NOTES

From the Editor 100% Fun

By the time you read this, the city of Las Vegas will likely have reopened 100%. What does that mean for you? It really depends on what you plan on doing during your stay. There are many moving parts to the process of ramping the city back up to full capacity, and there are bound to be some growing pains along the way. For example, you may potentially have longer waits for things you used to take for granted—checking into your hotel room, getting a table at your favorite restaurant, or being able to snag tickets to your favorite show. But rest assured: Your enjoyment of Las Vegas and all it has to offer is about to grow exponentially. For example, live music performances are returning in the coming weeks and months, including residencies like Carlos Santana at Mandalay Bay’s House of Blues; buffets are reopening, including the popular Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace; and more shows are coming back, including Cirque du Soleil’s “O” at Bellagio and Mystère at Treasure Island. So where do you start? Well, that’s where we come in. This week’s issue assembles a bit of something for everyone. If you’re planning on seeing a show while you’re here, head straight to our collection of shows guaranteed to provide some laughs, something that’s in tragically short supply these day (“Take Your Medicine,” p.

20). If you want to keep the laughs coming, check out Atomic Saloon Show, Spiegelworld’s hit show at Grand Canal Shoppes (“How the West Was Fun,” p. 12), but before you do, check out editor at large Brock Radke’s Q&A with Petra Massey, the performer who portrays the show’s raunchy host (“The Doors Have Swung Open,” p. 26). If you’re looking to do some shopping while you’re here, make sure to check out our list of the best places to spend those hard-earned bucks (“9 Ideal Spots for a Vegas Shopping Spree,” p. 24). If it’s a great meal you seek, we’ve gathered up amazing eateries like Gordon Ramsay Steak at Paris (“Fresh Take,” p. 8), Edge Steakhouse at Westgate Las Vegas (“A Night to Remember,” p. 12), and Estiatorio Milos at The Grand Canal Shoppes (“By the Sea,” p. 14), as well as great on- and off-Strip restaurants, courtesy of Radke (“Summer’s Greats,” p. 18). But as much as we love celebrating what’s coming up for Las Vegas, we also love celebrating its storied history. Associate editor Kiko Miyasato has written a story about the 100-year-old-plus Golden Gate, its history and remodeling (“Traveling Through Time,” p. 22). This is a property you want to check out! However you choose to celebrate the reopening of Vegas, enjoy!

A Great Spot to Alight Yes, you can get the wings, and most certainly you can get the beer, but that’s only part of what Hooters serves up. You’ll find monster portions of dishes like Tex Mex nachos with chili guac and chipotle sauce, fried pickles, chicken Caesar salad, and Baja fish tacos (either grilled or crispy), with an optional

upgrade to blackened mahi-mahi. Get grilled fish, Philly cheesesteaks and blackened mahi-mahi sandwiches, or several types of half-pound burgers, from a patty melt to a double-decker. A favorite appetizer here, the Lots-A-Tots, is a huge mound of tots with cheese, sour cream, green onions and bacon.

If the wings are what you’re here for, Hooters offer five varieties, plus eight different types of sauces. You can find those wing sauces all over the menu, too, in sandwiches, salads and other items. Plus, Hooters surrounds you with TV screens, making it perfect for watching sports. –Nina King

A Fresh Take Before they go away, you need to try some of Gordon Ramsay Steak’s spring menu delights. The restaurant recently introduced a variety of dishes ranging from sides to entrées, including seared Hudson Valley foie gras, which comes with pain perdu (essentially, a type of French toast), smoked almond granola, strawberry-white balsamic marmalade and rhubarb reduction. Pan-seared salmon is served with morel cream and fire-roasted artichokes, while Colorado rack of lamb is a satisfying morsel with manchego polenta cakes, trumpet mushrooms and mint-pea purée. And charred asparagus and artichokes is created with an unusual pumpernickel and Meyer lemon emulsion. But if you prefer one of the classic dishes on the menu, like the signature beef Wellington, it’s here for you. And steak comes in several forms, from a triple-seared Japanese A-5 (sold per ounce) to several sizes of American wagyu and Prime beef, in smaller filets and monstrous tomahawk cuts. And although Ramsay’s popular bread pudding is available, try the strawberry Scottish shortbread for a change of pace.–Nina King

Aussie Awesomeness

Pedal to Metal Whether you’ve raced an elite machine countless times or you’re a complete beginner, you’ll find an experience to give you an adrenaline rush at Exotics Racing. You get to choose from a fleet of more than 40 of the finest cars in the world— Lamborghinis, Porsches, Ferraris, McLarens—and take to the track to try them out (after receiving some basic training information, of course).

.8. 5.30.21 LAS VEGAS MAGAZINE

Want something more down to earth? Exotics also has an extensive array of go-karts—here called SuperKarts. You can race away on Exotics’ new track, knowing you’re completely safe, which allows you to focus on one thing: fun. If you’d rather be a spectator, no problem! Try a ride-along with a driving professional in a Dodge Charger Hellcat for the ride of your life. –Ken Miller 7605 Speedway Blvd., 702.405.7223

If you’ve never been to an all-male revue before, you might want to start at Thunder From Down Under, arguably the hottest show on the Las Vegas Strip at the moment, featuring a wide array of Australian dancers who fulfill the audiences’ various fantasies. Hot cowboys? Check. Hunky firemen? Check? Sexy vampires? Yep, they’ve got those, too! The noise level may be way more than you’re used to—the ladies at these shows tend to rival the decibel levels of planes landing at McCarran International Airport. –KM Excalibur, 18+, 702.597.7600

What It Means to Be Human

Luxor attraction takes a deep dive into our anatomy You can view it as a learning experience. You can view it as entertainment. Either way you choose to view Bodies … The Exhibition at Luxor, you’ll walk away from the attraction with a better understanding and appreciation for that body that actually just carried you through said exhibit. Bodies is human anatomy come to life in a unique, curious and teachable way. Put through a method known as polymer preservation, 13 real, whole-body specimens and more than 250 actual organs and body parts are on display (as well as skeletal structures). The self-guided, walkthrough experience is also chock-full of facts you can read throughout the exhibit. Every drop of blood in the body passes through the heart

once per minute. The tongue is made up of 16 individual muscles. The kidneys filter impurities from the blood at a rate of 15 gallons per hour. See what a lung looks like after years of smoking (guests that do smoke have the chance to toss their packs of cigarettes into a clear plastic box as a sign of a commitment to quit); what a liver looks like from cirrhosis damage; what the brain looks like after suffering a stroke; what organs look like from overeating or lack of exercise. The exhibit is also divided into sections so guests can explore the body’s muscular, skeletal, circulatory and respiratory systems. A highly sensitive exhibit explains and shows fetal development (this is a room you can choose to skip entirely).

For an extremely timely exploration, Bodies recently added a few displays that explore the effects that COVID-19 has on the body. Read about what the virus does to the circulatory system, the reproductive system, the respiratory system, the digestive system and more. Perhaps the most meaningful quote on display says, “Why all this interest in the human body? The answer to this question seems quite clear to me: your body is the only thing you can carry with you from the moment you are born until your very last breath.” So why wouldn’t you want to learn as much as you can about your body, right? And that makes Bodies … The Exhibition a mustsee. –Kiko Miyasato

How the West Was Fun There’s a spirit of infectious fun that hums through the crowd even before Atomic Saloon Show starts. The setting—looking like a Wild West saloon, with audience members both at floor level and in the balconies—just immediately puts you in a mood to have a great time. And when the singing cowboy comes out, belting out one of the raunchiest tunes you’ve ever heard, you are all in. The show, produced by Spiegelworld, follows the slimmest of plot threads—a love story, yawn!—but it’s completely unimportant to the proceedings. It’s more a framework upon which various performers strut their talents, from naughty nuns to hand-balancing studs to super-sexy acrobats. Tying these all together is host Boozy Skunkton, the foul-mouthed proprietor of the saloon who’s not above insulting various audience members. Those who have been to Spiegelworld’s other Strip production, Absinthe, have a good idea of what to expect at Atomic: An anything-goes, un-politically correct good time. And make sure to grab a drink at the bar before taking your seat: alcohol is practically mandatory here! –Ken Miller

A Night to Remember For one of the classiest dinners you’ll have in a long time, make reservations at Edge Steakhouse in Westgate Las Vegas. A lush, elegant design with tall columns and a striking chandelier punctuates the dining area, and puts you in the mood. For appetizers, try the roasted bone marrow with onion jam, wagyu beef tartare or the shrimp cocktail; and order a half roast chicken, striped bass, Alaskan king crab legs, filet mignon or dry-aged New York Strip

for your entrée. Sides are pretty decadent, including stuffed portobello mushrooms with Boursin cheese; and a black and white truffle mac and cheese. Or, get all the courses with one of Edge’s several Chef’s Selections prix fixe menus, with filet, wagyu strip loin and others in three- or six-course options. You can also choose three- or five-course wine pairings for a very reasonable price. –Nina King Westgate Las Vegas, 702.732.5277

By the Sea

Take yourself into a gorgeous Greek restaurant When Estiatorio Milos closed in the fall at The Cosmopolitan, a deep sigh surely was issued from all the fans of Costas Spiliadis’ Vegas restaurant, where countless dishes and dinners were served up through the years. That sigh undoubtedly transformed into one of relief when they found out Estiatorio Milos was reopening in spring at The Venetian in a lovely new space on restaurant row. The Vegas outpost of the global brand entirely remodeled the space at The Venetian with wood and marble, creating a light peaceful environment that nonetheless buzzes with happy diners.

.14. 5.30.21 LAS VEGAS MAGAZINE

Past an inviting bar, there are two beautiful market areas displaying both the incredible array of fruit, veg and herbs, and the fresh fish used in Estiatorio’s dishes, all in front of a bustling open kitchen. In addition, you’ll find a room dedicated to making the restaurant’s yogurt. What should you be on the lookout for when ordering? A new raw bar offering such things as big eye tuna sashimi and tartare, plus ceviche. And the Milos Special piles thinly sliced and lightly fried zucchini and eggplant with accompanying kefalograviera cheese and tzatziki. It’s just superb.

A Greek salad has all the classic ingredients, plus barrel-aged feta. Grilled octopus and mushrooms, Holland pepper and fried calamari are all sure to whet your appetite for grilled whole fish or fish encased in salt and oven-baked. For the red-meat lover, ribeye, filet mignon and Colorado lamb chops all come with Greek fried potatoes, all available with sides such as a Santorini fava purée, asparagus and broccoli. For dessert, traditional baklava comes with ice cream and pistachios. The Greek yogurt with Kythirian thyme honey is delicious without being overwhelmingly sweet. –Nina King

Hot Ticket in Town It’s rainbow-colored skies above the Luxor’s North Pool as the famous LGBTQ+ pool party Temptation Sundays is back for its 11th season. The event pops off every Sunday beginning at 1 p.m., and both hotel and nonhotel guests must make reservations in advance (space is limited). Everyone is welcome to jump on it at this popular pool party—just bring an open mind and heart and get ready to get on down to live DJs, special guest performances and more. –KM Luxor, 21+, luxor.com/TemptationSundays

The “instant” bacon (a five-spice pork belly) appetizer at StripSteak might be worth the trip alone. However, this widely popular plate is also just a precursor to the comfort-food delights combined with chef Michael Mina’s elevated culinary touches. The menu piles up steakhouse classics like a filling BLT wedge salad, oysters on the half shell, shrimp cocktail, gigantic seafood platter and a juicy Mary’s brick chicken entrée. But the star of StripSteak is, of course, the steak. All cuts—filet mignon, flat iron, bone-in ribeye, New York strip and dry-aged ribeye—are cooked over a wood-burning grill, so the sear and char are perfect. Big spenders and real meat lovers will want to order the Mishima A5 Japanese rib cap and slice it up like buttah! Guests can add the tasty StripSteak sauce or béarnaise or black truffle butter to any cut, too. If you still have room, we highly suggest the beignets for dessert especially since they come with a trio of delicious dipping sauces like vanilla crème brûlée and chocolate. –Kiko Miyasato

A Super, Hero Adventure With all the hype, movies and TV shows recently released under the Marvel Universe umbrella, fans of the franchise can geek out when visiting Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N.

Brianna Lindabury

Cocktail server is having fun under the sun Born and raised in Las Vegas, Brianna Lindabury could not wait to work in the hospitality industry. As soon as she turned 18, she landed her first job as a hostess for a popular Stripside restaurant. Once she got her feet wet, she literally decided to get her feet wet by applying to be a model cocktail server poolside. In 2016, she joined the M Resort pool and later moved her customer service talents downtown, where for the past three years she’s been a model cocktail server at Citrus Grand Pool Deck at Downtown Grand. “I love being outdoors in the environment,” Lindabury says. “I like to be that one person that’s there for the guests to take care of them. It’s nice, too, because people come back to see me again. That’s what I love about the job.” She also loves how intimate and fun Citrus is. “I’m not a huge fan of the bigger dayclubs, but here I love it because you get locals and many returning visitors,” she says. “We have a lot of

pool parties, too. We’re a preparty for the Life is Beautiful festivals, we have live music at night and DJs on the weekends. It’s really fun.” For Lindabury, fun away from the job means country music and line dancing. She’s been line dancing for almost three years. Even during the pandemic, when all the country-music bars were shut down, a group of fellow dancers would gather in the parking lots of local parks, someone would bring the music, and they’d all kick up their cowboy boots and dance. But back at work Lindabury trades her cowboy boots in for a bikini—something she loves to wear because, as she says, she gets to work on her tan. And she also gets to do what she loves. “I’m very much a people person,” she says. “I love meeting new people and conversating, having a good time, making sure guests are having a good time. That’s the best part. Honestly, there’s no other industry that I would want to be a part of.” –Kiko Miyasato

1906 Spritz

Drink in the History

Bar serves up cocktails for more than 100 years What’s cooler than The Rat Pack? While the group of men dominated the Las Vegas Strip in both performance and play, they were also known to frequent a bar in the downtown area: Bar Prohibition! at Golden Gate. According to Mark Brandenburg, past owner of the Golden Gate and now Fremont Street Experience chairman, Sammy Davis Jr. drank at the bar often, as well as Dean Martin, because he often traveled by train (he supposedly preferred taking the train versus flying), and the train station was just down the street from the bar. Bar Prohibition! is more than 100 years old, as it was erected at the same time that the Golden

Gate was built in 1906.And while the property has been expanded over the decades and renovated many times over, the bar has remained in the same spot and has, for the most part, stayed true to the original design. Guests can even see the original plaster ceilings and old electrical panels from the 1940s (although certainly not in use!). In 2012, the bar was renamed to its current moniker. “We named it Bar Prohibition!—not Prohibition Bar—with a double play on ‘bar’ to mean ‘prohibit Prohibition,’” Brandenburg says. It’s here that you can taste the spirit recipes of the era with the bar’s specialty cocktails. Order the 1906 Spritz, mixed with Bombay Dry

or Aviation gin, St-Germain elderflower liqueur, Campari and champagne, or try the Lady Luck with Skyy Infusions Blood Orange vodka, peach schnapps, cranberry and pineapple juices and fresh-squeezed lime juice. In a nod to the boys, there’s the Rat Pack Manhattan, a blend of Bulleit rye whiskey, Grand Marnier, sweet vermouth and a dash of Angostura bitters. To learn more about the Golden Gate’s 100-plus-year history and to get a peek at what other artifacts have been preserved and are on display throughout the property, as well as some hidden gems, turn to page 22. –Kiko Miyasato Golden Gate, 702.385.1906

Don’t forget

the sweet potato fries, onion rings and premium milkshakes to complete the experience. Next up, find the most over-the-top hot dog creations in Las Vegas at Dirt Dog, which also expanded recently with a restaurant at downtown’s Neonopolis complex (702.483.5432).

chile spread, and that’s only the beginning. There are also dogs inspired by Mexican elote, a pastrami sandwich and a patty melt, so expect fantastic flavors to satisfy everyone. You can also get dirty at Dirt Dog’s shops at the Grand Bazaar Shops at Bally’s on the Strip and in the southwest valley on Rainbow Boulevard. Those are easy choices, but there’s a new contender for the city’s favorite street-food bite. Culinary titan David Chang has dropped one of his newest concepts on the Strip at The Cosmopolitan’s beloved Block 16 Urban Food Hall. Báng Bar (702.698.2663) is all about stuffing delicious things into Korean flatbread. You can opt for the burrito-style U-wrap with spicy pork, teriyaki chicken or spicy eggplant, or choose your favorite filling for the more compact fold-up sandwich. Add some pickled shishito peppers and creamy chickpea dip and you’ve found another unforgettable, easy-to-eat meal. Let’s keep it casual but graduate to a cozy sit-down dining experience at two of the newest and buzziest destinations off the Strip. Virgin Hotels Las Vegas brought in several brand-new experiences for Vegas visitors, and the street-style Thai food at Los Angeles transplant Night + Market (702.693.5280) has become a fast favorite. Chef Kris Yenbamroong has won universal acclaim for his authentic recipes and bold innovations, and he couldn’t wait to try his hand in Las Vegas. Whole fried catfish with sizzling ginger, chili and scallions, as well as pastrami pad kee mao noodles are turning heads and tantalizing tastebuds at this bright and energetic eatery. And out on the west side at the luxurious Tivoli Village, Ada’s (702.462.2795) has been reborn. Initially a neighborhood favorite for pasta, pizza and wine, it’s been renovated into a Spanish-inspired wine bar with a carefully curated selection and perfectly complementary light bites for an inspired yet relaxed experience. Cheese and charcuterie plates are for sharing, but you might want to keep the smoked salmon rilletes, chorizo croquettes and chimichurri skirt steak all to yourself. –Brock Radke

But what you might not know is that his show contains plenty of family-friendly laughs. Some of them are extremely corny, but hey, dad jokes have their place in humor too. And really, laughs are just a nice icing on this entertainment layer cake.

Harrah’s, 702.777.2782 I’ve been to many shows on the Strip with my parents, and no show made them laugh more than this one. Why? Because Tape Face not only pulled my father on stage, he made him do dance moves I didn’t even know he was capable of. Apparently my mother didn’t either, and was dying laughing. We all

props. As he makes his way through the various setups, his energy and self-deprecating humor win you over as much as the prop comedy itself. Some of the funniest moments here are Top’s reactions when a gag fails to get a laugh. There’s so many jokes flying around that you’re not likely to remember how many you laughed at, but your aching sides will remind you that there were a lot.

When you combine it with great illusions and chuckleworthy humor, you’ve got the complete package.

Caesars Palace, 702.534.3419 Yes, it is definitely for adults only and, yes, it is extremely unpolitically correct. But we’ve yet to attend a performance where everyone around us wasn’t doubled over with laughter—young or old, liberal or conservative. The Gazillionaire and assistant Wanda Widdles will constantly have you saying, “There’s no way they just said that!” When you’re not howling, that is.

Golden Gate 702.385.1906

Golden Gate offers a treasure trove of Las Vegas history By Kiko Miyasato

LAS VEGAS MAGAZINE

As a tourist destination, Las Vegas loves to make way for the new, shiny and monumental. What was once a small desert town has over the decades turned into a mecca for glitz—and with that, many of the city’s first hotels and casinos have been demolished to make way for what guests see in Las Vegas today. But there is one address—downtown, to be specific—that still has roots in the beginnings of this grand city: One

Fremont Street. This is where you’ll find Golden Gate, Vegas’ oldest operating hotel-casino, built in 1906. Back then, it was known as Hotel Nevada, then Sal Sagev (“Las Vegas,” backwards) and, finally, in 1955, after a group from San Francisco purchased it, Golden Gate. In 2012, the property received a thorough overhaul when then-owner Mark Brandenburg and brothers Derek and Greg Stevens purchased it (the Ste-

vens brothers are also owners of The D and the all-new Circa Resort & Casino). Today, guests are still in luck. While the place was given a fresh, contemporary feel, the historic character of the hotel was preserved. And what makes this property so exciting is that guests can step inside and discover original construction and pieces throughout the space. “A lot of existing structure is still here—we didn’t demo everything,” says Alice O’Keefe, director of design for Golden Gate, The D and Circa. “At this point, it’s very much the original bones.” Over time, the property has increased in size, with many add-ons, but wander over to the high-limit slots area—the wood arches are from a part of the original construction—and you’ll find a small peek-a-boo door where, when opened, you can see some of the hotel’s original concrete wall. Step further inside and you can also spot a fountain that still has the original tile—uncovered during construction—that would have been in the old courtyard area. More historic pieces can be found in Golden Gate’s lobby area, including old slot machines from the 1940s through the ’60s, gaming ledgers, poker chips, chip racks, hotel room keys, guest ledgers and even some old whiskey bottles from the early 1900s that were found

in the walls during renovations. While some re-created period-piece furniture is placed around the check-in area, there are also a few vintage pieces, like ornate mirrors from around the 1950s and an old hotel neon sign. It was once on the outside of the building, but was restored, brought inside and placed behind the registration desk. On the casino floor, where the gaming tables are located, as well as Bar Prohibition!, look up and you can see an original two-way mirror on the ceiling, where a crawl space was used so employees could keep an eye out for card counters and cheaters. Need even more nostalgia? Guests can rent one of 10 original rooms (back then it cost $1 per room). “These really highlight a part of history,” O’Keefe says. While the rooms are much smaller,

it’s cool to see original features like the tile in the bathrooms. “Personally, I think we don’t preserve enough. History is so important to capturing time. It’s about honoring where we’ve come from. And people can come to Golden Gate and see history—feel it, touch it. It’s not just a story.”

We were very happy there. Are there similarities between working on Zumanity and Atomic Saloon Show? At SpyMonkey, we are very edgy clowns. So when we were doing it, it really was something else for the Vegas audience. Cut to when (Spiegelworld) opened Absinthe, we saw that and thought, boom, this is happening. The Vegas audience is now ready. I suppose in some ways there were all sorts of shows that paved the way for that step to happen. What was it like creating the character of Boozy Skunkton? It’s been an interesting journey and I’m still finding it, I find things every day and I’m always working on it. I’ve really fallen in love with her, but she’s me. When you work in clowning, it’s kind of like the heightened version of yourself. In one sense she’s like a ferocious dog, and in another she’s this vulnerable little piglet who desperately wants to be loved but isn’t quite sure, she doesn’t know how. But she’s an ongoing, longstanding love affair for me and I do enjoy playing her every day. We’re doing a lot of shows now, 10 shows a week, and it feels really good.

A Very Nice Touch

Luxury meets retro at this Las Quintas stunner Now here’s something you don’t see every day! It’s luxury-meets-retro at this home in a gated community, where a portion of the home has been dedicated to the look of a 1950s-inspired diner, complete with authentic-looking booth, black and white checkered floors, and swivel bar stools situated along the iconic-looking teal soda bar. It’s an irresistible touch, to be sure, but there is also plenty more to appreciate in this impressive home.

Nevada Properties, makes you feel at home from the minute you arrive, with its circular driveway, four-car, air-conditioned garage with separate entry into the guest side of the house. And it’s hard to not be impressed, with the tall ceilings beckoning you to come in and experience all the home has to offer. The four bedrooms and three bathrooms ensure a feeling of privacy, regardless of how large your family is. A real highlight of this residence is its master bedroom, massive with beautiful flooring and its own fireplace. And there’s not one but two beautiful, spacious family rooms, il-

luminated by plenty of natural light. (If you want something that feels a bit more intimate, no problem—there are two more fireplaces nearby.) What will really sell you on this home, though, is its backyard, full of impressive upgrades, including a pool, spa, built-in barbecue and cooling misters for the blistering heat of summer. The mature landscaping surrounding the home only adds to its appeal, as well as giving the homeowner a real feeling of privacy and escape. –Ken Miller 3897 Placita Del Lazo, $774,750, 586.419.7174, License No. S.0182839

Two-Tone Techniques It seems like home designers can never “agree” on a style and color palette for kitchen cabinetry and once everybody’s on a given bandwagon, they decide to switch it up and go in another direction! Today’s trend of two-tone cabinets offers something for everyone, and endless customization options. Realtor Meghan Jorgenson notes, “Everybody’s tastes are so different. A lot of the two-tone cabinets I’ve been seeing in newer homes have upper cabinets that are white and lower ones that are a darker color or a blue shade.” –AD

A Clean, Neat Look Like most things in the home design world, countertop preferences are cyclical. While granite has been the go-to choice for what seems like forever, it’s now time for quartz countertops to shine, quite literally. Realtor Tamara Heidel has observed, “Quartz is more popular than granite lately. The modern vibe is more focused on clean lines. The quartz can even have sparkle in it for greater design options. People like that really neat and clean look.” –AD

While Realtor Tamara Heidel is the owner and broker at her own boutique brokerage in Las Vegas, she’s quick to remind clients she’s a member of “Team Heidel.” She exudes the it-takes-a-village spirit when she genuinely raves about her team of real estate experts. “When you get one of us, you get us all. It’s a very intimate and caring process with Team Heidel. We love what we do and we love our clients. I know it sounds so clichéd, but it’s true.” Heidel recognizes that while most buyers focus their attention solely on purchase price, there are a lot of extra things they forget about. “It’s the repair costs, the extra fees; it’s figuring out the moving, the logistics if they have a house to sell. It’s all those little things I think they don’t consider.” Her first conversation with prospective buyers addresses their wish lists and her second verifies qualifications and feasibility of purchasing what they desire. Her third conversation helps buyers address the myriad items they may not have considered. “I promptly send them a net sheet with an estimation of all of their costs and what they can expect up front, which eliminates a lot of problems.” Team Heidel’s goal is to treat clients like family and their business built on referrals is a testament to their success in that mission. –Allison Duck

Vegas experience will look like.

You may notice some guests (including yourself) headed straight to the elevators. That’s because contactless check-in is no longer a thing of the future. At MGM Resorts International properties, check in on your phone when you get close to the resort, and you’ll be able to pay and get a digital key. You can also check in with a contactless kiosk option and with traditional front-desk options. During the pandemic, Caesars Entertainment rearranged front-desk areas and lines to aid in social distancing, and provides hand sanitizer. Some hotels installed plexiglass at the front desk.

Hand sanitizer, everywhere! Every hotel was required to have stations for hand sanitizing throughout. MGM Resorts’ properties even offered new handwashing stations. You’ll notice that some employees might be masked and some might not (depending on vaccination status) and, if their job requires it, gloved. This goes for those employees you see and those who labor behind the scenes, in restaurants, loading docks and other areas. Employees undergo a health self-screening daily.


During the gradual reopening of shows in Las Vegas, many performers had to move to larger venues because of social distancing guidelines. Now those performers can return to their designated showrooms, including Carrot Top, Piff the Magic Dragon, Jabbawockeez and many more. In addition, it will be easier to get tickets, as all shows are now allowed 100% capacity. And from roller coasters to art exhibits andziplines, it’s all systems go for the Strip’s attractions. Keeping everything sanitary will still be a priority, but get ready to enjoy the Strip as you did before.

What a difference a year makes! In 2020, there was little, if any, attendance allowed at sporting events across the country (and none whatsoever in Las Vegas sports venues once the shutdown of the Strip was announced). Now, not only are your favorite teams back, there will be far more tickets available, as maximum capacity is now allowed.

Get ready to enjoy the Vegas dining like you remember. With the 100% rollout, not only are your favorite restaurants ready to fill to capacity, so are some of its buffets, including Bacchanal at Caesars Palace, MGM Grand Buffet and Wicked Spoon at The Cosmopolitan. And nightclubs have returned, but the usual operations have significantly changed. For example, at Omnia at Caesars Palace and Hakkasan at MGM Grand, touchless menus are now the norm via scannable QR codes, and currently, the venues are operated as lounges.

SHOWBIZ WEEKLY LISTINGS

Sensory Appeal Walk into the lobby at Blackout Dining in the Dark (3871 S. Valley View Blvd. Ste. 8, 702.960.4000), and you’ll be walking into an adventure for the senses; well, except for the sense of sight. Patrons first make a series of choices that help guide the chef into the creation of your meal. Then they are led through an area that acts much like an airlock, but just for light, and into the completely dark dining room.

Thrilling Millions Close your eyes and think of Las Vegas. What are some of the images that come to mind? It’s likely that one of the first things is the iconic Fountains of Bellagio (Bellagio, 866.906.7171), which is often featured in film, television and ad campaigns. Not only is it an elegant water show and a beautiful sight to see, but it’s also an experience. As the water shoots into the sky and sways, it’s meticulously choreographed to songs by classic Vegas entertainers, such as “Viva Las Vegas” by Elvis Presley and “Luck Be a Lady” by Frank Sinatra. But the Fountains’ repertoire includes more than 20 songs, so if you hang around for a couple of viewings, you’ll never see the same show twice. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff
