My name is Mike Myers. I am the owner of Legion Marketing, which is a nightlife, entertainment, hospitality, marketing company. I’m the former managing partner of all the nightlife at the Hard Rock, so I was an owner of Body English and Rehab and Vanity and Rare 120 and Johnny Smalls and Wasted Space. There was no nightlife when I moved out here 10 years ago, so anything that’s up and running as of right now I’ve either seen it built or was here before it was built. I live the lifestyle. I go out to eat every single night. I go to a nightclub, unfortunately, every single night. I can help you skip the lines, skip the bad spots, basically cut the fat.

KA is one of the many shows done by Cirque du Soleil, and while not considered to be the best one in town, it’s certainly an amazing performance. Wet Republic is one the busiest, one of the hottest pool parties in Las Vegas. In its third season Wet Republic booked some of the best DJs in the world on a regular basis, and the crowds and the numbers definitely show it. It has a separate valet for locals and a seemingly open checkbook for booking talent. The Crazy Horse Paris is more like a show of the past with performers on stage and very little crowd interaction. Still, for what it is, the girls are beautiful and you don’t need to leave your hotel. If you’re a gambler and will to spend a lot of money on your hotel room, the MGM does have some amazing suites and villas. The Skylofts are a fairly recent addition to the MGM, which are basically big apartments, mostly two stories with a very contemporary feel and look to them. And nearby is the MGM mansion which encompasses some of the most lavish and secret rooms in Las Vegas; some even have multiple swimming pools inside and they’re upward of 10,000 square feet. One final experience at the MGM is the lion habitat which showcases direct descendants of Leo, the MGM lion that roars at the beginning of every MGM movie past and present. The clear cage is perfectly visible from the casino floor and free to the public to watch.

I can help you skip the lines, skip the bad spots, basically cut the fat. It truly depends on what you like. The Cirque late shows like “”Love” in the Mirage or “O” in the Bellagio, they’re beautiful and they’re playful, and it’s amazing to see how perfectly executed each show is night after night. They also have one called “Zumanity” inside New York New York that definitely is not for children, but it’s cool for stay spots to see if your partner is going to be good in bed or not. There’s “La Reve” inside the Wynn which is actually Dragone who actually started Cirque de Soliel with Guy Laliberté, and then split off from him after the “O” show. “The Lion King” is inside Mandalay Bay. It’s actually shutting down at the end of this year. It’s going to turn into a Michael Jackson Cirque show, you know shocker here’s another Cirque show. “Blue Man Group” is an obviously, very popular show at the Venetian. And there’s typically not too many shows you can’t get tickets for a day off or week off, with a few exceptions. My favorite show in Las Vegas right now is probably the “Love” show. I think the music is amazing. Anything that has to do with Cirque in my opinion, it’s some of the top quality. The “O” show is another one. Once again, it’s a Cirque show. However, just the actual stage and production itself, it’s truly amazing in that they built this. I believe it’s a 20 million dollar stage that works seamlessly, and the shows are so fantastic that they have all live music playing and performing, and it’s the little things like that really get my attention and certainly I’ve seen every show in Vegas. So you know it’s a really something that’s amazing for me to go to see whenever my parents come to town or whenever family comes to town is really and truly amazing.

The weather in Las Vegas is not 105 like everybody thinks. Sure, June through August is way too hot. Wherever you go from air conditioned hotels to air conditioned cabs and limos, to air conditioned restaurants and clubs. Unless you’re actually walking the strip, you don’t even notice.

Actually, my wife has a good rule of thumb: the warmer it is outside, the colder it is inside. So don’t forget to bring a cover up or a little jacket when you’re going out at night. She’s always chilly because the casinos blast the AC to entice the tourists on the strip to come inside and gamble and spin.

For the most part, March through May is beautiful. June through August is too hot and September and October amazing weather again with 80 and calm winds. The winter months are kind of a crap shoot. It’s usually a little bit windy and either in the 40s and 50s. But I happen to love jackets and I get to show them off during those months so, at least it’s not snowing.

Every hotel typically has a steakhouse, sushi, Italian, a fish house, and either a 24 hour cafe and/or buffet. You just have to pick your passion. Usually the price and somewhat the quality and ambience matches the casino. Fancy diner experiences flourish at the Wind and Bellagio. For more casual and fun eateries at the Hard Rock and The Palms. And the truly trendy, hipster locations about the Cosmopolitan. If you are looking for the best bargains then head to downtown. You can find good food at better prices because the rent isn’t so high. So sometimes that translates into more money spent on ingredients and quality. But in my experience, you get what you pay for in Las Vegas.

Some great spots around town. The Bellagio has Yellowtail which is fantastic sushi and japanese fusion food. The Bellagio has Prime. Aureole at Mandalay Bay has an amazing 50 foot wine fairy that will go and- if you order a bottle of wine they will hoist her up on a pulley system so it’s a pretty amazing experience. Next you have swans that are out back that you can feed while you are inside the restaurant. One bit my mother once.

Next on top of Mandalay Bay is beautiful. They actually have a night club that’s connected to it. Inside the Luxor, there’s no beautiful restaurants at Luxor so you can pretty well skip that. Monte Carlo has a Diablo’s which is up front which is a more casual kind of bar, kind of restaurant area. Inside they have Andre’s which is a really nice French restaurant. Aria has Todd English P.U.B. which is actually like bar food but it’s the only bar food place in all of Aria so it kills it during the day. American Fish is the one of the best menus I’ve ever seen inside Aria.

At the Cosmopolitan STK is super popular. Scarpetta is a really popular restaurant. Milos is that great fishery inside the Cosmopolitan. Venetian has TAO, but that really more of an atmosphere than it is great food. Not that the food isn’t great but that’s not the reason why people go there. LAVO inside the Palazzo has the best meatballs in town. Palazzo has Sushi Samba which is really like kind of a hidden gem. They have one in New York and one in Miami but the one in Vegas to me is a different atmosphere because it’s actually inside the mall, inside the Palazzo which the mall is completely dead and the Sushi Samba just has fantastic atmosphere. There’s always good looking people, there’s a great bar that’s right inside, they have a lounge that’s inside the back called Sugercane. So, that’s another great hidden restaurant.

First and foremost, when you mention the Hard Rock, you gonna mention partyin’ so you will probably mention Rehab. Rehab is the sunday pool party that was created seven years ago that has had every celebrity, every DJ, every hip hop act, every person that’s ever been to Las Vegas in the last 8 years has heard of Rehab or has been to Rehab. It’s the kind of place that will do a million dollars on a sunday during the day. Vanity is a new night club at the Hard Rock. Its run by the same people that run Rehab. It replaced Body English which the old night club at the Hard Rock. The best restaurant by far and away is Nobu, the only Nobu in town. It’s as big of an attraction as the night life itself. And then the Hard Rock just expanded within the last year. They added the HRH tower which is an all suite tower and they added a paradise tower which is, they have some suites in it especially some suites which connect to the pool on the lower floors. However, the paradise tower is basically just some extra hotel rooms, the HRH tower is actually a really impressive tower.

Before the only highlights at the Tropicana were the location and the proximity to the MGM. It’s claim to fame was that it has been there forever and that it’s on the corner of the Tropicana and Las Vegas Blvd. Other than that, there wasn’t really anything there. Nicky Beach and Club Nicky are going to open up inside the Tropicana. Nicky Beach is a very popular pool party/just pool in general that probably has fifty locations around the world: Miami, they have them in Cabo, they have them in San Trope, they have them basically everywhere. It’s just, basically, an all white towel, all white daybed version of a pool party. It remains to be seen if that pool party will be popular in Vegas. To me it looks like just a bunch of white towels laying on the ground, and in Las Vegas that just wont cut it, but like I said, once again, only time will tell if I’m correct or if they’re correct and this is the next big thing.

Stripper locations, the easiest answer is strip clubs, and we have a whole bunch of them. The Rhino is head and shoulders above the rest. Not only has it been voted the best stripclub in America for the last five years, I don’t know anyone who would ever dispute that. It is an absolute phenomenon. Then there’s The Sapphire, which is the biggest strip club in the world. That doesn’t necessarily guarantee the best quality, however typically they have the most girls. Our newest strip club is Larry Flynt’s Hustler Club, which is so big, and so bad, that they actually make their employees park out front, just to make the parking lot look busier. The Rhino on the other hand, makes their girls park off property and take a shuttle to the back door because it is so busy that you can’t even get in. You can typically tell how good looking your stripper is going to be by the car that she drives. If she pulls up in a Saturn there is no way that she is smoking hot. At the Rhino whenever you go to that parking lot, it’s Lamborghinis and Porsches, and it is all full of Mercedes. Typically, that means that your strippers are good looking.

You just stay on Las Vegas Boulevard and eventually you’ll run in to 50 little places to get married; little white wedding chapels if you will. Most of these places are pretty busy, so you might want to call ahead, but you certainly don’t have to if you don’t mind a little wait. You pay for a package that best suits your budget or level of love; a few minutes later you’re husband and wife and you can get back to gambling. Some places even have gambling inside so you don’t have to wait at all. The second way is a bit more traditional. Almost every casino, at least all the big ones, have their own wedding chapel or chapels. If you’re looking to do it up big, this is the way to go. Casinos can get almost anything for you on your special day as long as your budget doesn’t get in the way. These places are booked far in advance so make sure you plan ahead, and you definitely get what you pay for. The variety of locations, and flowers, and honeymoon suites are almost endless, and for the big weddings, the added benefit of having everybody being able to stay in the same hotel is certainly an added bonus. They typically throw in some free stuff for the bride and groom that you don’t get everywhere else, since in Vegas the casinos don’t need to make all of their money off of your room, or your food, or your drink. Vegas wants all of you together on your special day, so you can get drunk and head to the tables or slots after the reception.

First and foremost, you want to determine what type of vacation it is. Is it a work trip, a reunion, a bachelor party, or a gaming addiction? Each of those will determine where to go from here. For example, if it’s a work trip, you have conventions and you’ll probably want to choose a hotel near or connected to the convention you’ll be attending, assuming you’ll actually step foot in the convention. A bachelor party will most likely want a fun hotel or casino that’ll put up with your rowdy behavior, if not encourage it. You wouldn’t want to plan a bachelor blowout and end up getting and trouble because your group was too loud when you entered every room in the casino when, for the same price, you could be as loud as you want and party with like-minded people at a casino down the street.

Once you determine the nature of your vacation, you can better understand how much help, if any, you’re gonna need. A work trip with dinners you could probably just book on your own with a simple phone call or by visiting the casino’s website. A bachelor party with golf outings and strip clubs and night clubs can get very confusing, especially if you’re not a detail-oriented person or aren’t knowledgable of the local scene. For this case, calling an independent hosting company is probably your best bet. These companies will book your rooms, your transportation, dinners, give entertainment options and suggestions, and, if you want, they’ll even come along as a guide to ensure everything goes smoothly. If you’re a very detail-oriented person, you can certainly call the concierges at your hotel and book your own , pick your own golf course, and then figure out which restaurants you want to go to, and then call them and so on and so on, but the average person who isn’t certain what they want to do on a specific trip, independent hosting company is a nice option and a definitely good resource to have. Oh, and the casino concierges will typically get you a very biased suggestion since they’re told to recommend only those things inside their casino in order to keep you on property.

Determine what you want to get out of your hotel. Is it simply a place to sleep for 8 hours and then you leave or is it a place you will be utilizing all the amenities and dining in the restaurants and shopping in the malls? Once you know what type of experience you are looking for, you need to determine the level of service and quality that you are seeking. Do you like the finer things in life? Are you wearing anything with the name Gucci or Prada on it right now? Will we be doing any gambling while you are in town or is that not your thing? All these questions should help you narrow down your focus. Most people’s final answer boils down to money. How much are you willing to spend each night and for what type of room? And there is just a matter of choosing which one best fits all your criteria. If you are looking for the best of the best then the Wynn Encore is probably going to be your best choice, Bellagio is a close 2nd and the shopping is limited in both of them but both of the biggest designers in-house and some of the best restaurants in the world around every corner. If you are on a business trip, The Venetian or Mandalay Bay are very popular due to their connections to the two biggest convention centers in Las Vegas. They both have a lot of rooms. The Venetian a Palazzo was the largest hotel in the world with 7000 plus rooms and a lot of restaurants with a bigger variety of price point so you don’t have to break your bank on a work trip. If you are here just to party, The Cosmopolitan is the newest hotel with very hip bars and restaurants and pools and is the most popular night club in the country. City Center has a wide variety of entertainment and room product even boasting the Mandarin Oriental boutique hotel for those who want a more intimate experience while still benefitting from being a Jason to a mega resort that has multiple night clubs and lounges for you to choose from.

The answer is very easy, you need to gamble. Doesn’t matter what type of gambling, but what does matter is the casino can track your play. If you are just looking for a free drink, just sit down and play, someone will come by and take your drink order. And as long as you are playing, your drinks will be free. Keeping in mind you cant gamble on nickel every five minutes and expect any free drinks. If you are looking for a more serious comp you need to get a players card, which gathers your information and then keeps track of how much and how long you play. And you get coupons or comps in the mail for smaller gamblers. Real gamblers play at the tables, black jack, roulette, craps and for all these the dealers or pit bosses will keep track of your play. All the players will get tallied and the percentage of what you gambled will turn into comp that you can redeem immediately or save for your next trip.

Las Vegas loves troupes of girls. Night clubs plant tables of girls near big spenders to encourage champagne consumption. Restaurants seat girls in tables near the entrances to entice men to the restaurant. The town is truly girl crazy so take advantage of that.When booking at a club or restaurant, always mention that you are all women and you can even ask for discount if they don’t offer it. The only places that don’t discount are the ones which are catering to you and you alone.The male strip clubs with the shows like Chippendales and Thunder from Down Under. These places you will play full price but then again you won’t be getting harassed by groups of guys that’s probably worth hitting the ATM. Another very popular attraction are the spas that are in every resort. Las Vegas has some of the best spas in the world to pamper and cater to your every need. A full list of treatments is usually available on the resort’s website along with the pricing and contact information.

Vegas does have a few ways for you to drink for free both, by the book and under the radar. The legal answer is you need to be gambling and the casino or bar is happy to give you free drinks. If you gamble enough you can get as much alcohol as you want for free. Even if you win the drinks are still free as long as you’re actually, gambling. The problem with the gambling is that you’re doing just that, gambling and chances are if you gamble, you’re going to lose. They didn’t build all these billion dollar resorts by giving away money. So, how do you get around this? The best way is the everlasting hundred dollar bill method. Step one, get a hundred dollar bill and a friend and sit down at the bar right in front of the bartender, order your drinks from the bartender, and then, order your drinks from the bartender. Nothing outrageous one drink as piece and then wait for them to return to put the hundred dollar bill in the machine. He will see your hundred dollars in credit and assume you will be gambling. Some people will tell you you can use a twenty dollar bill, but I’ve found that the bartender will wait to see how much you gamble before comping you and your friend with a twenty dollar bill and with the hundred it’s usually no problem with the two drinks and especially, because he’s fishing for a tip. After you get your drinks get into a conversation with your friend about whatever. Wait for the bartender to walk away to serve someone else and then, simply cash out and walk away. No need to run because he doesn’t know if you’ve gambled or not so you’re not guilty of anything wrong in his eyes besides not tipping and for all he know you gambled a hundred at a time and lost it all. Repeat the process at a different bar preferably not in the same casino, but definitely not within the site of the same bartender. It’s a little immoral, but then, so’s ten bucks for a beer. Thank you for the tip and the hit. I hope to do more of your hits tonight.

A rule of thumb is stay where you play and the bigger the group, the more important it is to stick to this rule. groups of guys have a disadvantage and they need to be on time or early to most locations especially night clubs because when a place gets close to filling up, the first set of people that are on the do not let in list are a group of guys. So the last thing you wanna be is stuck in traffic when you could be walking into the club. Its usually easier to go in reverse though. Since most guys are less concerned with the exact hotel as much as where they are going that night. Usually a bachelor party is over a weekend. So one of the nights is for a night club, one of the nights is for a strip club and then a pool party during the day somewhere in the middle. Since there a no strip clubs in a casino, that leaves a pool party and night club at where you stay. Most big casinos have both but most don’t have two good ones so you need to determine which one is more important to you and go with that if there isn’t a clue to any better resort. Obviously if you are going to Nikki Beach which is at The Tropicana and the bank at the Bellagio and you are a millionaire then the Bellagio is a clear choice simply because the Bellagio blends with the lifestyle you are probably used to. Once you have chosen where to stay, you need to book your club reservation and pool reservations as soon as possible unless you are OK with paying a premium for bumping someone out of their table. Strip clubs are usually much easier because they want your business and actually prefer a party thats all guys. Night clubs and pools hate groups of guys for the same reason you hate me in a club full of all guys. Follow the same rules for your restaurant selections, since most of the groups of guys don’t really care about the specifics of the meal during a bachelor party, they are only eating to survive the trip. Finally that see to your entertainment that will either end up happening in your room or at a strip club. The entertainment in your room needs to be planned in advance. It could be booked over the phone or through an independent hosting company. Typically, you get what you pay for so don’t be cheap on this. For the strip clubs, all you need to do is pay the cover and go hunting. You do not need to pay beyond this unless you want your own table with bottle service and then you should call in advance. Location isn’t nearly as important inside a strip club because the girls are paid to be there and will go wherever you tell them go because they want your money.

Home to the biggest convention space in all of Las Vegas, The Venetian Palazzo is the largest world with more than 7000 rooms. The reception area is second to none and if you’ve ever been to Venice you’ll truly appreciate how amazing this casino is. From the canal shops to the dining that is indoor yet outdoor looking to the Italian squares and the indoor gondola rides complete with singers and bridges. The Venetian is home to many Italian restaurants, too many to mention but rest assure you won’t go hungry at this resort. Venetian is also home to Tao nightclub, Tao the restaurant and Tao beach all successful and hospitality venues fill up mostly Sunday through Thursday. The Blue Man Group and Phantom of the Opera both play five nights a week, a testament to the size of the Venetian and it’s ability to carry two major shows. And in a separate theaters comedians like David Spade, Tim Allen and Rita Rudner perform to pack houses every night. Out front Madame Tussaud’s famous wax museum creeps people out with how lifelike the statutes are if you’re into that kind of thing.

Once the hotspot of Las Vegas, The Palms has taken the backseat in the past few years but seems prone for a comeback. Rain was the first mega club to gain notoriety nationwide due to the popular TV show the Real World which introduced the mayhem that has Las Vegas to a new and youthful market and from there the Palms’ exploded. Ghost bar and Moon are both on the top floors of the two towers but neither is considered to be a hotspot by anyone in the know, neither is Rain really for that matter. The pool is very popular on Fridays for their “”ditch Fridays Campaign”” that’s about it. There are some interesting themed rooms, like the Barbie room which is decorated in all pink like a Barbie house and then there is the hardwood suite, which has a full size basket court inside it with fold a way Murphy beds inside the walls for stragglers from last night’s game.

Nine Steakhouse is a true phenomenal that is always busy and full of beautiful people perhaps it’s the inventive menu or perfect steaks or perhaps the other two true dining experiences at the Palms, no included the Mexican restaurant or the 24hr Cafe are actually on the top floor of the Towers and hence not very accessible.

On the opposite end of the property is Palms place, which is their attempt to a calmer hotel built during the economic and real estate boom of years past. The building sits most empty, a good place to find a nice room at a nice price if you don’t mind being sort of alone and you don’t mind the long walk to the actual casino itself.

On the lower level of the Palms sits Simon Restaurant and pool neither of which make money except on Sundays for a brunch which has found a nice niche and does very well. Picture young people in their pajamas eating pancakes and drinking from the bloody mary buffet.

The Highlights of Rio Las Vegas: There’s a wine cellar hidden in the basement of the Rio. It’s a true gem in an otherwise forgotten casino, containing one of the biggest wine collections in the United States. The wine cellar is know for its inventive wine and cheese whites and you can also pick up a rare bottle of wine for your collection or a bottle of magnum of Rothschild’s for that special occasion.

Two floors above the wine cellar is Martorano’s Italian Restaurant, known for his bad-boy image and infinity for DJing and cooking at the same time. This nighttime destination is truly the only youthful place to eat at the Rio and it’s next door to the Chippendales show so it’s a good spot to find a group of girls either coming or going to the show. That being said, the Chippendales show is probably the number one attraction to the casino now that the World Series of Poker is said to be moving. But they also put the Chippendale show next to the exits so the casino doesn’t reap all the benefits of the groups of women. Just bad planning I guess.

One shining light at the Rio is their high end suites known as the Palazzo suites. They actually existed before the Palazzo Hotel. They’re big and very nice, they don’t seem to belong at the Rio at all. Many high end gamblers stay there because of the private gambling in the back, where you never actually enter the Rio itself and because it’s part of Cesar’s entertainment they have access to the largest gambling database in the world.

The Wynn resort in Las vegas is head and shoulders above the rest. Its, five diamond five star absolutely the nicest place to stay in all of Las vegas and just made it better by building Encore. Encore has excess nightclub which is probably the biggest attraction inside the resort itself. Technically, excess is in their shopping mall which is in between the Wynn and Encore. Encore beach club is may be the most expensive pool party in the world.Its about 65 million dollars a build it opened up a year and a half ago and it is just lavish and actually bulldozes its own valet in order to put its pool party there. SW is a fantastic steak house which actually bears Steve Wynn’s initials, has a great view of a different waterfall which has its own show. Although to be honest, the show really is disappointing. Tryst is still a very busy night club even though the crowd is kind of suffering a past couple of years especially with the opening of excess. Tryst does have a 50 foot waterfall inside of it which is pretty amazing to see if you have never seen it before. Its definitely worth stopping by. If I am shopping there, there is not a whole lot of it, its definitely the high end brand names. Encore has a little bit more of the trendy clothing but it is still you know obviously very expensive. They have a Ferrari and Maserati dealership which you basically have to justify even walking in there otherwise you have to pay in to see it as a museum. If you want to spend the most money you ever spent in your life on coffee they have just a regular coffee shop there that, the coffee is like 20 dollars for a cup of coffee and there is nothing special about it and its not great. Just happens to be next to the Ferrari shop inside the Wynn near the Encore. One of the final things there is the Garth Brooks Show which I mentioned before the Garth Brooks show is sold out every single night is one of those where even as a Las vegas local and somebody who is really connected it is still very very difficult to get a ticket because the Wynn takes so many of the tickets for their high end gaming. And all those people wanna go see the show so its definitely, if you have a way to get into it or you want to spend money with the ticket broker its definitely a show to go see. He sits on stage for the first hour and plays all his own songs and in the 2nd hour he sits on stage and plays everybody else’s songs. And the last thing about the Wynn and Encore is that they have their own golf course which is unheard of considering how expensive the land is. Tom Fazio designed, Steve Wynn designed 18 hole golf course with water features and waterfalls and everything I see connect to the resort itself. If you are not staying there you could spend 500 bucks and buy your way on or if you are staying there you can usually get it for cheaper. Steve Wynn is the one who conceptualized the bay resort with the Mirage and one upped himself with the Bellagio and then found a way to one up himself again when people thought it was impossible because the Bellagio was perfect he went and built the Wynn and then one upped himself again and built the Encore. Whatever he does in Las vegas from here on out he could do no wrong he is truly a visionary on Vegas.

I can help you skip the lines, skip the bad spots, basically cut the fat. It is across the street from the Fashion Show mall, so the proximity to that is a stone’s throw away, which is great shopping and it kind of matches the mentality of Treasure Island. Phil Ruffin purchased Treasure Island a few years ago from MGM Mirage Company, and has tried to revamp it, has tried to put in some new, different crowd attractors. He built Gilley’s country bar which is right on the strip, actually connected to the Treasure Island Sirens show and it’s absolutely packed at all times. It’s a country bar on the strip, which I don’t know why anybody didn’t think of that earlier. The other big highlight for Treasure Island would be the Sirens of TI show. The Sirens of TI comes on four times a night during the winter and five times a night during the summer. They actually revamped the show a few years ago; it was a little stagnant where just two pirate ships were going at one another. And now they’ve incorporated really scantily-clad women, hence the Siren of TI. So they brought it a little bit less family, but a little bit more explosions and obviously something for the dads to look at whenever they’re bringing their kids along.

I can help you skip the lines, skip the bad spots, basically cut the fat. The Paris reception is probably the nicest reception or the fanciest reception in town. The Paris really did go all out with chandeliers and crystals and they did a really really good job. The Eiffel Tower restaurant, the lookout tower in the Eiffel Tower are definitely a must see. Inside the Paris Hotel itself are the legs of the Eiffel Tower so it looks like the Eiffel Tower is actually built through the hotel, which is really a nice touch. The Chateau Night Club is their new night club, they just opened it up. They spent 35 million dollars on it which includes a Sugar Factory which is a restaurant and candy shop on the strip. And it also has a fondue bar in the back of Sugar Factory. They have a good mall. It’s very nostalgic if you’ve ever been to Paris. You know, this is one of the themed hotels which you just don’t see that much anymore in Las Vegas. Everything is Italian or everything might be French oriented, but it’s not based around a specific city so whenever you’re walking on the streets or inside on the streets of the Paris, you know there’s something nostalgic about it. Going by a crepe shop if you’ve ever been to Paris and saw often they have the outdoor seating where you can grab a coffee. Those are definitely some of the highlights for me.

The Monte Carlo is actually located in between New York, New York and Aria, which was not a great place to be located, whenever Aria was under construction for three years, but now that it’s actually fully built, it’s actually in a fantastic location. The JabbaWockeeZ were from the show “America’s Best Dance Crew” which weren’t necessarily the best dancers in America’s Best Dance Crew history, however because they had masks on their face, they were the only ones who capitalized on their name. So now, they can obviously be switched in-and-out, and have substitutes, have days off, whereas all the other dance crews were personalities in and of themselves. Diablo’s is a great draw, it’s outside on the strip, they have live music upstairs, weird bar games downstairs, it’s good to watch football games or you know any sort of sporting events, but they also have the “Wheel of Death” where you can spin the wheel and you know, get weird shots, or you know, whatever the prize may be. Andre’s is a great French restaurant. In minus five they borrow you, they bring you in and they give you a fur coat, and you go drink inside a freezer. The pub at Monte Carlo ‚Äì another clever name is actually a really-really popular spot, probably the most popular thing at Monte Carlo inside Monte Carlo itself. Not necessarily a destination place, however if you’re staying at the Monte Carlo, you tend to not be the big bottle customer, so they’re actually smart and put in a pub in this location. Brand Steakhouse is probably their best restaurant, they have great steaks, actually a pre-invented menu, every once in a while they’ll go and have a tribute to something. The last thing I attended there was a tribute to bacon. So they had an entire tasting menu, like twelve courses, all dedicated to bacon. Which, I love bacon although, to be perfectly honest I haven’t had bacon since. And that was about a month ago, which I’m sad about.

The Mirage has both beautiful rooms, beautiful pools and some unique features that nowhere else in town has. The first place is when Jim really showcased his vision for las Vegas’s future, their first mega resort, they have the night club Jet which has its own private valley which is fantastic if you are actually point up and dont want to wait in lines. Bare pool which is a topless pool, it is actually a firstly popular top less pool in the Las Vegas. They do a really good Monday there, the best of The Mirage is the bare pool. Revolution is a night club/bar that’s never really took off, we spent a whole bunch of money on it and then put it next to the high end gaming which means you cant turn up the music loud enough on it. Stack is a great restaurant, the secret garden and the Dolphins habitat is probably the most unique thing in The Mirage. You can actually swim with dolphins there you can see lions and tigers, white lions, white tigers and if you stay in the villas you can actually hear the lions roar from the rooms. That’s actually really cool if you are outside or really terrifying if you are really drunk.
