Baguette Cafe
Baguette Cafe is a small cafe, tucked away in a corner of the business park on Sunset between Buffalo and Durango. It’s just north of 215 and accessible from either Sunset or the feeder — and we never would have discovered it without the new sign that can be seen from the freeway.

Hash House A Go Go (Sahara)
Hash House A Go Go is a small restaurant chain that generates a lot of buzz. They make food that people talk about and word of mouth is good for business. It’s so good for business that Hash House A Go Go just opened up a new restaurant (their third location in Las Vegas) at the M Resort in October.

Yardhouse (Town Square)
The first Yardhouse restaurant was in Long Beach, California. The concept proved to be rather popular and they now have multiple locations across California, several in Arizona, a couple in both Texas and Florida and a handful in other states. There are even two locations in Las Vegas: one can be found at Red Rock Resort and the other – the subject of this review – resides at Town Square.

Nu Sanctuary Lounge (mini-review)
On Thursday nights I’ve been going to see new-release movies at the Rave Theater in Town Square and, for the past couple months, whenever I’ve been leaving there seems to be a lot going on at the Nu Sanctuary Lounge. I usually walk past thinking something like, “What is the deal with that place?” …but I’ve never actually made any attempt to find out.

The Grape
The Grape is a wine bar, bistro and wine shop located directly across from the Rave movie theater in Town Square. This might – to someone that lives fairly close to Town Square with a love for both movies and wine – seem like an ideal location for a wine bar.

David Copperfield
Having grown up as a kid in the 1980's, I can recall lots of David Copperfield magic, or illusion, on television (I do not understand why the term magic is a faux pas,) and I remember how big the productions were - it really seemed to me that he was the biggest, most impressive magician in the world.

The Hostile Grape
For some time now I've been meaning to make my way out to the M Resort in south end of the Las Vegas valley to try their wine bar - The Hostile Grape. Since they opened they have been advertising their selection of wines by the glass or by the ounce and a trip was long overdue.

Under The Neon Sky by Jay Rankin
Las Vegas is frequently referred to as Sin City and it wasn’t assigned that nickname arbitrarily. It’s an unusual place…it has all the vices you would find in a regular city and a few characteristics that are a little more unusual. Gambling is legal inside the city limits, prostitution is legal only a short distance away and the alcohol never stops flowing.
