12 Days of Christmas Vegas Style

On the twelfth day of Christmas,
my Strip gave to me
Twelve singing Elvis,
Eleven drunken tourists,
Ten cards a flippin’,
Nine showgirls dancing,
Eight miles of walking,
Seven out-again.
Six missing room keys,
Five new casinos,
Four ATM visits,
Three Triple 7′s,
Two hours of sleep,
And a all day buffet pass too!

Strip-walking in a gambling wonderland

Slot bells ring, are you listening,
On the strip, lights are glistening
A beautiful sight,
We’re happy tonight.
Walking in a gambling wonderland.

Gone away is our money,
We are here to stay to get lucky
Elvis sings us a song,
As we go along,
Walking in a gambling wonderland.

We’ll still frolic and play, the Vegas way,
Walking in a gambling wonderland.

Rao’s at Caesar’s Palace By George Wallace

Meatballs! Meatballs! Meatballs!

Rao’s has been around since 1896 and they’ve brought the tradition to Vegas along with the meatballs.  Dining at Rao’s is an experience you can’t miss. Its upbeat atmosphere and décor give the New York feel of its Harlem original.  The 10-table restaurant in New York said to be one of the hardest restaurants to get a reservation was brought to Vegas in 2006, where it was made much larger and easier to get a table.  There are a few new additions, but the jukebox and celebrity photos are identical to the original.

When dining at Rao’s you have got to try the meatballs. Rao’s is famous for them and now I know why.   I ordered them with my meal, and they were better then I had expected.  Just as good as if you were on the East Coast.  The two baseball sized meatballs were served in a pool tomato sauce that was just excellent.

For dinner I chose the Gamberoni in Umido. The dish was excellent. The shrimp were served in lemon, butter, and white wine over pasta.  It was served from a personal saucepan and served gourmet style on my dinner plate.  Delicious!

When dining at Italian restaurants for dessert, the tiramisu is always an excellent choice.  For those of you who don’t know what tiramisu is, its Italian for “pick me up” referring to the espresso and cocoa it is typically made with.  I’ve had tiramisu at plenty of restaurants, but at Rao’s they certainly know how to put together a tasty dessert.

The food isn’t the only reason you should dine at Rao’s. The service they offer is terrific and the staff is always friendly and helpful.  The restaurant has been in the family for more than 100 years and you can tell they take great care in their service as the owner of the operation, Frank Pellegrino, usually can be found greeting guests in their dining area.

When you step in to Rao’s at Caesar’s Palace, be sure to let them know who sent you, George Wallace “The New Mr. Vegas.”  After dinner, make your way across Las Vegas Boulevard to see me performing “The Best 10PM Show” on the Strip at The Flamingo Hotel & Casino.

Downtown Dive set to close

Western Hotel and Casino will close Jan. 16

Cheap, dirty, and a dive. If you like that kind of stuff you will love this place because after a few days on the strip go there, no glitz no glamour and most of the patrons are locals and do have some great stories. One reason to go to Western is $1 shots, $1 beers and $1 Craps, plus they have $2 BJ- (insert joke here). Otherwise this is really not the typical Vegas crowd or atmosphere. The 41-year old property will close January 16th.

Make no mistake, this place is a dive, but it’s a fun dive!
