NOTES

From the Editor Looking Ahead

If you’re like me, you cannot wait for 2020 to be over. It probably doesn’t need to be said, but I’m going to say it anyway: Worst.

Year. Ever. And as 2021 looms on the horizon, I’m looking forward to the positive things that next year will bring. Some of those include the opening of Resorts World Las Vegas, a 3,500-room megaresort that promises to be a stunner inside and out; Donny Osmond’s triumphant return to Las Vegas in his own residency at Harrah’s in August; and the opening of Virgin Hotels Las Vegas in place of the former Hard Rock Hotel on Harmon and Paradise. When planning your trip to Vegas next year, definitely put all three of these on your schedule.

And there’s another reason to look forward to 2021: You’ll get to discover downtown’s newest jewel, Circa Resort & Casino, the brainchild of Derek Stevens, who’s already put quite a stamp on the area with his hotel The D. Trust us: Circa is going to change the face of downtown.

We are so impressed by this property that we’ve dedicated most of this week’s issue to it; Las Vegas Magazine’s Kiko Miyasato will take you on a tour of this sensational destination (“A Legend is Born,” p. 18). We have no doubt that once you’ve seen what this property has to offer, you’ll make it your next must-visit while in town. And

if you’re here this week, what are you waiting for?

This week’s issue of Las Vegas Magazine covers a two-week period, so we’ve made sure to include information that you can find useful over the next few weeks. So get ready to plan a great vacation, including: Dining: In the mood for great Italian?

Head to Fresco Italiano at Westgate Las Vegas (“A Taste of the Traditional,” p. 7).

How about French bistro food? Thomas Keller’s Bouchon at The Venetian will satisfy (“French Connection,” p. 10). And if you’re a huge fan of the Hell’s Kitchen host, Gordon Ramsay Steak at Paris is a must (“It’s All Good,” p. 12).

Attractions: If you’re an adrenaline junkie, it doesn’t get better than Skydive Las Vegas (“Soaring Resolution,” p. 15).

Whether you love golf or not, Topgolf Las Vegas has something for everyone (“The Club Scene,” p. 12). And Circus Circus just added a new pulse-pounding attraction, NebulaZ (“Get Dizzy With It,” p. 8).

Drinks: Kick up your heels and head to Gilley’s at Treasure Island on Saturdays for some great drink specials (“Saturday Night’s All Right,” p. 17). And enjoy glamour at Lily Bar & Lounge at Bellagio (“A Cocktail Destination,” p. 12).

And here’s our New Year’s resolution: Make 2021 the best year ever.

A Taste of the Traditional Hungry for some Italian cooking? How about adding locally sourced, freshly made and traditional family recipes to the mix?

Award-winning executive chef Steve Young masters the art of Italian cuisine at Fresco Italiano and plates deliciousness in the form of pastas and star entrées like osso buco.

Inside the warm and welcoming restaurant, start with the slow-braised pork, beef and veal meatballs and the crisp calamari.

Warming your tummy during the cold winter months is the Tuscan white bean and kale soup. Fresh-made sauces top pasta in dishes like spaghetti pomodoro, penne vodka and

a filling lasagna with a Bolognese ragu.

Additional entrées include a sautéed veal loin, lemon and rosemary half chicken, filet mignon and a traditional chicken Parmesan. Pizzas are cooked in the stone-fired oven. Finish it all with a slice of just-like-nonna-used-to-make tiramisu. –Kiko Miyasato

Bold Clucking The Crack Shack at Park MGM makes some bold claims, both with its irreverent name and with its messaging: “We are not your average restaurant—and this is not your average chicken.” Fans of the breaded bird, however, don’t feel that the claims are unjustifiably bold, just honest.

The restaurant’s “Southern Californian” fried chicken is made from free-range jidori chickens, which generally results in juicier meat. Get that chicken in large platters with five or 10 pieces (half or whole bird) and a choice of sauces for dipping—choose from sweet heat, spicy, toro and honey butter. You can also get those in large meals, which add in chicken nuggets and sides like mini biscuits and slaw.

Sandwiches layer a variety of chicken forms, from the BAE, with bacon avocado and egg on a brioche bun, to the Señor Croque, with fried chicken, fried egg, bacon and cheddar on brioche. But you can also get a ground chicken burger, piled high with two patties, pickles, fried onions and avocado, or a grilled chicken sandwich that sports caper mayo and Caesar dressing. And there’s a varied range of bowls if a sandwich doesn’t appeal. We think you’ll agree— bold is beautiful. –Nina King

Get Dizzy With It

Lounge Perfectly Live like a whiskey-drinking, cigar-smoking baller when you hit up Montecristo Cigar Bar. This upscale space offers a state-ofthe-art ventilation system, meaning the lounge never gets too smoky. Whether you hang in The Library with flat-screen TVs, take a seat at the Signature Bar to chat with the bartenders, or lounge out inside the pretend-to-be-outside Courtyard, each space is ideal for enjoying one of the 1,000 stored cigars and specially crafted cocktails—or even a whiskey flight.

.8. 12.27.20 LAS VEGAS MAGAZINE

The spirits menu is packed with American and Tennessee whiskey and ryes, Irish whiskey and Japanese and Canadian whiskey. Montecristo also offers exclusive Caesars Palace limited-edition, hand-selected bourbon and whiskey barrels, as well as tequila and mezcal barrels.

For those looking to splurge, book the Vault Room and order the Louis XIII Perfect Pour, served in crystal Riedel glassware.

Now, that’s baller. –Kiko Miyasato Caesars Palace, 866.733.5827

Head to Adventuredome to test your mettle on the newest ride—NebulaZ. Here, four arms with gondolas at each end turn end over end while also rotating along a center axis, creating a dizzying journey as the gondolas pass each other going up, down and around. It’s not for the youngest kids, but NebulaZ welcomes riders of many ages, as long as they are at least 42 inches tall. With the theme park’s other rides like Canyon Blaster coaster and El Loco and the massive swinging Sand Pirates ride, it can truly be a grand family adventure. –NK Circus Circus, 702.794.3939

The Venetian, 702.414.6200

French Connection

Venetian restaurant replicates the bistro experience If you’re a true connoisseur of fine food, the name “Thomas Keller” no doubt will give you goosebumps. After all, Keller is associated with some of the most famous restaurants in the world, including The French Laundry or Bouchon Bistro in Yountville, Calif., which between them have won every award known to man. And yes, getting a table at either is no easy feat. But just because you’re in Las Vegas doesn’t mean you have to miss out on Keller’s genius. You’ll get the full French experience he offers at Bouchon in The Venetian.

Bouchon aims to replicate French bistro classics, all with Keller’s inimitable spin. Start your

.10. 12.27.20 LAS VEGAS MAGAZINE

meal by choosing from an enormous collection of starters, all equally flavorful and mouthwatering.

We particularly recommend escargots de Bourgogne, featuring Burgundy snails in parsley-garlic butter and accompanied by a Bouchon Bakery puff pastry. (While you’re at the host property, make sure to pay a visit to Bouchon Bakery, where you can enjoy macarons and many other Parisian delights.)

Main courses here are equally tempting, especially the truffle croque madame, a grilled ham and cheese sandwich on brioche smothered with truffle Mornay sauce and topped with a fried egg and served with truffle fries; moules au safran,

Maine bouchot mussels steamed with white wine, Dijon mustard and saffron and served with fries; and poulet roti, roasted chicken with carmelized Brussels sprouts, bacon lardons and Dijon chicken jus.

As you would expect at a French restaurant, desserts here are delightful and the perfect end to your experience. Take your choice of a crème brûlée with vanilla bean custard, tarte au citron with lemon sabayon and pine nut crust, profiteroles with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce, and chocolate Bouchons, warm chocolate brownies served with vanilla ice cream, cocoa nibs and chocolate sauce. –Ken Miller

It’s All Good If you watch any of Gordon Ramsay’s TV programs, you know you can expect at least three signature Ramsay items on the menu at Gordon Ramsay Steak: risotto, beef Wellington and sticky toffee pudding.

But those aren’t the only excellent dishes you’ll find at Ramsay’s flagship Vegas restaurant. Also on the menu is the delectable hamachi crudo, which is served with pickled mushrooms, puffed rice, miso vinaigrette and lime aoili.

But if you prefer something meatier, several choice cuts make the menu, such as the 8-ounce American wagyu skirt steak, the 18-ounce bone-in New York strip and the mammoth 32-ounce royal long-bone chop; yet, you might want to order the latter if you’re with a date. Pair meals with wonderful sides like the mac and cheese, which is made with Gruyère, white cheddar, Parmesan, Emmental and Gouda cheeses, or the creamy potato purée.

For dessert, the sticky toffee pudding is irresistible, but if you want to stray from greatest hits and dig into a deep cut, the caramel apple cheesecake is a delightful change of pace, each bite filled with apple compote, gold flake caramel and toasted streusel. –Alex Haase

A Cocktail Destination

The Club Scene If you are looking for an attraction where you really get to swing, look no farther than Topgolf Las Vegas. This combination of a golf range and video game gives you the best of both of those.

Topgolf Las Vegas features four levels facing an enormous, netted playing field studded with holes. And like regular golf, you are trying to get your balls in the holes— only these balls are microchipped, so all of your shots are tracked. You can play several types of games, including one that lets your

.12. 12.27.20 LAS VEGAS MAGAZINE

ball act as one of those virtual feathered friends in Angry Birds. Some games are targeted at beginner players, and some at better players, so don’t let your inexperience hold you back from fun.

And if you need food or drink while playing, Topgolf has a fun menu with things like edamame, kalbi short ribs, fried chicken sandwich, loaded nachos, burgers, flatbreads, salads and injectable donut holes, where you add the filling. –Nina King MGM Grand, 702.933.8458

You want a delicious, innovative cocktail. You want sleek, sexy, upscale surroundings. You want the night soundtracked by live DJ sounds.

It’s all at the intimate Lily Bar & Lounge. The handcrafted cocktails whipped up by master mixologists are really all the rage here. Try Blackberry Dreams with The Botanist gin, crème de mûre, violet liqueur, pineapple, lime and muddled blackberries, or the Lucky For You with BarSol pisco, spiced pear liqueur, prickly pear, cane sugar, egg white and lime. The specialty cocktail list really goes on and on and is quite impressive. –Kiko Miyasato Bellagio, 702.692.5615

Is It My Body?

Eye-opening exhibit answers many questions There’s an old adage that perfectly sums up 2020: When you speak about the future, the Devil laughs. This past year was a reminder that tomorrow is not guaranteed; life can change in an instant.

Yet, you didn’t come to Vegas to reflect on the nature of change and the fragility of life. You came here to distract yourself from such realities through fun and frolic. But REAL BODIES at Bally’s does a little bit of both: You can enjoy a fun, stimulating exhibit that explores the inner workings of the human body, while also taking the time to reflect on the precious nature of life.

Perhaps you’ll walk away with a new outlook; perhaps you’ll never look at yourself the same way again.

.14. 12.27.20 LAS VEGAS MAGAZINE

Upon entering, there’s an eerie yet comfortable darkness, a seeming absence of time and space, similar to the womb. Then, a cool draft may send a tingle down your spine. But don’t fear, you’ll be soothed by life quotes from notable figures, such as Yoko Ono, who will remind you to “breathe.” Pretty soon, breathing is all you’ll be able to think about, and suddenly you’ll remember life is bookended by a breath. It’s deep. It’s heavy. But don’t hyperventilate. Remember, it’s all educational. By the way, did you know that the volume of air that your lungs inhale daily can fill two hot air balloons? That’s just one of the few fun factoids you’ll find plastered on the walls of the exhibit, a diversion from the stuff you really came to see.

As advertised, you’re going to find displays that feature real human bodies, which are preserved through a process called plastination. Besides breath, you’ll explore the digestive system, the rhythm and beat of the circulatory system, the complex muscular system, the brain, primal instincts and a poignant—and respectful—display on the stages of embryonic life. As a bonus, a new exhibit exploring COVID-19 and its effects on the body is on display.

The final display ponders the question that stumps everyone—what happens when we die?

You likely won’t find the answer here, but you’ll be guided to the exit by a light at the end of the tunnel, which ultimately serves as the perfect metaphor for the new year. –Alex Haase

Beer Me Boy, could we all use a beer about now! At Pub 365 at Tuscany, get that beer with traditional pub fare (plus plenty that strays outside those boundaries). Beers and cider here change out on a regular basis, but as per the name, there are 365 that rotate in and out. Some of our favorites: Lovelady Love Juice, Santa Monica Beer Works’ Pale Chocolate Heaven, Modern Times Beer Proxima—the draft diversity is crazy good, and you can get even more options with the fabulous can and bottle selection.

Right now there are several seasonal items like Bell’s Brewery’s Christmas Ale. Pair those with chili, a salad with shrimp, small bites like poutine with a sunny-side-up egg, nachos with an IPA cheese blend, cauliflower wings or taquitos. You can also order five types of tacos, a signature burger like the tequila shrimp burger, piled with a ton of flavor, or a traditional fish and chips. Desserts include such items as deep-fried Oreos and bread pudding.

One of nicest options at Pub 365 in this COVID era is that you can scan a QR code to get the latest offerings on tap, and a list of the unicorn beers. Yes! –Nina King Tuscany Hotel & Casino, 702.893.8933

Since you didn’t do much in 2020, your 2021 New Year’s resolutions should be easy—just copy last year’s resolutions and paste them into this year, but with one addition: Take the leap at Skydive Las Vegas. And have no fear. After 2020, jumping out of an airplane should feel like a breeze. Here, you’re securely attached to a skilled jumper who controls your parachute and descent. That way, as you zoom through the sky at 120 mph, you can enjoy views of Lake Mead and the Strip without a worry. –Alex Haase Reservations required, 702.759.3483

Erica Kiewice

Helping to give the dolphins a safe, happy home On the Las Vegas Strip, Erica Kiewice has quite possibly the most awesome job. She’s the curator of dolphin care at Siegfried & Roy’s Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat at The Mirage. Yup, that’s right, in the middle of a desert, Kiewice is in charge of caring for the 10 dolphins who call the habitat home.

For 24 years, Kiewice has built relationships with each and every dolphin, watching four generations flourish. “They’re my family now, they’re my pod,” she says. “Twenty-four years went by fast. The dolphins really are my family. You worry about them. You look forward to coming in and seeing them every day. It’s always changing. You learn new things—new projects, new research. You’re always expanding your mind. There’s always that goal to make sure the dolphins have the best home and a safe home.”

Before her tenure at the habitat, Kiewice, born in Pennsylvania and raised in Dallas,

attended the University of North Texas. After graduation, she got a job as a zookeeper at the Austin Zoo. In 1996, she moved to Las Vegas and heard that the habitat was expanding by building the Secret Garden portion for the big cats. She got the job as a tour guide, but a year later she found out a position in dolphin care opened up.

Over the years, Kiewice moved up the ladder in dolphin-care specialists. Subsequent promotions included a lead in dolphin care, supervisor and, four years ago, curator.

“I oversee the care of the dolphins, simply put,” she says. “I’m very grateful that I’ve managed to work through and work up and get to where I am. But it was a process. It didn’t happen overnight—it was a lot of hard work and dedication. There were a lot of goals that I set for myself. Even as a curator, I’m still looking to build my skills and to keep growing in my career.” –Kiko Miyasato

Saturday Night’s All Right

Indulge your yearning for live music and barbecue We know you’re missing live music, and at Gilley’s Saloon, Dance Hall & Bar-B-Que, you can recapture that feeling with their Bluegrass & BBQ nights. On Saturdays from 5-8 p.m., local bluegrass band Out of the Desert will provide ambient music while you dine and have drinks.

The lip-smacking barbecue at Gilley’s may always have been the biggest draw, but live music has always been close behind, with some of the hottest artists dropping in and local bands finding a chance to shine bright on the Strip.

Las Vegas band Out of the Desert has been playing together for 10 years now, and throughout the challenging past year have kept together,

playing live when they can and streaming some performances online.

What’s live music without drinks? Enjoy a number of different specials on Saturday night, like five for $30 beer buckets with classic domestic beer choices and four for $30 buckets with imports and new-fangled options like hard seltzer and tea, plus selected drafts for $8 each.

If you are more of a mule fan, get yours with either Deep Eddy vodka or Knob Creek single barrel reserve bourbon. The You-Call-It cocktail features Sauza Blue tequila, Jim Beam Kentucky bourbon, Deep Eddy vodka and Cruzan light aged rum. So yeah, you call it.

On any night, the best barbecue option here is the baby back ribs (of course). They come in half- or full racks, hand-rubbed in Gilley’s spices, slow-smoked and covered in barbecue sauce after cooking. But there are lots of other goodies to order, like Southern-fried chicken and rotisserie chicken; Gilley’s Lone Star burger, with all the classic toppings; beef chili with a little kick plus green onions and cheddar cheese; grits with white cheddar and green chili, buffalo wings in tossed in Frank’s RedHot Sauce; and even a Beyond Meat burger for vegetarians.

Whether you’re rolling in for dinner or checking out the band, you’ll leave satisfied. –Nina King

The first property built from the ground up in four decades, the all-new Circa Resort & Casino makes its mark in downtown Las Vegas

What a year 2020 has been.

Dark clouds seemed to settle over every city, in every state, heck, in every country. But in downtown Las Vegas there shined a silver lining. Circa Resort & Casino opened its doors in October, the first new downtown hotel built from the ground up since 1980,

.18

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. Guests can now make a hotel reservation beginning Dec. 28. With the opening of Circa, it looks like things are definitely looking up.

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? 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 ground up. This is my

true heart and soul going into this. It’s self-gratifying for myself, it really is.

(Barry) is the only person that I would’ve done this with. We’re getting older—we need one more run, and this is it. Let’s ride it into the sunset.

Dakake: It’s gratifying as an ownership role, not that I didn’t care

before, but now you care times 10. You’re involved as an owner; you have to be on your A-game. You have to be Babe Ruth.

The word “honor” is important when you want to be successful. I think the word “kindness” needs to be in there, too. You have to be kind to your guests, but be kind to the employees that work for you,

your co-workers. You have to be a family.

And me and Patrick—we’re family.

WHAT DO YOU ADMIRE MOST ABOUT THE OTHER? Chef and owner Barry S. Dakake: We come from the same style of family core background. He’s a good person;

he’s a great person. He loves his family.

He loves his job. We’ve been working together 20-something years—brotherly love. We fight, we argue, we laugh, we fight, we argue, we laugh—and we don’t hold grudges, ever.

Chef de cuisine Patrick Hodge: We were brought up the same way, you

know, family dinner on 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.

“We always wanted to have some connection to the past,” Stevens says. “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 Ve-

gas 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.”

Take a look inside Steve Wynn’s Summerlin home for sale He’s one of the most influential figures in the history of Las Vegas, and now Steve Wynn’s Summerlin home is for sale. It’s certainly not cheap, but it’s definitely a showcase we couldn’t wait to display in the pages of Las Vegas Magazine.

Wynn’s home was recently renovated by Forté Specialty Contractors, a Las Vegas-based design build construction company that has worked across the globe and here in Las Vegas.

“Luxury homeowners want experience and excellent craftsmanship,” said Scott Acton, CEO and founder of Forté Specialty Contractors.

.30. 12.27.20 LAS VEGAS MAGAZINE

“Given our roots are based in creating experiences—everything from building the kitchen at Hell’s Kitchen to designing parts of the spa at the Wynn and more—meeting the needs of the luxury housing market is a natural evolution for us. We are known for tackling the hard-to-do projects and building them faster with a higher level of quality and precision. This is all part of the craftsmanship that luxury homeowners expect. Our clients love it.”

Their work has turned an already amazing home into something truly special. The 20,000-square-foot, European-style villa has

six bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. Forté’s work on the home includes more than 700 square feet of space, a state-of-the-art media room, wine closet and den that can double as a children’s playroom.

The home’s charms are apparent from the minute you walk in the door, thanks to a dramatic front entryway stairs and back staircase, both leading to a second-level owner’s suite and three guest bedrooms. Each bedroom contains a full or Juliet balcony (with views of the picturesque TPC golf course). His and hers chambers are featured in the owner’s suite, with

both dressing rooms containing full closets with Hermès-inspired drawer pulls. The men’s side has a custom shower with exposed stainless steel plumbing—it makes you feel like you’re on a luxury yacht. The women’s side includes a salon-style bathroom complete with a hair-washing station. Each guest bedroom has a three-quarter bath and motion sensor walk-in closets. Talk about feeling pampered.

Wait until you see the kitchen! In addition to two Wolf stovetops, two microwaves and two

full-size refrigerators, there’s a second kitchen (also called a butler’s pantry) through a secret door that leads straight into the dining room, framed by French doors and providing amazing views of the Summerlin landscape.

But don’t spend too much time indoors here—the exterior is as stunning as the interior, with a European-style outdoor sanctuary featuring a fountain, gazebo, pool, spa and English garden with artificial grass. Don’t worry about the summer heat, as travertine stone has

been added, along with slip-resistant grit stone, around the pool.

“Steve Wynn’s vision for his homes is much like his vision for his casinos. Our innovative project team created the atmosphere in the Wynn residences, bringing the extravagant sensation of Las Vegas into the home with the highest quality of construction and in a record amount of time,” Acton said. –Ken Miller 1717 Enclave Court, $25,000,000.

Protecting yourself, fellow tourists and the staff

By Nina King Illustrations By Brooke Everson

Here in Las Vegas a myriad of changes have oc-

can expect to see similar protocols throughout

curred, all intended to keep visitors and employees

Las Vegas. All casinos opening in Las Vegas were

healthy. Guidelines issued by the Nevada Gaming

required to submit their plan for reopening to the

Commission have been implemented, with every-

commission. Here’s what you can expect to see, and

thing from casinos to guest rooms covered, so you

what’s been done to make your experience safer.

You may notice some guests (including yourself) headed straight to the elevators. That’s because contactless check-in is no longer a thing of the future. At MGM Resorts International properties, check in on your phone when you get close to the resort, and you’ll be able to pay and get a digital key. You can also check in with a contactless option on a kiosk and a more traditional front-desk option. Caesars Entertainment has rearranged front-desk areas and lines to accommodate social distancing, and provides hand sanitizer. Some hotels also have plexiglass installed at the front desk.

Hand sanitizer, everywhere! Every hotel that reopens is required to have stations for hand sanitizing throughout. MGM Resorts’ properties even offer new handwashing stations.

You’ll notice that employees are masked and, if their job requires it, gloved. This goes for those employees you see and those who labor behind the scenes, in restaurants, loading docks and other areas. Those employees undergo a health self-screening daily and most are also screened for temperature.

There may be a line, as guests are being asked to maintain adequate spacing between groups and to try to ride with their own party, or ride with fewer people. Employees often clean and sanitize the buttons and commonly touched areas inside the cars, and clean escalator rails.

Feel good in knowing your room has been thoroughly sanitized. Surfaces have been wiped down; and linens and towels completely changed out. You’ll probably find extra towels in your room, and can always request more if needed. You may not find little bottles of amenities but amenities are still available. Housekeeping and other guest services may not be entering your room unless requested, and at some hotels, won’t be entering during your stay.

Many venues have plexiglass at payment stations, and marks to encourage social distancing while waiting. In addition, fewer patrons may be allowed in at one time.

OK! It’s time to release a little tension, and maybe win a few bucks. Go grab some cash, and head to the floor. While you’re here, you’ll see a variety of measures being taken to increase social distancing, such as slot machines not being available right next to each other, congregating behind each other not allowed, a limited number of players at the tables and plexiglass partitions between dealers and players. You may be asked to step away from the game if you remove your mask to smoke. Casinos are required to have a plan to disinfect all the items needed to play, such as chips, cards, balls and dice.

Although venues may differ, most will implement 25-foot spacing between performers and audience members and space between each party to encourage social distancing.

Masks are mandatory. There is a limit to the number of people allowed in the venue, per current Nevada rules.

Most restaurants require reservations, although not all.

Many will text or call when your table is ready, saving you the hassle of waiting in line. You’re required to wear your face mask until you reach your table. It may feel much more intimate, as tables have 6 feet between them and the number of customers is fewer. Menus may be digital or one-time use paper menus. At some restaurants, permanent menus are sanitized between each use. Condiments won’t simply be stored on the table, and are sanitized between customers.

Bars will also be spacing patrons’ parties 6 feet apart.

.36. 12.27.20 6.14.20 LAS LASVEGAS VEGASMAGAZINE MAGAZINE

Although the number of attractions in Vegas isn’t as high as a few months ago, sanitation is still high on those that are open, and social distancing is easily seen. For instance, on New York-New York’s Roller Coaster, cars are loaded with the same party, and alternate cars will be empty.

One of the best ways is to check-out on the TV in your room, and hotels have been using this option for many years now. Look at your bill, OK it if all is correct, and get a copy emailed to you. If you have a physical key, most hotels will allow you to leave it in the room. Some hotels have check-out kiosks that are sanitized often.

While you’re here in Las Vegas, there are several things you can do to help keep yourself well and decrease the chances of you or someone else getting sick.

Give yourself a self-check before you arrive. Do you have a fever?

A cough? Is your sense of smell normal?

You must now wear your mask in public areas, including the casino. It helps stem the spread of potentially deadly viruses like

COVID-19. It’s also considerate of fellow guests and resort workers.

holding escalator rails or getting money from the ATM).

You’ll notice hand sanitizer stations. Give yourself a squirt before and after playing slots or the tables, and anywhere it seems you might need it (after touching elevator buttons,

If you start to feel sick, get it checked out.

Many hotels have medical professionals onsite or can get you medical help quickly.

6 feet from people other than your travel companions whenever possible. Common places that lines form will often be marked, making this easy. Be patient—even though you are 6 feet apart, you’ll still be moving.

Practice social distancing. Stay

Try not to touch your face.

Periodically, wash your hands for at least 20 seconds with soap and water, then rinse for 10 seconds.

You may receive personal size bottles of hand sanitizer in your room. Take those with you and use whenever it’s not practical to wash, or a hand sanitizer station isn’t close.

Speed Thrills When you first get into the state-of-the-art go-karts at Pole Position Raceway (4175 S. Arville St., 702.227.722), it’s a bit … disappointing. You have no control of the speed of your vehicle for the first few seconds, as all racers are led onto the track on automatic pilot.

But just as quickly as you’re wondering, “Is this as fast as it gets?” the autopilot is turned off, and … well, let’s just say you’re bound to be saying something to the effect of, “Holy poop!” (This is a family magazine, folks.) Suddenly you’re hitting speeds of up to 45 mph on the track’s straightaway, always wondering if you want to bother hitting the brakes at all. But of course, you always do, because you want to get the best time and leave everyone in the dust. Set aside some time to experience Pole Position’s latest addition, Omni Arena by Virtuix, a virtual reality experience. –Ken Miller
