Here’s where to celebrate National Strawberry Day on Tuesday.
Food
The signature Mr. Tang cocktail of the MGM Grand’s new high-end Chinese restaurant China Tang, named after its founder Sir David Tang, is a play on the 19th-century Improved Brandy Cocktail.
This Hell’s Kitchen cocktail, while in the Manhattan family, is actually a cross between a Little Italy and a Paper Plane that is smoked for good measure. While few of us have a proper smoking box lying around the house, enjoying a Smoke on the Boulevard cocktail near a campfire, fireplace or wood-burning stove and passing the glass through the smoke might tide you over until you can score a reservation at Gordon Ramsay’s new Caesars Palace hot spot.
Bobby Flay, Gordon Ramsay, Giada De Laurentiis, Guy Fieri and Steve Martorano hosted the “Salute to Vegas Heroes” tribute to first responders Saturday at Caesars Palace.
