NOTES
From the Editor The Next Big Step
I’ve made no bones about it in the past: I’m an America’s Got Talent geek. I’ve been watching since very early on (back when there were only three judges!), and not just because the NBC reality competition is wildly entertaining; it’s a look into the future of Las Vegas entertainment. After all, even those who have not won the million dollars on the show (and a headlining show in Las Vegas) have found a home here. It’s not an exaggeration to say Las Vegas’ entertainment scene owes AGT a great debt. And if you’re a fan like me, you’re going to be very excited you visited this week. AGT launched its first extended residency this week, a variety show that mirrors the show itself, featuring both former winners and runners-up. America’s Got Talent Las Vegas Live at Luxor (“A Winning Show,” p. 30) promises to be a huge hit here, a wonderful complement to the AGT performers who now populate the Las Vegas Strip. But that’s just the beginning of the entertainment we’ve featured in this issue of Las Vegas Magazine. Check out our coverage of shows like Penn & Teller at Rio (“Mondo Magic,” p. 49), one of the longest-running magic residencies in town; Atomic Saloon Show at The Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian and Palazzo (“Yee-Haw!” p. 32), a production from the folks who brought you the classic
Absinthe; and The Terry Bradshaw Show at Luxor (“Having a Ball,” p. 10), featuring the Hall-of-Fame quarterback in a one-of-akind production. We’ve also taken special care to highlight some of the best places to eat in town, because this is one of the best restaurant cities on the planet. Planning a super-special night? Make sure to include Vic & Anthony’s Steakhouse at Golden Nugget (“A Stunning Experience,” p. 16) or the Eiffel Tower Restaurant at Paris (“So Very French,” p. 13). If you love your mid-morning meals, definitely check out Catch at Aria (“All About Brunch,” p. 24). And if you’re a fan of football, make Hooters your headquarters (“Game the Right Way,” p. 12). Make sure not to skip some of the only-in-Vegas attractions we offer, especially Lost Spirits Distillery (“A Spirited Adventure,” p. 20), a new arrival at Area15 that will redefine distillery tours as you know them. Another new arrival, The Original Immersive Van Gogh Exhibit at The Shops at Crystals (“A New Perspective,” p. 14), a look at the master like you’ve never seen before. From entertainment to food to attractions to you name it, Las Vegas is an ever-evolving city, and you’re a huge part of that. However you decide to spend your time here, we’re glad you’re part of it.

He’s also a key figure in the development of Green Valley, which is why Green Valley Ranch has its own restaurant dedicated to his legacy: Hank’s Fine Steaks & Martinis. To have a meal here is to be introduced to Hank’s high standards. Every aspect of your meal, from the impeccable décor to wonderful service to amazing food, is something you’ll

remember for years to come. This is classic steakhouse fare done to perfection. Any starter you pick will make you smile, including the crab cakes smothered with Cajun remoulade, the lobster chowder jampacked with applewood bacon, corn and Yukon gold potatoes, and the French onion soup, covered with Swiss, Gruyère and Parmigiano-Reggiano. You’ll even find shrimp tempura. Hank’s has any cut of steak you want—filet mignon, bone-in-filet, Kansas City strip, T-bone, ribeye. There’s also American bison and melt-inyour mouth Kobe carpaccio. Of course, you can
go in a different direction and be just as satisfied with the buttermilk fried chicken, Niman Ranch lamb chops and veal chop. Seafood fans will definitely want to try the Dover sole, served with Meuniere or oreganata, the Alaskan halibut or the Faroe Islands salmon. No matter your entrée, don’t forget classic sides like asparagus, mac & cheese and grilled tomatoes. One more note: For a limited time, Hank’s is serving stone crab. If you’ve never had this delicacy, trust us: This is the place you want serving it up. But hurry! –Ken MIller Green Valley Ranch, 702.617.7777

Having a Ball Millions of football fans know and love Terry Bradshaw from his pregame antics on Sunday mornings, and he carries that same infectious spirit into his show on the Strip, The Terry Bradshaw Show. It’s a combination of songs and storytelling, with an audience Q&A. Over 70 incredibly entertaining minutes, Bradshaw, with the help of a live band and backup singers Anne Martinez and Lorena Peril (who both also perform in Fantasy on the same stage), makes it clear that football is only one of his loves. At his heart, he wants to entertain people. So yes, you’ll get lots of football stories, and yes, you’ll hear a lot about how football was better in the “good old days.” But you’ll also hear a singing voice that has delivered a Billboard hit in 1976 with “Lonesome.” Bradshaw clearly loves country, but he also belts out some great blues and Everly Brothers classics. The Q&A is reason enough to buy a ticket; Bradshaw is very quick on his feet, and ready to take any question that comes his way. He may shock you with his candor, but that’s who Bradshaw is. –Ken Miller Luxor, 702.262.4400

Try them all—after all, you’ve got time. For those who want something a bit different, there’s the big fish sandwich on a hoagie, traditional chili, shrimp and fish tacos and steamed shrimp. –Ken Miller OYO Las Vegas, 866.584.6687

So Very French
Paris landmark is a fine destination for dinner For a real taste of France in the U.S., make dinner reservations at Eiffel Tower Restaurant. Venerated chef Jean Joho has designed a menu that will give Vegas diners a meal they’ll return for again and again. Start with drinks—you’ll never go wrong with a mule, and the raspberry mule here is fresh and light with vodka, raspberry liqueur, ginger beer and lime. And the long wine list will give you plenty of options for vino with every course. Before your main course, indulge in decadent, slow-braised, smoked pork belly; sautéed N.Y. foie gras; or fricassee of escargot with herb gnocchi; and a potato leek purée (because it is

a French restaurant; you know you want to try escargot). And the grand seafood platter brings lobster, shrimp, crab, oysters and clams to the table. If you’re a seafood lover, this is for you. A creamy French onion soup is made with braised oxtail with Parmesan croutons. There are plenty of entrée options for you, too, from the slow-roasted filet of salmon in a pinot noir sauce to the Rossini-style filet with foie gras. The broiled beef tenderloin filet mignon is also served in two sizes, “The King” and “The Queen,” in case you are extra-hungry. Go ahead and add on a caviar tasting if you are so inclined. Beef Wellington is quite popular. If you are more
in a poultry mood, order the roasted chicken with parsnips and stone-cracked corn. And for dessert, enjoy a selection of macaroons or classic crème brulée. To get the full French experience, order a souffle, which the restaurant specializes in. There are four to choose from—Valrhona chocolate, classic Grand Marnier, Sicilian pistachio or apple crumble. The chocolate souffle is also available on the threecourse brunch menu (Saturday and Sundays starting at 10 a.m.). For me, I am exceedingly fond of Grand Marnier, so you’ll probably see me at evening service. –Nina King Paris, 702.948.6937

Light Up Your Night Spread over 4,000 square feet, Montecristo Cigar Bar welcomes all to kick back and enjoy its different seating areas. There’s The Library with a 208-inch video wall displaying sports; The Courtyard with a faux-outdoor, secret-garden feel; and the private, 10-seat Vault Room that can be reserved for cigar, whiskey and dinner pairings. Those that visit Montecristo for its cigar selection will light up, figuratively and literally, when checking out the 400-square-foot humidor, that can store up to 1,000 cigars. Pair any cigar with a glass of Caesars Palace’s own specially bottled Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Select whiskey. And feel like royalty when you order the Louis XIII Perfect Pour—this top-shelf cognac is served tableside in crystal Riedel glassware. Montecristo Cigar Bar also offers an extensive cocktail menu. Then there’s the long list of whiskeys: Irish, Japanese, Canadian, Scottish, Scotch-whiskey blends, Tennessee whiskey, bourbon, American whiskey and 1-ounce pour flights for those that want to explore. It’s not all brown spirits, though—the menu also includes a nice selection of vodkas, rums, mezcals and gins. –Kiko Miyasato

That’s Italian! At Rao’s, you’ll find that special ambience and all the flavors of the New York original. However, you’ll also find a lot more room, as the Vegas version has several dining areas. (One is a replica of the N.Y. one.) Try antipasti like fried green tomato caprese with buffalo mozzarella, a real treat for vegetarians, or the traditional pork, veal and beef meatballs in marinara. You can get other signature Rao’s dishes, too, like Uncle Vincent’s lemon chicken, a broiled

Steak lovers will want to try the marsala filet mignon, topped with mushroom marsala. And tiramisu is an ending that can’t be beat. But hurry—the restaurant recently announced it will be serving its final meal on Nov. 28. –Nina King Caesars Palace, 702.731.7267
A New Perspective No matter how many times you’ve viewed Vincent Van Gogh’s masterpieces “The Starry Night,” “Café Terrace at Night” and “Irises,” you’ll feel like you’re seeing them for the first time at The Original Immersive Van Gogh Exhibit, a multimedia presentation that projects his works across four walls, on the ceiling and on the floor. The overall effect is powerful, hypnotic and mesmerizing. –Ken Miller The Shops at Crystals, VanGoghVegas.com

A Stunning Experience Vic & Anthony’s Steakhouse stays true to the qualities that have made it one of the most award-winning steakhouses in downtown Las Vegas: Stunning décor reflecting a magnificent restaurant experience, an attentive waitstaff and a killer menu. In a setting like this, it would be almost criminal not to order a cocktail, and Vic & Anthony’s features Manhattans, Sidecars and Old-Fashioneds, not to mention a few surprises like the Spiced Pear, so delicious with St. George spiced pear liqueur, fresh orange juice and Tintero moscato D’asti, and the Full Dose, which lives up to its name with Dewar’s Japanese Mizunara oak cask, Choya Yuzu liqueur, honey syrup, Domaine de Canton and ginger. Now that your tastebuds are ready for more, add an appetizer like filet mignon steak tartare, served with puffed rice chips and pickle shallots; lobster bisque with cognac; or jumbo lump crab cake with chive beurre blanc. For steak lovers, go traditional with a 40-ounce tomahawk, Prime ribeye or porterhouse, or for that next-level experience, definitely check out the A5 program, including the A5 Kobe Hyogo Prefecture (100% Tajima Kobe beef) or the A5 Japanese wagyu filet mignon. –Ken Miller

Sail Away When The Venetian was built, its planners knew right away one element they could not do without: A replica of the Grand Canal in Venice. After all, without it, how would they replicate the gondola ride? It’s arguably the most iconic, romantic experience one can enjoy as part of a trip to Italy. So it would have been sacrilege to not replicate it in Las Vegas. And very romantic it is! It’s still one of the most popular attractions in Las Vegas after more than 20 years.

But it’s not just couples—entire families can also be seen enjoying a song from their gondolier as their boat floats down the man-made waterways. And this is one attraction you’ll want to experience more than once—there are both indoor and outdoor options available. Twice a day, catch a team of gondoliers serenading the crowd along the indoor canal near the gondola turnaround. –Ken Miller The Venetian, 702.414.4300
You may not believe in mentalists; that’s OK. Banachek, the star of Banachek’s Mind Games Live, agrees with you. In fact, he makes it a point to let you know at the beginning that he’s not a mentalist. Rather, he’s just really good with his five senses. He’s also got a standing bet with his audience: If you can prove he’s cheating by use of hidden cameras or microphones, he’ll pay you a handsome reward. Then he proceeds to blow your mind with some pretty uncanny illusions, including one where he and a youngster from the audience bend forks while barely touching them. Enjoy the games! –Ken Miller The STRAT, 702.380.7777

Mark Childers
All roads led to success in Las Vegas It’s all a matter of timing and fate. When he turned 21 years old, Mark Childers got a second job as a barback to earn some extra money. One night while on the job at the Charlotte, N.C., sports bar he worked at, he was sort of thrown into the bartender position. He’s never looked back. He worked as a bartender and manager in Charlotte for about a decade, then in 2014 he sent his resume to Tao Group for a position he thought was in New York. “As fate would have it, it was actually for a job at Lavo in Las Vegas,” he says. “So I got the chance to actually move out to the city that I had fallen in love with long ago.” Early on in his career, Childers visited Vegas many times. “I saw the mecca and I saw it right as I was getting into the industry, so I always had a love for Las Vegas,” he says. Childers moved here for the job at Lavo at The Palazzo, where he spent five years. Today, you can find him at Kassi Beach House at Virgin
Hotels Las Vegas, where he helps run the joint as the assistant general manager. “Kassi—it’s like experiencing a beach house party on the Mediterranean coast,” Childers says. “Beach house vibes with great Italian cuisine.” As one of the managers, Childers says, jokingly, “My job is to make the GM look good. But seriously, it’s about meeting new people and taking care of them. I know that sounds cliché, but if you don’t enjoy people, you’re in the wrong industry. “To be a good manager you have to be patient, self-driven, self-motivated,” he added. “My biggest fear is succumbing to mediocrity. You must have that drive, that passion, that competitive spirit and be better than you were the day before. That fuses with my love and passion for the hospitality industry that has made it a symbiotic relationship. I’m a big believer that if you love what you do, then you never work a day in your life.” –Kiko Miyasato

A Spirited Adventure
Tour a distillery made of fantastic worlds Simply put, it’s one of the coolest things I’ve experienced in Las Vegas. That’s the easiest explanation. But to really know what Lost Spirits Distillery at Area15 is, one really needs to go and experience it for themselves. Until then, here’s a sneak peek of what you’ll encounter. Lost Spirits Distillery’s main function is making booze; lots of award-winning booze. And guests are privy to the booze-making process by touring the facilities. But the tour is not your typical distillery tour … oh no, definitely not. “I thought, ‘What if you could make the boat ride for the Pirates of the Caribbean, but

you could fix the ride by making it so you could stop the boat and get out and drink with the pirates?’” said Bryan Davis, co-founder, inventor and CEO of Lost Spirits Distillery. He has a background in amusement park design and an art degree—his combined love for these mediums shines through in the most spectacular ways. While guests are privy to the spirit-making process and the rooms (one filled to the brim with barrels of rum) and labs associated with the process—you are also able to check out a patented contraption invented by Davis that speeds up the process of aging alcohol—visually this is

Wander through The Village and stop into spots like the Dorian Gray bar—inspired by the opium-fueled dens in the classic novel—and try the Framboise raspberry brandy. “We might be the only serious distillery that doesn’t take itself too seriously,” Davis said. “For our guests, we make sure that whatever we do at Lost Spirits Distillery that guests (have) never seen anything like it before; more than anything else, that’s the driver.” –Kiko Miyasato Area15, 3215 S.

Decadent offerings make Catch perfect for leisurely weekends For a very Vegas brunch experience, Catch has us hooked. The Asian-influenced seafood and steak restaurant that brings a huge celebrity draw to its L.A. and New York City outposts made its star-studded debut at Aria in late 2018. It’s since built a stellar reputation for delicious food mixed with a dazzling ambience. The environment demands attention from the moment you walk through the stunning, 80-foot-long, arched pergola in a rainbow of flowers, lush foliage, and twinkling lights. This entryway has become one of the most sought-after locations to capture those envious Vegas social media posts. The décor, including a beautiful garden-inspired main dining room, serves as a precursor to the cuisine that is deliciously designed to satisfy tastebuds, as well as visually excite. And the brunch menu continues this tradition with aplomb. Kick off the experience with a jolt of caffeine and some healthy, fresh-pressed juices. The toasted almond iced coffee is a must-sip for coffee lovers, with a smooth and silky blend of espresso, almond milk, sugar, vanilla bean, egg yolk, salt and toasted almonds. The green juice does your body good, packed with vitamins and minerals from a blend of celery, kale, parsley, pineapple, orange, and green apple.

locals and visitors is the homegrown Fukuburger (702.217.0758), which has a pair of restaurant locations in Chinatown and in the southwest just off the Beltway as well as a concession stand at Allegiant Stadium. Asian flavors and ingredients mingle with a nostalgic fast-food approach to create memorable burgers here, including the Tamago with a fried egg, crispy onions, teriyaki sauce and wasabi mayo; and the Buta with applewood smoked bacon, American cheese, pickled onions and red ginger. Bavette’s Steakhouse (702.730.6700) at Park MGM, a stylish transplant from the Windy City, serves one of our all-time favorite burgers, an 8-ounce patty griddled to perfection with sharp American cheese, Dijonnaise, thick-cut bacon and hand-cut fries on the side. It’s inspired by the legendary Au Cheval cheeseburger created by the same Chicago-based hospitality company behind Bavette’s, and it lives up to the hype every time. Back in the burbs, DW Bistro (702.527.5200) is known for its innovative flavor combinations, terrific baked goods and sublime weekend brunch. But regulars also love DW for its New Mexico chili burger, topped with jack cheese, jalapeño bacon, spicy and fragrant green chilis, lettuce, heirloom tomatoes and chipotle mayo. It’s an over-the-top combination in every bite. One of Town Square’s newest dining additions is Sickies Garage (702.735.5400), a casual place to catch a game and feast on bold burger creations topped with signature combos like macaroni and cheese and bacon, pineapple slices and fried pickles, cheese curds and fried jalapeños, and Jameson whiskey barbecue sauce plus peppered bacon and cheddar cheese. Sickies takes the classic sandwich to new levels, and you can build your own burger, too. Tie up your Las Vegas burger tour neatly with a visit to Gordon Ramsay Burger (702.785.5555) at Planet Hollywood Resort and take a stab at the iconic Hell’s Kitchen burger, a blended beef patty with asadero cheese, roasted jalapeños and tomatoes, avocado and jalapeño aioli. It’s cool and spicy at the same time, and if it doesn’t fit your personal flavor profile, try the Stout burger with Guinness mustard, Gruyère cheese, mushrooms and crispy onions, or the Farmhouse burger with Dubliner, bacon and a fried egg. Ramsay’s take on America’s favorite meal is one of the most satisfying burgers on the Strip. –Brock Radke

America’s Got Talent Las Vegas Live brings AGT performers to headline Luxor

unbelievable, and we can’t wait to see what comes next.” What comes next is Tavella joining the resident ensemble of America’s Got Talent Las Vegas Live. To paraphrase host Terry Crews, the best of the best from several seasons of both America’s Got Talent and spin-off program America’s Got Talent: The Champions have been assembled for the ul-
timate competition, which also serves as the next evolutionary step in Las Vegas’s variety show history. Tavella joins singer Kodi Lee, winner of season 14, and comedian Preacher Lawson, who serves as host of the proceedings. Season 12 finalist Lawson was featured in The Champions alongside knife-throwing daredevils Deadly Games and elegantly

Season 13 performance artists Duo Transcend turn the stage into a circus ring with death-defying trapeze, diving and roller-skating skills, while season 6 semi-finalists The Silhouettes, who reappeared for The Champions and earned a golden buzzer, bring new meaning to the phrase “shadow play” with expressionistic techniques.

Dance group Light Balance is all about innovative expressionism, combining neon and LED technology with dazzling choreography. Hailing from Ukraine, Light Balance appeared on Britain’s Got Talent before coming to America and garnering a season 12 golden buzzer from Tyra Banks in 2017.

residents Jabbawockeez and Mandalay Bay’s Michael Jackson ONE. Recently added to the lineup are season 16 golden buzzer picks Jimmie Herrod, a singer who made AGT executive producer and judge Simon Cowell a fan of the Annie song “Tomorrow,” and Lèa Kyle, a quickchange artist who absolutely floored judge Heidi Klum. It will be up to Lawson to mix the flavors and maintain the flow of the show, a task he demonstrated he was more than up for with his rapid-fire delivery of more jokes than a mind can process, and ability to hold his own while bantering with Crews. AGT is becoming more than a jewel in Cowell’s crown of talent competition productions. With AGT growing deeper roots in Vegas with America’s Got Talent Las Vegas Live, a solid pipeline of talent now leads from auditions to the Strip. It’s a path trailblazed by Franco, Terry Fator, Piff and Shin Lim. “It’s the pinnacle of anyone’s career there,” said Cowell of Las Vegas in the intro to season 16’s finale. What was once unbelievable for the co-headliners of America’s Got Talent Las Vegas Live, as well fans who can’t wait to see what comes next, has become reality. Luxor, agtvegaslive.com

Atomic Saloon Show is a raunchy, hilarious good time
Distinct characters drive the experience at the Atomic Saloon. That’s not always the case when it comes to the different variety shows presented up and down the Las Vegas Strip. Every stage production gives you something memorable and contains at least one performance that will stick with you for a long time. But after you catch Atomic Saloon Show, you’ll remember their names as well as what they did and how they did it, and how their performance made you laugh or cheer. It starts with the saloon’s roughand-rowdy proprietor, Boozy Skunkton. She’s definitely calling the shots at this Wild West outpost, constantly wrangling and regulating her indifferent employees while fending off outlaws and offering her finest hospitality to VIP clientele, but it’s easy to see Boozy wishes she could run a tighter ship.

Most members of Atomic Saloon Show cast will easily elicit laughter, but some are capable of inspiring awe and admiration. Jean-Louis appears to be the saloon’s mild-mannered handyman, someone to take care of the little things that pop up at this beleaguered operation and a suitor to the equally adorable Sweet Cheeks. But when he gets his time to shine, he confidently reveals an unbelievable physique as well as aerial acrobatics skills that defy descriptions. We don’t remember anyone like Jean-Louis in those old westerns we used to watch.

The first property built in downtown Las Vegas from the ground up in four decades, Circa Resort & Casino has made its mark
What a year 2020 was. Dark clouds seemed to settle over every city, in every state, heck, in every country. But in downtown Las Vegas there shone a silver lining. Circa Resort & Casino opened its doors in October of that year—the first new downtown hotel built from the ground up since

1980, and it brought with it a grateful nod to the past and a hopeful glimpse into the future. In this special story, Las Vegas Magazine explores some of the hot spots across Circa. We talk with owner Derek Stevens as he shares three of his favorite spots on the property. We check in
with the property’s plush steakhouse, Barry’s Downtown Prime, and talk with owner and chef Barry S. Dakake and chef de cuisine Patrick Hodge. And we get a peek at Stadium Swim, open year round. With the full opening of Circa in December, things definitely started looking up; and now it’s in full swing.
From the menu, Chef Patrick would order the wet-aged, bone-in ribeye cooked medium rare with creamy horseradish and atomic horseradish. For his side, tater tot poutine, and the banana cream pie for dessert.
HOW DOES IT FEEL TO OPEN BARRY’S DOWNTOWN PRIME TOGETHER? Chef de cuisine Patrick Hodge: It feels gratifying, but it’s also a learning experience for myself. This is probably the fifth or sixth opening that I’ve been a part of. This is the first, hands down, opening that I’ve been a part of from the

Sundays. I kind of feel like when you meet somebody and you have that connection—we were brought up the same way—that it just clicks. From day one, with chef Barry it just clicked. It’s impossible to not dislike chef Barry. His persona, of who he is—he’s just a caring, loving person.

“One of the things we wanted to do in building the biggest sportsbook is I wanted to do something that was a great ‘wow’ moment for the customer,” said owner Derek Stevens. “We wanted to make sure from a business-model perspective that we really focused in on professional sports bettors—bettors that make large wagers. We wanted to make sure that we addressed all of their needs, but at the same time we felt that we’d be able to address the wants and the desires of a novice sports bettor— for people that are making their first bet. The thought of making your first bet, in your life, in the world’s biggest sportsbook is kinda cool. Our goal is to make sure that when people are in Vegas they have a great sports-watching experience.” Circa | Sports is the largest sportsbook in the world and can accommodate up to 1,000 fans and seat up to 350 people in stadium-style seating. Sports and betting fans will enjoy the 78-million-pixel, three-story screen displaying multiple games and odds boards. Other cool features include private boxes for groups and the on-site studio where the Vegas Stats and Information Network (VSiN) broadcasts daily.
Breaking the record length of the Longbar at sister property The D, Mega Bar is a behemoth drinking destination, spanning 165 feet with more than 50 seats, flair bartenders, 46 double-stacked televisions and more than 100 beers on tap.

Enjoy views of the iconic neon sign while having handcrafted signature cocktails at the elevated lobby cocktail lounge, Vegas Vickie’s, dedicated to the grand dame.
“We always wanted to have some connection to the past,” Stevens said. “So, when we put all this real estate together to build Circa, one of the buildings that we bought was Glitter Gulch. Glitter Gulch is what Vegas Vickie was attached to for 30 years. When we bought it, Vegas Vickie came with the deal. When we demolished the Glitter Gulch, we made sure we took Vegas Vickie down safely and intact. We always thought that Vegas
Vickie was so iconic to Las Vegas. We felt that we wanted to take the sign down and evaluate the integrity of the sign and if it was in decent-enough shape—and it was. Now we get to have a little fun by saying, ‘We took Vegas Vickie down, shipped her off to rehab, got her all ready to go and while she was out we got her a knee replacement so her knee actually kicks every now and then.’ We got her all squared up for the next 30 years.”

More With Less Tiny houses aren’t the only homes where residents should maximize space. The shift toward a less-is-more mentality is continuing on into 2021 as home buyers seek to increase space and decrease clutter via both multipurpose furnishings and design elements. Features like modernized Murphy beds that can be tucked away and furniture including storage benches can bring multi-functional spaces to life with minimal effort. A playroom by day can become an entertaining space with just a bit of creative cabinetry. –AD

Trending Tile Hardwood floors were once the coveted amenity in a home. While hardwoods are still beautiful, modern builders and renovators are opting for tile, including tile that looks like hardwoods. Get the beauty without the fuss. Wood plank tile floors are durable, easier to clean and maintain, plus dog owners no longer have to worry about scratches from Fido. Ideal for the hot Vegas temperatures that can dry out and crack wood, tile is the less-stress flooring option you need to consider. –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

from the stage to come up with more than a half-dozen illusory innovations. The downtime also allowed Teller to convalesce following prepandemic back surgeries, making it easier to make his pain invisible to audience members as he engages in the more physical aspects of the performance.
Audiences will still see him defy death (especially during “Whack-A-Teller”), while Penn maintains his penchant for fire-eating, but for new and returning fans, Penn & Teller present a set of almost entirely new material. You’re welcome! –Matt Kelemen Rio, 702.777.2782
