• 2:38
  Sean McAllister: I believe we're among the top five destinations in the U.S.
• 2:44
  Sean McAllister: for Memorial Day weekend for travelers.
• 2:47
  Sean McAllister: We have a list of free things to do here in Las Vegas for Memorial Day weekend.
• 2:53
  Sean McAllister: You can hear about that in episode 169.
• 2:57
  Dayna Roselli: And listen, I wanted to update kind of the Fountain Blue project on the strip as I was a few things have happened to me recently.
• 3:04
  Dayna Roselli: The other day we, well, not the other day, a few weeks ago, we talked about I went to the Lovers and Friends Festival and I walked there from my place and we walked by the Fountain Blue.
• 3:12
  Dayna Roselli: So I actually got to see, like, without driving by or from the back view of how the construction's coming along and the front and everything, and it's looking really good.
• 3:22
  Sean McAllister: Like a kind of an up-close look you got to see.
• 3:24
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, it was like a whole new world.
• 3:26
  Dayna Roselli: I was like, oh wow, they really have made a lot of progress, you know.
• 3:29
  Dayna Roselli: And it's interesting to see how they're constructing the front area where you're gonna pull in and the side.
• 3:34
  Dayna Roselli: And so I was happy to see things really coming along there.
• 3:38
  Dayna Roselli: The other day, I was also chatting with someone who works at Resorts World and who's pretty high up.
• 3:46
  Dayna Roselli: And, you know, we were chatting about the Fountain Blue opening, and he was saying, you know, like a lot of people keep saying, like, oh, are you threatened over at Resorts World?
• 3:53
  Dayna Roselli: It's gonna be all competitive, this and that.
• 3:55
  Dayna Roselli: But he was like, no, we're actually excited about it because it's gonna make the north end of the strip more vibrant.
• 4:02
  Dayna Roselli: We're gonna share customers.
• 4:03
  Dayna Roselli: I'm sure there's going to be more options for people and you know, more like walking.
• 4:10
  Dayna Roselli: And what I what I mean is a lot of times people they stay in the heart of the strip and they're like, oh, it's too, it's too far to walk to resorts world.
• 4:16
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 4:16
  Dayna Roselli: But maybe they go more north and they go, okay, we're gonna hit the win, and then we're gonna walk to Fountain Blue, and then we're gonna cross the street and go to Resorts World.
• 4:24
  Dayna Roselli: So I thought that was a good point, you know, to kind of look in the positive light of competition opening across the street.
• 4:32
  Sean McAllister: Which I think you're right.
• 4:33
  Sean McAllister: I don't necessarily even see that as competition because you need to drive foot traffic to that portion of the strip that that has largely sat kind of empty for the past several years.
• 4:50
  Sean McAllister: So having destination properties and resorts up there now is a great thing for everybody involved.
• 4:58
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, it really is.
• 4:59
  Dayna Roselli: And you know, I also heard a little buzz, and you know, by the time this drops, it might be out there already.
• 5:05
  Dayna Roselli: But um, I'm gonna call this a rumor, and I'm gonna say it's a rumor because I have not gotten it confirmed.
• 5:11
  Sean McAllister: Okay.
• 5:12
  Dayna Roselli: Um, but uh rumor has it um that there's a piece of land right around there.
• 5:19
  Dayna Roselli: Uh, I think it's on the side of the Fountain Blue, Cross and Resorts World.
• 5:23
  Dayna Roselli: I can't remember if it's to the north or south of Fountain Blue.
• 5:26
  Dayna Roselli: I think it's to the north.
• 5:26
  Dayna Roselli: Anyway, that is parently going to be a luxury shopping area that a certain company has purchased the land and plans to put something in there.
• 5:36
  Dayna Roselli: So that'll make it even better.
• 5:38
  Sean McAllister: It would absolutely wonder more foot traffic, right?
• 5:40
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 5:41
  Sean McAllister: And I recently, uh just this past week saw pictures that were posted on uh social media of the inside of Fountain Blue.
• 5:51
  Sean McAllister: I believe it was like the fourth floor or something, and it looked beautiful.
• 5:54
  Sean McAllister: I mean, it was kind of just like a big hallway with maybe a reception desk kind of, but I mean it looked gorgeous.
• 6:03
  Sean McAllister: So they are coming along.
• 6:04
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, I think it's gonna be really, really nice.
• 6:07
  Dayna Roselli: And again, they are starting the hiring process.
• 6:10
  Dayna Roselli: I think we mentioned that in a in a past podcast, but they're starting to slowly post things.
• 6:15
  Dayna Roselli: If you're interested in in working at the Fountain Blue, go to their LinkedIn page.
• 6:19
  Dayna Roselli: I see like about, I think there was like seven jobs posted.
• 6:23
  Dayna Roselli: So they're starting to fill in those, you know, high high-end jobs first, high management, and then they'll probably get into the the other ones.
• 6:30
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, I mean, that's great.
• 6:32
  Sean McAllister: I'm excited for for Fountain Blue to open.
• 6:35
  Sean McAllister: Um, we're looking at December, correct?
• 6:37
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, December 2023 is what they their most recent, you know, announcement was because they said 2023, so they're pushing it.
• 6:46
  Sean McAllister: They are.
• 6:47
  Sean McAllister: It's the tail end of 2023.
• 6:49
  Dayna Roselli: But maybe it'll be like a surprise.
• 6:50
  Dayna Roselli: We're opening in November.
• 6:52
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know.
• 6:52
  Dayna Roselli: You never know.
• 6:52
  Sean McAllister: But one heck of a New Year's Eve party, I bet.
• 6:55
  Dayna Roselli: Oh, yeah, that's gonna be great, you know.
• 6:57
  Dayna Roselli: And in another podcast, we can talk about this.
• 6:59
  Dayna Roselli: I saw also renderings for this new kind of shopping and entertainment area across from Aria, right on that corner of Harmon and Las Vegas Boulevard, right where the sugar factory is.
• 7:08
  Dayna Roselli: Yep.
• 7:08
  Dayna Roselli: Apparently, like redoing this whole corner.
• 7:10
  Dayna Roselli: I was meant to dig deeper into that, but maybe we talk about it next week.
• 7:13
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, I think a new casino going up over there, too.
• 7:15
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, interesting.
• 7:17
  Dayna Roselli: All right, well, let's talk about Hawaiian Vegas.
• 7:19
  Dayna Roselli: We actually hit this topic a lot.
• 7:21
  Dayna Roselli: We have a lot of Hawaiians that listen to the podcast.
• 7:23
  Dayna Roselli: So, hey, aloha.
• 7:25
  Dayna Roselli: Aloha.
• 7:26
  Dayna Roselli: And we have a lot of Hawaiians that live in Las Vegas, right?
• 7:28
  Dayna Roselli: We've always talked about this.
• 7:30
  Dayna Roselli: It's been a known thing that, you know, we're kind of known as the ninth island.
• 7:34
  Dayna Roselli: But there was an article in the New York Times this week that said more and more Hawaiians are moving to Las Vegas than ever, and and named off some of the reasons why.
• 7:44
  Dayna Roselli: And I thought that was interesting because what the headline was something about um, you know, we don't have the ocean, like we are not as picturesque as Hawaii.
• 7:53
  Dayna Roselli: No, so why would you leave Hawaii and move here?
• 7:56
  Dayna Roselli: But there are a number of reasons, and a lot of it is cost.
• 7:59
  Sean McAllister: It is because if you live out on the islands or have been paying attention to uh real estate out there, I have a cousin who lives there, and uh I know that real estate is just berserk.
• 8:15
  Dayna Roselli: Interesting.
• 8:15
  Sean McAllister: Um, and it is, it's so expensive to actually live there, and it's hard to find the jobs, I think, that really support the the cost of living.
• 8:29
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 8:30
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, according to this article, it says, you know, that houses in Las Vegas have a median listing of about 460,000 compared with about 800,000 in Honolulu.
• 8:43
  Dayna Roselli: And that's according to some Federal Reserve economic data.
• 8:46
  Dayna Roselli: Wow.
• 8:47
  Sean McAllister: That's a big difference.
• 8:48
  Sean McAllister: That's a huge difference.
• 8:49
  Dayna Roselli: You can get more.
• 8:50
  Dayna Roselli: You and I were looking at some of the comments uh under the article.
• 8:53
  Dayna Roselli: I thought it was interesting because a lot of people that live in Hawaii or have family that have done the same thing were commenting.
• 9:00
  Dayna Roselli: And there were a few things that caught my eye.
• 9:02
  Dayna Roselli: And one said that um a lot of younger people were moving out of here because of all the construction jobs and are able to make a decent living, which I thought was great.
• 9:10
  Dayna Roselli: And then someone else had mentioned that, you know, with all the jobs in Las Vegas and kind of our area booming, people are coming out here making a boatload of money, putting it aside so that they can actually move back to Hawaii and retire.
• 9:27
  Dayna Roselli: Oh, you know, move home and have the life that they want to have with this money that they're gonna make by saving money in Las Vegas for uh, you know, years and years.
• 9:38
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 9:38
  Sean McAllister: And of course, since Southwest Airlines started direct flights from Las Vegas to uh Honolulu and a couple other islands, um it's made it so much more affordable to fly back and forth uh several times a year, really, if you're able to to visit family.
• 9:58
  Dayna Roselli: I hope that sticks that because sometimes I get so excited for nonstops and then they go away.
• 10:02
  Sean McAllister: I know.
• 10:02
  Dayna Roselli: Let's hope that that sticks.
• 10:04
  Sean McAllister: I think Southwest is gonna stay.
• 10:07
  Sean McAllister: I think those have been very profitable routes for them.
• 10:10
  Dayna Roselli: My friend Romy works for Southwest and she lives in Hawaii and she loves because she loves Donnie Osmond, she flies in to see the show nonstop.
• 10:20
  Dayna Roselli: So, you know, there's a purpose of this, there's there are reasons for everyone to come to Las Vegas.
• 10:25
  Sean McAllister: Absolutely.
• 10:26
  Sean McAllister: Absolutely.
• 10:27
  Dayna Roselli: The other day you and I were walking to the Garth Brooks press conference, and we walked down that hall where the Cleopatra's barge is.
• 10:36
  Dayna Roselli: It's still there.
• 10:37
  Sean McAllister: It's still there.
• 10:38
  Sean McAllister: The the hull of that ship is still sticking out into the hallway.
• 10:41
  Dayna Roselli: But the whole area next to it, which used to be a great bar, is all kind of like walls now, and I don't know if they're building something new inside there.
• 10:48
  Dayna Roselli: Anyway, that hallway was a little dead.
• 10:50
  Dayna Roselli: So then we learn old homesteads going away, and Bobby Flay's moving in.
• 10:55
  Dayna Roselli: And so I feel like that's going to be the start of a new whatever they have planned for that hallway.
• 10:59
  Sean McAllister: Um well, anything Bobby Flay does at Caesars Palace turns to gold.
• 11:04
  Sean McAllister: It really does.
• 11:05
  Sean McAllister: I mean, he had uh Mesa Grill over at Caesars Palace, which I mean was a staple from early on from his.
• 11:15
  Sean McAllister: I mean, he was one of the first celebrity chefs to come out here and open that.
• 11:19
  Sean McAllister: Uh he then shut down Mesa Grill and in the same location opened Amalfi, which is his Mediterranean restaurant.
• 11:27
  Sean McAllister: That's good.
• 11:28
  Sean McAllister: But now comes word that he's got, yeah, this new place that's moving in where old homestead was, which I did love old homestead.
• 11:35
  Sean McAllister: They had great steaks, and their seafood tower was bomb.
• 11:40
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 11:41
  Dayna Roselli: So Old Homestead is closed, and now it will open as Brassery B.
• 11:47
  Dayna Roselli: And this is gonna open in late 2023.
• 11:50
  Dayna Roselli: And you know, right there's the kind of the no boo hotel and restaurant and lounge area, and then they have the Monte Cristo cigar bar there.
• 12:00
  Dayna Roselli: Yep.
• 12:00
  Dayna Roselli: Um, hopefully the barge will reopen and it will be a vibrant hallway again.
• 12:04
  Dayna Roselli: But yeah, Bobby's great, and I know it's interesting because you know, Gordon Ramsay has, you know, a few restaurants there, Hell's Kitchen, and then he's got the brewery.
• 12:13
  Sean McAllister: He's got Hell's Kitchen, uh Gordon Ramsay Pub.
• 12:16
  Dayna Roselli: Pub, yeah, pub.
• 12:17
  Sean McAllister: Right there.
• 12:18
  Sean McAllister: Um, and then he's got a ton of other restaurants within the Caesars portfolio of properties too.
• 12:24
  Dayna Roselli: Tons, yeah.
• 12:25
  Dayna Roselli: And I asked you, I said, Does Bob do Bobby and Gordon get along?
• 12:28
  Dayna Roselli: Because I don't follow the whole chef thing too much.
• 12:30
  Dayna Roselli: And you were like, they've had their moments.
• 12:33
  Sean McAllister: I I think that there's uh there's a little friction there, I think, because I know when I've several times I've actually spoken with both Bobby and Gordon about one another, and Gordon is always saying, Listen, I try and track down Bobby all the time to get him into the kitchen so that we can do a throwdown and have it be all for charity.
• 12:56
  Sean McAllister: But every time I go and hunt Bobby down, he like ducks down a back hallway and runs away from me.
• 13:02
  Dayna Roselli: I kind of remember that.
• 13:04
  Sean McAllister: And then when I talked to Bobby about it, he was like, Listen, Gordon, bring it on any day.
• 13:10
  Sean McAllister: I'm here.
• 13:12
  Sean McAllister: They've not met face to face.
• 13:14
  Dayna Roselli: Maybe if we when because we're working on doing like a video version of our podcast eventually, as long as we get all our ducks in a row and get some extra sponsors.
• 13:22
  Dayna Roselli: So maybe that should be our like we invite Gordon, we invite Bobby, but we don't tell the other that they're on the podcast with each other.
• 13:29
  Dayna Roselli: We see what happens.
• 13:31
  Sean McAllister: That would be good.
• 13:32
  Sean McAllister: I like that.
• 13:33
  Dayna Roselli: I like that too.
• 13:34
  Dayna Roselli: Hey, Brasserie B is French, by the way.
• 13:38
  Dayna Roselli: It's a new French concept.
• 13:40
  Dayna Roselli: So uh that'll be interesting too to see Bobby doing a French restaurant.
• 13:43
  Dayna Roselli: So it will look forward to it.
• 13:45
  Sean McAllister: Hey, uh sticking with restaurants over at Mandalay Bay, they're building out uh what they're calling a fan district.
• 13:52
  Sean McAllister: And Mandalay Bay, if you don't know, is kind of ground zero for pre and post-events, uh, for games, events, concerts over at Allegiance Stadium.
• 14:02
  Sean McAllister: Because you just walk over that bridge, Harman, to get right to Allegiant Stadium.
• 14:06
  Sean McAllister: So the centerpiece of this fan district is called Flanker Kitchen and Sports Bar.
• 14:13
  Sean McAllister: And it's set to open pretty soon on June 10th.
• 14:16
  Dayna Roselli: Ooh, that'll be good.
• 14:17
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, we were just over at Wahlberg's, and we thought we were even talking to Mark Wahlberg about that.
• 14:22
  Dayna Roselli: Like this is gonna be a great spot to hit before or after a game.
• 14:25
  Dayna Roselli: Yep.
• 14:25
  Dayna Roselli: Because you need to get there a little early to walk over, you know.
• 14:29
  Dayna Roselli: So what will you do?
• 14:30
  Dayna Roselli: Because there's a bar in there and stuff.
• 14:31
  Dayna Roselli: So I think this'll be great too to have Flanker Kitchen and Sports Bar there too.
• 14:35
  Dayna Roselli: Look forward to hearing more about that.
• 14:37
  Dayna Roselli: I know um veteran, uh hospitality veteran, I should say, Sean Christie, is bringing this in, and he has restaurants like Carver Steak over at Resorts World and many more.
• 14:49
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, and he's been in nightlife here in Las Vegas for a long, long time.
• 14:56
  Sean McAllister: I mean, he was with Wynne for a while.
• 14:58
  Sean McAllister: Um, so Sean Christie knows his stuff.
• 15:01
  Sean McAllister: Carver Road Hospitality knows their stuff, and I think Flanker Kitchen and Sports Bar is gonna be a grand slam to use a sports term over at Mandalay Bay, without a doubt, because it kind of sits in a location where you come right down the escalator and it brings you to the doors that take you out to walk over to Allegiant Stadium.
• 15:23
  Sean McAllister: So it's like the perfect tailgate spot.
• 15:26
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 15:26
  Sean McAllister: Even more restaurant news.
• 15:28
  Sean McAllister: See, we told you at the beginning there was a lot of restaurant news to talk about.
• 15:31
  Sean McAllister: Uh, let's get to the summer house that's gonna bring those beach vibes all year round.
• 15:37
  Dayna Roselli: I know.
• 15:38
  Dayna Roselli: This this one is being opened by Let Us Entertain You Restaurants, which they run a number of restaurants in Las Vegas as well.
• 15:47
  Dayna Roselli: Very popular ones, very good ones.
• 15:50
  Dayna Roselli: They also actually just opened RPM at Forum Shops, but they also run Monomiga B, the Eiffel Tower restaurant, Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak, and Stone Crab, and El Segundo Soul, which is over at Fashion Show.
• 16:05
  Sean McAllister: These are all delicious restaurants, very well run.
• 16:10
  Sean McAllister: A lot of them are staples here.
• 16:13
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, so I'm excited to see what they do with Summer House because this one isn't going to be on the Las Vegas strip.
• 16:21
  Sean McAllister: This is their first restaurant that they're opening in an off-strip resort.
• 16:26
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, and it's gonna be at Durango Casino and Resort, which is opening late 2023.
• 16:31
  Dayna Roselli: We told you before they were opening that food haul with a lot of California restaurants in it.
• 16:38
  Dayna Roselli: A lot of Las Vegas ones too, but I found this interesting that Summer House is a California-inspired restaurant.
• 16:45
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, not only the flavors that you're gonna get on your plate, but they'll have a West Coast beachy vibe inside there.
• 16:52
  Sean McAllister: Um, I'm looking forward to that.
• 16:54
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, that'll be good.
• 16:55
  Sean McAllister: Show up in your board shorts and flippies.
• 16:58
  Dayna Roselli: Speaking of that, there is a new place you can hang this summer.
• 17:04
  Dayna Roselli: And this is a speakeasy style bar called Pier 17 Yacht Club, and it's hidden inside the Green Fairy Garden.
• 17:13
  Dayna Roselli: You know where that is, right?
• 17:14
  Dayna Roselli: That's at Caesar's Palace at Absinthe.
• 17:16
  Sean McAllister: It is right out on the plaza there.
• 17:19
  Dayna Roselli: It'll be a good spot.
• 17:20
  Dayna Roselli: Anything that's connected to Absinthe and Spiegel World is always good.
• 17:23
  Sean McAllister: And the perfect place to catch some yacht rock, right?
• 17:26
  Sean McAllister: They'll probably be pumping some of that through the speakers over there.
• 17:29
  Dayna Roselli: And they were doing this little thing recently where they had like if you showed up with no pants on, you got a free drink or something, and I was like, wait, is this for real?
• 17:36
  Dayna Roselli: But they always are like very outlandish.
• 17:39
  Sean McAllister: Well, I I think the new burger spot over there is called like no pants.
• 17:43
  Sean McAllister: I think that's a and if you show up with no pants, you get a free burger.
• 17:46
  Sean McAllister: But I mean, we don't want to.
• 17:49
  Sean McAllister: I guess it depends depends on the time of day.
• 17:51
  Sean McAllister: And after however many drinks you're gonna have, you may be swayed to drop trout for a burger.
• 17:57
  Sean McAllister: Oh my gosh, that's crazy.
• 17:59
  Sean McAllister: Hey, I was excited to hear this.
• 18:01
  Sean McAllister: Um, there was a show that I really loved, and that that I heard you were going to see Shin Lim over at the Mirage.
• 18:10
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, and you've interviewed Shin Lim um for a Vegas on episode, and I hadn't been able to see it yet.

  Dayna Roselli: Um, Perez's son got called out um and said, you know, stand up and pick a number, four-digit number.

  Sean McAllister: I don't know.

• 19:45
  Dayna Roselli: I liked how they switched back and forth between them.

• 19:51
  Dayna Roselli: I'm like combining his name now, Shim.
• 19:55
  Dayna Roselli: Um I was talking to him about the fact that he does, you know, they do that purposely, just to keep it moving.
