Oops, we came early this week! (Life is Beautiful got us excited)

If you’re one of those wonderful people who subscribes to our podcast, you may have noticed that Episode 14 arrived a little early. What can we tell you? Rich and I were excitedly chatting via emails and texts, and at some point we just couldn’t contain ourselves!  (I mean, we’ve all been there, right?)

Rather than try to cover it up, clean it up, or pretend it didn’t happen, we are embracing the premature release. The truth is, we chat quite a bit about Life is Beautiful in this week’s episode, so having some info a day or two early might come in handy for concertgoers.

That’s probably all I’m going to say about it for now. I’ll start doing my usual promotion on Friday. But feel free to take a listen. HOWEVER, if you haven’t heard Episode 13 yet, please don’t overlook it. We’re very proud of both of them.

Remember, you can stream all of the episodes on the Podcast page, right here at The Neon Mohawk.

Looking for a great place to celebrate Cinco de Mayo? Have no fear. My new app, Neon Feast , has you covered. When I surveyed local chefs, critics, restaurant owners and assorted influencers, and asked them where they send their friends and families for Mexican food, the same dozen names were mentioned over and over again. Their picks span all price ranges, and have locations throughout the valley—so there’s something for just about everyone. Are these the best Mexican restaurants in Las Vegas?   I’ll leave that for you to decide. But I’m confident saying that each of the places below is an amazing Mexican restaurant with a serious fan base in the local F&B community. To make them a little easier to organize, we’ve divided them into separate lists for places located on or off The Strip. You can find more information on each of them on the Neon Feast app, or at NeonFeast.com. Top Off-Strip Mexican Restaurants Bajamar Seafood and Tacos (Multiple Locations): Las Vegans have tw

Buddy V bringing TWO new concepts to The LINQ

Image
Chef and baker Buddy Valastro, who already operates three Las Vegas businesses and multiple cake vending machines on The Strip, has two more concepts coming to The LINQ Hotel and Linq Promenade. And he’ll be channeling his home state of New Jersey at both. Speaking to the Food and Loathing podcast at his Grand Canal Shoppes Italian eatery Buddy V’s , Valastro shared some details on the previously announced Boss Café, and spilled the beans on another upcoming outpost that will be called Buddy’s Jersey Eats. Valastro says The Boss Café will be focused on a pair of items: pizza, and fresh mozzarella (which will be made on site and incorporated into signature sandwiches). “I have a new pizza that I’m going to be launching,” he explains. “I’m coining (the name for) it, bakery pizza.” “It’s kind of like a pan pizza. It’s a cross between, let’s call it a Sicilian and a focaccia. And I’m doing it kinda upside down. So I’m going to top it with mozzarella and provolone, so you get that nice sh

Chef James Trees has big plans for the next year and a half. Esther’s Kitchen is moving. Its current location will be converted to an upscale French bistro. And its current prep room and storage area could become an Italian grocery. For those who missed the livestream, those are just few of the things Trees told the Food and Loathing podcast at Tony Gemignani’s International Pizza Expo pre-party Sunday night at the Downtown Pizza Rock location. (For those who want to catch up, you can hear all of the details on Ep 43 of the podcast, “PizzaLeftovers (Again)”   -- or just keep reading for the bullet points.) Trees began by confirming that he’s purchasing the building on the corner of Main and California Streets that has was home to the Retro Vegas antique/furniture store. “We have the great neighbors Bill and Bob who have been part of the downtown scene since the early 90s, since they bought the property at Retro Vegas,” James said of that deal. “They are now ready to retire,
