Kenny ‘Babyface’ Edmonds
Talented singer touches hearts of fans Very few artists have been able to impact the entire world of pop music the way Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds has over the past four decades. He has plenty of sexy, soulful hits of his own as a singer and songwriter, but as a producer, he’s teamed with the most legendary names in the business to create classic songs with Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Celine Dion, Madonna, Beyoncé, Mariah Carey and many more. As the co-founder of LaFace Records, he set a new trend in pop R&B and launched the careers of Toni Braxton, Usher and TLC. Now he’s bringing his own personal universe of music to the Terry Fator Theater at The Mirage Dec. 27-29 for a concert experience only he can provide. The Mirage seems like the ideal spot for you, considering longtime friends and collaborators Boyz II Men have been there for several years. I went to see their show (recently) and it’s very good. I’m very proud of them, to think of where they started. We did our first major tour together in 1995, so to see where they’ve taken it and what they’ve done is very exciting and very cool. You’ve written for and collaborated with so many icons. Who are some of the artists that have inspired you most when working together? That’s a big list. You’re talking about Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson, and working with people like Whitney Houston and Toni Braxton. A few years ago I did a record with Barbra Streisand and it was inspiring just to be in the studio with her and hear her voice and see her gift. I think it’s not only about being inspired to write a song but also being proud to be in the business we’re in, making music and touching people with music. That’s the biggest gift you walk away with, that you’re a part of this fraternity of music and artists and you can be in the same room with people who
12 12.22.19 LasVegasMagazine.com
have touched the world. That’s a helluva feeling. You came to town recently for the Soul Train Awards. Are you a frequent Vegas visitor? I used to be. I love Vegas and I’m excited to be actually playing on the Strip, and how that happened was a couple months earlier, I came to see Bruno Mars’ show. I’ve been in the studio working with Bruno and he invited me to come up and see his show at Park MGM. I really liked it. And he said, “You should do Vegas,” because he had just come to see one of my shows. I wasn’t too sure, but he started talking to some people at MGM (Resorts) and the next thing I know, they’re saying there’s an opening at The Mirage. Over the years, I’ve wanted to give (Vegas) a try, and I guess it all fell into place this time. The music you’ve created is timeless. What have you learned about the way your songs continue to resonate with different audiences? Music is forever. You have to understand that what you grow up with stays with you always, and when you get a chance to relive those moments through music,
you want to do it again and again. There’s nothing else like it. One of the things that makes my show special is I go through a medley of songs I wrote for different artists, kind of like a ’90s revue, and there are so many artists I had a lot of success with. That’s a really fun part of the show. Are there specific songs in that medley that you really enjoy performing? They’re all fun. I think for the
most part when people come to a Babyface show they think they’re coming to a night of slow ballads and that they might get bored. And we always surprise them because it’s not that at all. To go through songs by Bobby Brown and Boyz II Men to Johnny Gill and the Whispers and Dru Hill, that’s a lot of energy. And that’s just the guys’ stuff. At some point I’m going to go through the girls’ stuff. I haven’t even touched that for a medley.

TALENT TWO WAYS Lady Gaga isn’t just playing Vegas, she’s revolutionizing the residency. The enigmatic pop artist is closing out the year at Park Theater in innovative fashion, giving audiences two completely different shows to absorb and appreciate. Catch her Enigma production Dec. 28 and 30, a massive production stacked with her biggest hits and even bigger set
pieces that sees Gaga soaring from the ceiling and piloting a giant robot during the performance. Celebrate New Year’s Eve with Jazz & Piano, when she celebrates the Great American Songbook with vintage style, mixing in alternative arrangements of her own music along the way. No matter which Gaga you get, it will be unforgettable and very Vegas.
MUST-SEE Wayne Newton Up Close and Personal is back at Cleopatra’s Barge at Caesars Palace Dec. 26-30, possibly the most cozy and satisfying version of Wayne Newton’s Vegas show in his six decades of performance on the Strip. Mr. Las Vegas hits all the fan favorites and takes the time to tell the stories behind those timeless tracks and the superstar collaborations and encounters that inspired them. He also performs the songs that have meant the most to him throughout a singular career that has spanned music, movies, TV and pop-culture icon status. No entertainer is tied to Las Vegas like Newton is, and seeing him do his thing at the Barge is unlike any other Vegas experience.

New Luxor resident show R.U.N has the David Copperfield stamp of approval. The iconic illusionist stopped in to see Cirque du Soleil’s live-action thriller and visited the cast and crew after the show to pose for a photo. That same night at Luxor, former NBA great and esports businessman Rick Fox jumped into action at the HyperX Esports Arena to complete a 24-hour charity livestream to benefit the Bahamas Relief Foundation. Fox joined the League of Legends All-Star tournament in the arena’s streaming booth and kept his streak going, live on Twitch, with popular gamers Travis Gafford, Hammoudi “Yassuo” Abdalrhman and Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok. Fox helped raise more than $50,000. Vegas Golden Knights Alex Tuch, Nate Schmidt and Ryan Reaves took their turn on the holiday ice rink at The Cosmopolitan, skating and posing for pictures with fans and mascot Chance the Gila Monster. The Intersect Music Festival brought plenty of stars and celebrities to the Strip, and many of them partied the night away at On the Record at Park MGM. Fest headliners Beck and Anderson .Paak were in the house along with soul man Leon Bridges, Hunger Games actor Josh Hutcherson and Vanderpump Rules star Scheana Shay. MGM Grand resident dance crew Jabbawockeez stole the show during a new episode of Saturday Night Live hosted by former Strip headliner Jennifer Lopez. The masked artists hit the stage with rapper DaBaby during both of his broadcast performances of songs “Bop” and “Suge.”

Enveloping the Senses
Singer tailors residency with inventive experience Christina Aguilera’s influences range from Mariah Carey to Marlene Dietrich, but if her Planet Hollywood Resort residency Christina Aguilera: The Xperience reveals anything about the 38-yearold star’s place in the pop diva constellation, it’s that she’s the heiress apparent to Cher. The six-time Grammy winner took her Burlesque costar’s confident flamboyance to a new level, both presenting a multisensory extravaganza for her devoted fan following and enabling Las Vegas to lay claim to the honorific of “Scentertainment Capital of the World.” Although the use of scent in theatrical presentations likely dates back further than

ancient Greece, Aguilera added distinct ambient aromas to each of the respectively different colors and textures of the six different acts in The Xperience. It’s also a feast of fashion, let alone Aguilera’s song catalog, that rivals any of Cher’s more outré couture moments of the ’70s and ’80s. It’s hard to pinpoint the moment when Aguilera became an icon, but once an entertainer’s fans take on a collective sobriquet as the singer’s “fighters” did, there’s no going back to being a mere star. Aguilera added a healthy helping of songs from last year’s Liberation album to the set list at Zappos Theater when she debuted The Xperi-
ence in June, including “Maria,” “Twice,” and her 10th No. 1 dance hit “Accelerate.” She created her own universe for her fighters to slip into, with a retrofuturist design theme and a stage set incorporating her trademark letter X. Reviewers responded ecstatically and lauded her choices of covers and deep cuts that accompanied gargantuan hits such as “Say Something,” “Genie in a Bottle,” “Beautiful,” “Dirrty” and “Ain’t No Other Man;” her dramatic entrance during the first slate of shows while singing “Your Body” from 2012’s Lotus; and the very presence of Cher herself during empowerment anthem “Fall in Line.” –Matt Kelemen

Other elements make Michael Jackson ONE distinct from sister Cirque shows, such as martial arts choreography and fantastical costumes that are technological marvels in themselves. It’s ultimately about the music he made at different phases of his career, though, whether it’s young Michael assuring

A Sweet Side Gig When Lady Gaga came to Las Vegas to launch her resident shows Enigma and Jazz and Piano, she brought along some friends, including Brian Newman, who serves as the bandleader for Gaga’s standards-oriented Jazz and Piano show. Newman has taken advantage of his high-profile Vegas gig to launch his own show, dubbed Brian Newman After Dark, a looser, more laid-back production at the NoMad Restaurant. Newman’s music (including his most recent album, 2018’s Showboat) has always been influenced by old-school jazz as much as classic rock, and with After Dark he combines those elements with the influence of old-school Vegas, bringing to mind the classic free-wheeling late-night shows from icons like Frank Sinatra and Louis Prima. “I just really love the camaraderie and community of musicians from Las Vegas,” Newman told Las Vegas Magazine last month, and the more time he spends in town, the more involved he gets in the local music scene. He’s already right at home. –Josh Bell

Can’t Stop the Beat The Crystal Method and Topgolf Las Vegas go together like big beats and tentpole movies. That is to say, smacking balls from Topgolf’s hitting bays to the electro-anthems of Ken Jordan and Scott Kirkland in the town where they founded their digital duo is as natural as filmmakers drawing on the music genre Jordan and Kirkland helped invent for big-budget action-film soundtracks. Attendees can swing clubs and dance to club music on the occasion of The Crystal Method’s debut at Topgolf’s Toyota Yard, although not necessarily at the same time. Credit The Crystal Method for associating Sin City with the sound of electronica, courtesy of the title of their 1997 debut album Vegas, years before the city’s nightclub scene attracted superstar DJs. They became one of the biggest proponents of the big beat sound, with breakbeats providing canvasses for their audio loop ideas. Tracks such as “Keep Hope Alive,”

“Trip Like I Do” and massive hit “Busy Child” helped popularize the sound, with subsequent albums Tweekend and Legion of Boom demonstrating they were more than a flash in the pan.
Jordan retired from music in 2017, but Kirkland carries on solo and released The Crystal Method’s latest full-length album, The Trip Home, last year. –Matt Kelemen
Forever Young Mac King has made a career of being a big kid, and his show takes you back to that wonderment surrounding magic. From his opening “Howdy!” to the curtain close, you’ll be cracking up while wondering how he pulls off his illusions. King takes the standard “Is this your card?”-type of trick to the next level with a twist that will leave you baffled. And the same goes for all of his disappearance and reappearance tricks, as well as for a mind-blowing rope trick that you just can’t make add up.
After decades in the biz, King has honed his skills, and his zingers are tailored for each audience. He plays off of each unique crowd so every show is different, and participation is definitely encouraged. King’s not afraid to tease his guests, either. After all, this is called comedy magic. So, if you’re looking to laugh and be wowed, this show is a must, with or without the kids. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff Harrah’s, 1 & 3 p.m. Tues.-Sat.

Illusionist does magic only one way: His way It would be a hasty generalization to suggest that all magicians were freaks, but there’s one magician who probably wouldn’t mind that label: Criss Angel. That’s because Angel has an unnatural ability to turn magic on its head, creating a mashup of impressive illusions and rock ‘n’ roll energy during Criss Angel MINDFREAK. And just to freak with your mind a little more, Angel sprinkles a bit of his signature macabre stylings throughout many facets of his show. For example, when entering the theater, you walk into an interactive, choose-your-own-adventure-style hallway; one side is placid, with serene music and sound effects that include tweeting birds, but the other

side is straight out of a horror movie, replete with fog, sinister clown mannequins and zombified creatures, solidfying the idea that this magic show is anything but normal. Yet, that’s perfect, because normal isn’t the Criss Angel way. And say what you will about Angel’s tactics, but it’s refreshing to watch a performer do exactly what he wants to do, and it’s tremendously entertaining. He might even say he’s fulfilling his destiny—why else would anyone keep wielding swords, swallowing razor blades and roundhouse kicking adversaries on stage like a magic Chuck Norris into their 50s? But let’s get down to brass tacks: You’re interested in Criss Angel MINDFREAK because
you want to see some mind-blowing magic. Well, you’ll get it, and it’s literally up-close and in your face. Set up against a backdrop of stateof-the-art special effects and a head-banging soundtrack, you’ll see a straitjacket escape where Angel is suspended upside down over the audience, slipping out of the apparatus in under 30 seconds. Later on, Angel wades into the audience to tell a story about his humble upbringing, then performs a series of coin tricks that calls back to his magical roots. And it wouldn’t be an Angel show without a levitation; the rousing finale is a gravity-defying illusion that took nearly two decades to perfect. So, there’s only one question left: Are you ready? –Alex Haase

Magic Man While the best Las Vegas headliners get standing ovations, illusionist David Copperfield has audiences roaring by the end of his show. That’s because he presents both a classic stage production in terms of showmanship and spectacle, and a progressive entertainment act. Copperfield reigns at the pinnacle of the Entertainment Capital of the World, closely encountering spacecraft and alien life within the MGM Grand, traveling through time and conjuring an ancient carnivore for sold-out audiences inside his 1,800-squarefoot theater, escaping and dematerializing at will onstgage. There’s as much wonder trying to comprehend how Copperfield conceives of tricks as there is in theorizing how he pulls them off; Copperfield is a chronic dreamer who can create worlds of wonder in more ways than one. And in a poignant moment during the show, he weaves a narrative about the nurturing influence of his father, helping audience members find the kid within themselves. –Matt Kelemen

Hold On to That Feeling Las Vegas has been good to Journey. The classic rockers have hit town for extended stays in multiple local venues, and they’re now at home at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, where they return this week in their latest residency. For Journey guitarist and co-founder Neal Schon, the best thing about any Journey show is the crowd’s energy. “It almost doesn’t matter where I’m at,” he says. “If there’s a great audience out there that’s so willing to listen to your music still, and completely into it, that kind of makes the show for me.”
For romance and total ambience, it’s tough to beat the Eiffel Tower Viewing Deck (Paris, 888.727.4758). Not only does the attraction offer one of the most spectacular views of Las Vegas, but, recently, the tower got upgraded with a spectacular light-and-music show.

In Vegas, Journey can play for fans from around the world by staying in one place, and no matter where attendees hail from, they’ll be singing along to pop-rock classics like “Don’t Stop Believin’,” “Any Way You Want It” and “Open Arms.” Journey got a major boost with the 2007 addition of lead singer Arnel Pineda, who’s helped connect the band to a new generation, but for Schon, it all starts with the songwriting. “I honestly believe that we just got a lot of stuff right,” he says. “It’s become classic, and it’s going nowhere anytime soon.” –Josh Bell

Funny Girl Somewhere in an alternate universe there was a TV series titled The Woman Show hosted by a comedian and her wisecracking sidekick that featured a beer-chugging announcer and a recurring segment called “Dudes on Trampolines.” She went on to host a talk show and open a comedy club. This allowed her to hook her equally funny brother up with gigs to fulfill a pact they had made years earlier: Whoever made it would help the other one out. That’s complete fiction, of course, but Jill Kimmel is effortlessly funny and in
this patriarchal universe The Man Show was hiring Jimmies, not Jills. Kimmel, on the other hand, isn’t tethered to a ratings-driven entity and can say whatever she pleases. She can find humor in divorce and putting her dog to sleep, and, like her older brother, grew up in Las Vegas. Kimmel, who got her start in comedy in the mid-’00s, produced a two-date comedy festival in Downtown Las Vegas in April for which she picked the comedians. Now she just has to choose from her own material. –Matt Kelemen
Dreamy Scenes The cast members of Fantasy are more dancers who are topless than topless dancers. Skills are as essential as sultriness for the production, as evidenced by the moves of the showgirls.

The show added a new opening and finale, choreographed by Mandy Moore, with the former set to “Me Too” by Meghan Trainor and the latter led by Peril’s rendition of Justin Timberlake’s “Can’t Stop the Feeling.” –MK Luxor, 10:30 p.m. daily, starting at $39 plus tax and fee, 18+. 702.262.4400

Hypnotist Anthony Cools (Paris, 702.777.2782) guides a merry-go-round of ribald antics after he puts subjects through paces that begin innocently and quickly grow more suggestive. The show, ahem, climaxes with Cools’ signature porn auditions, as each volunteer displays their skill. “Certain things will always affect the show—moon cycles, the time of year, even bills being due at tax time...” Cools said. “You don’t know what’s going to happen until it happens.” –Las Vegas Magazine Staff
Fabulous Fun With lake and fountains as backdrop, The Mayfair Supper Club (themayfairlv. com) at Bellagio ushers in a new era of nightlife experiences beginning Dec. 31. Part supper club, part jazz club, part nightclub, Mayfair will explore the culture and delights of the Roaring ’20s. The evening begins tame, with cocktails, light bites and a jazz pianist; and, as the night progresses the entire venue lights up for an unforgettable 360-degree experience. –Kiko Miyasato

In defining success in the world of classic rock, one (mostly) subjective benchmark revolves around the answer to this question: “Can you write the definitive history of classic rock without this band?” In the case of Night Ranger, the answer is “No!” Formed in 1979 in San Francisco, Night Ranger’s popularity soared with the 1984 release of “Sister Christian.” Not only did it become an MTV favorite and a Top 5 single (peaking at No. 2 on the U.S. charts), but “Sister Christian” ushered in a sustained era in which every rock band from Aerosmith to ZZ Top dared not release an album that didn’t include an anthemic power ballad. In retrospect, the formula was simple: Sprinkle in a radio- and MTV-friendly power ballad among a sea of heavier songs. For that song alone, they’ve rightfully earned their place in history. –Matt Jacob

Meaty Matters Vic & Anthony’s Steakhouse is the only downtown steakhouse—and one of just a few in Las Vegas—to carry true Kobe beef. There’s even a bronze statue on display to confirm the certification. Authentic Kobe beef comes from Tajima cattle raised on a diet of grass and grain in Japan’s Hyogo prefecture. The marbling produces a bright, distinct flavor that executive chef Gary Fowler describes as “beef and butter in your mouth at the same time.” It’s perfect for the steak lover who values taste over size. Vic & Anthony’s presents a 5-ounce serving of gently seared A5 Kobe with just a sprinkle of coarse salt. Served in slices, the cool temperature allows the flavor of the meat to settle easily in the mouth and be savored slowly. But if you’re looking for more of a classic cut, Vic & Anthony’s also serves a 14-ounce filet mignon, a 22-ounce ribeye and, if you truly want to go big, a 40-ounce bone-in tomahawk. Round out any steak dinner with a lobster tail. And if you want to pair your meal with a drink, the wine list is exceptional, but the cocktail menu has a certain swagger that matches the dim lights, vintage decor and old-school attitude of the dining room. The Final Word is a twist on a Prohibition-era cocktail known as the Last Word, with rye in place of gin, yellow Chartreuse, Luxardo and lemon zest. Much like Vic & Anthony’s itself, it’s strong in character and leaves you wanting more. –Robert Kachelreiss Golden Nugget, open from 5-11 p.m. daily. 702.386.8399

Off-Strip Oasis
Hot spot introduces new beer garden, food, brews, cocktails Looking for a cool place to kick it? For more than 50 years Ellis Island Hotel, Casino & Brewery has offered just that—a laid-back atmosphere where both locals and visitors converge for some brews, grub and gambling. Oh, and one of the most-popular hidden gems in the city—the Karaoke Lounge, a longtime favorite karaoke spot for Strip entertainers and workers, locals and tourists alike. “The energy that is in that room every night is such a big part of it,” says Christina Ellis, director of marketing for Ellis Island. “Everyone tries to be encouraging as much as possible, whether you can sing or not. It’s just a fun time.” Ellis Island offers guests another awesome reason to stop—the newly built Front Yard. “The original idea was just a patio and it slowly

snowballed into this beautiful structure that is the beer garden,” says Ellis. The two-story venue, lush with foliage and charming furnishings like picnic tables and twinkling lights, will undoubtedly become a hot spot for sports viewing with its monstrous 18-foot-by-10-foot TV in the center of the action and more than 20 flat screens set up throughout the space. There’s two bars, one on the main floor and one upstairs in the atrium where guests can kick back and enjoy views of the Strip. There’s also a brand-new kitchen serving a brand-new menu—with some dishes pulled from the Ellis family’s very own recipes. Sauces are made in-house, as well as bacon and brisket smoked in-house. Seven new beers sourced
directly from the property’s own brewery were added to the menu such as the Coffee Stout, Belgian IPA and Belgian Triple. If cocktails are more your style, the new menu offers a dozen specialty sips with some mighty creative recipes, with a lot of the ingredients made in-house, too, like the syrups and infused alcohol. Check out the Flamin’ Hot Bloody with Flaming Hot Cheeto-infused Tito’s vodka and house-made spicy mix or The 1968 (the year Ellis Island opened) with Makers Mark and maple-brown sugar simple syrup. Don’t forget to try the Ellis family’s secret-recipe Holiday Nog, made during the holidays and served till it’s sold out (which should last until around New Year’s Eve). –Kiko Miyasato 4178 Koval Lane, 702.733.8901

NOSH CHEERS
LAS VEGAS has a serious steakhouse bracket. And for every flashy powerhouse, there is a nimble workhorse quietly proving that talent isn’t confined to the Strip. Hawthorn Grill, I see you. The restaurant debuted inside Summerlin’s JW Marriott three years ago, mashing up classic and contemporary ideas of America’s favorite fancy dinner. But serving a busy resort is about versatility, so Hawthorn Grill also does breakfast and lunch, Sunday brunch, weddings … It is physically and conceptually designed to satisfy every type of guest, all day, every day. A museum of wine in a wide hallway leads into the bright bar and stylishly cozy lounge. The dining room uses half-walls and window frames to create distinctive nooks without losing the airiness, and warm light from spectacular chandeliers plays against the palette of cool grays, blacks and silvers. For general manager Greg Monjure, the best seat in the house is a stately booth with fountain views. He calls it a sanctuary, and its sigh-inducing comforts demand a very good cocktail. Despite the purist’s Manhattan and trendy White Russian kissed with pumpkin spice, the season is best tasted in the Hawthorn Cider. Four Roses bourbon is the bass note in a crisp swirl of lemon, sparkling cider and ginger (both fresh and in Domaine de Canton liqueur). It has inviting softness without losing the whiskey’s kick. The appetizer menu is full of steakhouse standards like oysters, shrimp cocktail and a Baltimore crab cake. The latter is artfully plated with rich remoulade and bitter frisée, excellent foils for golden-seared, sweet shellfish. The dish packs flavor without being heavy, leaving room for pillowy loaves of artisan bread. Of course, the salad menu has a wedge and a Caesar. But branch out with a sublimely simple burrata caprese, or the textural romp of kumquats, endive, smoked almonds, buttermilk blue cheese, chives and apple-cider vinaigrette. Like any good steakhouse, Hawthorn Grill accents the beef with dialed-in sides. This is one area where tradition reigns, because the double-baked potato is a crispy wonder. Watch it being dressed with butter, sour cream and chives tableside as you cut into filet mignon finished with more butter. This silky bite is “garnished” with mashed potatoes, young carrots and green beans, their perfection showing how much details matter. With a glass of Ridge’s

Three Valleys red blend, it’s a feast of familiar decadence. The oven roasted salmon is an absolute delight, served on a bed of farro, cipollini onions, carrots and haricot verts, and accompanied by a flavorful soubise onion sauce. Pastry chef Olivier Carlos (who oversees dessert propertywide) fully embraces whimsy. Inspired by his family’s flower shop in Paris, a trio of deconstructed pies is served in sweet

little terracotta pots. The apple sings with allspice, caramel and almond streusel, while sweet potato melts into cinnamon cream. But banana wins. Carlos bakes the fruit peel-on to boost flavor in a mousse layered with puff pastry, whipped cream, Belgian chocolate and a flourish of gold flake. Many of his creations are playful—cheesecake infused with Cap’n Crunch, or an orb of solid chocolate hiding a brownie-mousse-graham-marshmallow stack oozing with a fromscratch version of Nutella. With a chuckle, he says he wanted to wrap the orb in magician’s paper that could be lit on fire, but he settled for molten chocolate sauce. At Hawthorn Grill, nothing tastes like settling. The whole place is a sanctuary.

Gregory Rodriguez
Bar manager plies his passion for cocktails After Gregory Rodriguez got injured during his college football career, he was left to ponder what he wanted to do with the rest of his life. Looking for work, his cousin got him a job as a barback working in an Irish pub in Miami. Rodriguez quickly learned the amount of hard work that goes along with the industry, but he also realized that he wanted to stay in the industry and he eventually worked his way up to bartender. “I came to realize bartending is the one thing that I really enjoy and I was pretty good at,” he says. Today, Rodriguez is the bar manager at Oak & Ivy at Container Park. He moved to Las Vegas in 2014 for a change of scenery. Working at bars along the Las Vegas Strip for a couple years, in 2016 he jumped at the opportunity to work at Oak & Ivy.
32 12.22.19 LasVegasMagazine.com
“This was the exact opportunity that I needed and wanted,” he says. “I could really express myself creatively here. … It’s the most unique bar I’ve ever worked in—it’s a tiny bar with like eight seats with over 250 different spirits inside a shipping container.” After all his years of bartending, Rodriguez confidently labels himself as a “cocktail nerd.” He’s always done a ton of research on the subject, consuming as much knowledge as possible. You can feel the passion behind his words and see the passion behind his pours. Rodriguez is a bona fide lover of all things cocktails and bartending. “I’m doing it because I’m really incredibly passionate. It’s not about the money, the glamour. For me, the perfect world is—I’m clocking in every day and I do the perfect shift at Oak & Ivy.” –Kiko Miyasato
While Oak & Ivy is technically labeled an American whiskey bar, Rodriguez likes to say it’s a full-on cocktail bar. Passion and imagination lies behind each handcrafted cocktail. One such example is the Rodriguez-created The Savory Coast. “The Savory Coast is a martini variation,” he says. “I found inspiration from James Bond. What if James Bond was in a boat going down the coast and he sees his rendezvous waiting for him with a martini in hand. What would that martini be?” It’s a blend of Grey Goose vodka, Fino sherry, local honey and a few spritzes of a house-made bay leaf tincture. Stirred, not shaken. –KM

The Art of Food
A legacy of world-class Japanese cuisine Chef Akira Back made his name in Las Vegas, first at Japanese restaurant Yellowtail (Bellagio, 702.693.8865) and then through other resort projects before creating his own restaurant brands for hotels in major cities around the world. He achieved a culinary artist’s dream when he earned his first Michelin star for Dosa in his hometown of Seoul, South Korea. But he maintains his connections to Las Vegas and to Yellowtail, where you can access his traditional and contemporary take on Japanese cuisine.
Consider the omakase tasting menu, which blends Yellowtail’s most popular dishes with some of Back’s unique creations, from the bigeye tuna pizza with truffle oil to the daring but simple jeju domi, Korean red snapper with spicy, funky chojang and orange masago. Don’t skip a sampling of Yellowtail’s new-style sashimi, your favorite raw fish served with hot oil, yuzu soy, garlic and Thai basil. This is one Vegas restaurant where the chef’s vision comes to life on the plate every night. –Brock Radke
It was only a matter of time before Las Vegas’ favorite Texas-style barbecue joint expanded. The new southwest location of Big B’s (6115 S. Fort Apache Road #110, 702.844.8206) gives the valley a proper brisket blanket, with its most popular dish now available on both ends of town. The smoky, rich flavors imparted in the beef keep the regulars coming back for more here and at the original Henderson location, with tri-tip (a rare cut for a traditional barbecue eatery), ribs and pulled pork also among the top sellers. Grab a side of macaroni and cheese to make your meal complete. –BR
#trending It had already become one of the most popular taco shops in downtown Las Vegas in a short period of time. Then Santos Guisados (616 E. Carson Ave., 702.826.3515) doubled down by adding a mezcal bar and cocktail menu, taking the flavors to the next level at this colorful hangout a block off Fremont East. Sample the Downtown Paloma, made with dried chili, grapefruit and hibiscus salt, with some slowcooked birria santa beef tacos topped with fresh salsa verde. –BR

Liquid Gold It’s been more than 20 years since Cirque du Soleil premiered “O” (Bellagio, 702.693.8866), but the water-based show continues to dazzle, even as Cirque productions have spread across the Las Vegas Strip. Before opening “O,” Cirque was known for its slightly more traditional circus-arts shows, like its first Vegas production, Mystère (which is also still going, after more than 25 years). For “O,” Cirque had the chance to build a custom
theater and design the show and the space at the same time, which allowed the company to create a production whose form and function are intricately intertwined. The set for “O” includes a 1.5 million-gallon pool, with constantly shifting platforms that can provide performers with a solid surface or plunge them deep into the water, depending on the needs of each scene. It makes for a mesmerizing world, both in the graceful way
the performers navigate the waters and in the dreamlike nature of the characters and the abstract, impressionistic story. The ever-changing stage set-up can position performers in various places, providing a panorama of complex acrobatics happening everywhere the audience looks. With new set pieces rotating in on a regular basis, “O” remains as fresh and delightful as when it first opened. –Josh Bell
