive tequila menu, and creative cocktails made with premium ingredients, mixed to perfection and sure to wet any wicked whistle. For those with more of a sweet tooth, the new menu includes a scrumptious Fried Platano Split that is sure to become a desert-lover’s favorite. Diablos Bar and Diablos Store, directly across from the restaurant are the perfect places to grab a signature Senor Gordo frozen drink or a logo’d hat or shirt to help you remember (what you might not remember) from your Diablos experience. A private dining room is also available for groups of ten to fifty. Located on Luxor’s Mezzanine Level, Diablo’s Cantina is open seven days a week 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. So, grab some friends and make a little mischief.
