A Las Vegas Lifestyle Guide

The Galavantier Blog

Greetings fellow Galavantier’s!  Spring is here, the weather is beautiful and if you are like us, you are getting ready to plan some exciting vacations, weekend getaways and more.  For those of you who make the drive from California or Arizona to Las Vegas, there is a good chance you have tuned into Highway Radio and perhaps caught Bart Torres’, The Las Vegas Connection radio program.

Easter is just about here and if you are going to be in Las Vegas, we at Galavantier.com want to make sure you are ready to take the family out for one memorable Easter Brunch.  Below are a handful of our top picks for brunching in Las Vegas on Easter.

Easter Brunch at Comme Ca at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas

Known throughout Las Vegas as the classic Cirque du Soleil show, Mystere has been running at Treasure Island for eighteen years, never ceasing to drop jaws. Visitors might better recognize the show as the one Paul Rudd and Seth Rogan ‘shroomed out to in “Knocked Up,” either way it has become synonymous with Las Vegas entertainment. The quality of Mystere is the standard to which all other Strip shows have been compared to since its inception in 1993.

Zine Noodles Dim Sum at The Palazzo Las Vegas is brought to us by acclaimed Chef Simon To, recipient of the prestigious blue ribbon by the Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts and the man behind the exclusive The Paiza Club at The Venetian.  Zine Noodles Dim Sum melds traditional dishes with the exotic and simple with the extravagant in a comfortable, contemporary ambiance.

Enjoy it while you can!  Come the middle of June, Las Vegas will say goodbye to the Playboy Club at Palms Casino Resort after a strong six year run.  But why should you visit the Playboy Club in Las Vegas before it’s too late? Here’s why.

Satin teddy’s, cotton tails, blackjack and Jameson can only mean one thing: you’ve entered the ubiquitous Playboy Club at the Palms Casino Resort.

The weekend has arrived and at Galavantier.com we are running down your best bets when it comes to entertainment on the Las Vegas Strip.  Spring break is winding down but lucky for you there are plenty of concerts and comedy acts to see if you are coming to Las Vegas.

Thursday, March 29

This weekend March Madness culminates with the Final Four in New Orleans and if you don’t find yourself down in the Big Easy but rather here in Sin City, we’ve got you covered on just where you best bets to catch all the college basketball action.  The two semi-final games are Saturday afternoon, March 31 with the finals on Monday, April 2.

There are times where all we need is a good meal so we can move forward with our day. Grand Lux Cafe at both The Venetian Las Vegas and The Palazzo Las Vegas offer just that and truth be told, I've never had a bad meal there. In fact, I've had the best steak and eggs anywhere in Las Vegas at Grand Lux Cafe at The Venetian.

There are few things that are free these days but over at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, they have created something that in Las Vegas could very well be along the lines of how people view the Bellagio Fountains, water shows at Wynn and even the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign in, Book & Stage.

This weekend The Mint 400 returns to Las Vegas.  If you are a race fan, you won’t want to miss the 92-mile off road Best in the Desert race.  Even cooler, Galavantier.com has a wrapped VORE (Vegas Off Road Experience) vehicle participating in The Mint 400!   It all gets going bright and early Saturday morning just west of Jean off the I-15 heading to California.
