59 minutes

Welcome back to Eat. Talk. Repeat. This week, we cover more ground than any other podcast or journalist in town! From the latest restaurant openings to our burger crawl plans, plus some food news you can actually use, we’ve got it all. John’s even willing to put a steak dinner on the line!

Burger Crawl Planning:

Wally’s is now officially on the Steak Burger Crawl list.

Creating a list of 10 spots with a deadline, ranking them, then narrowing it down to the top 4 for a battle royale.

Real hammer and tongs arguments will determine the ultimate steak burger in Vegas.

Food News You Can Use:

Salt Bae’s Nusr-Et closes – a restaurant based on a meme never has a place shut down with less fanfare.

Havana 1957 opens at Flamingo – Cuban sandwiches, mean cortaditos, and unbeatable pork-on-pork action.

Barter Beer/Mall – an antique mall with a bar?

Lotus of Siam original location reopening? – John keeps hearing “wait and see.”

Echo On Colorado – Quietly opened, featuring music and food.

Krung Siam Thai Restaurant & Bar now serves breakfast! Open until 4 AM.

World Bagel Eating Championship at Siegel's Bagelmania: Joey Chestnut will be there – can he break last year’s record of 15 bagels in 8 minutes?

Blue Diamond’s Cottonwood Station Eatery gets new owners

Quick Questions for Curtas:

John’s late-night snack? Cereal with milk and sugar. Total guilty pleasure.

Sam’s? A baguette with FRENCH butter from Cafe Breizh. Duh.

Ash’s? Cheese and pickles. Or cold pizza. Checks out.

Longest Sam has left pizza out? 30 minutes. John & Ash? 18 hours.

Pet Peeves:

Sam: Peaveless.

John: Tired of people asking dumbass questions on social media.

Ash: When the waiter brings the check after being asked to, and everyone gives their cards, but they still take forever to return. OBV, we’re ready to leave!

John: DW Bistro (props to Bryce and Dalton), Ada's Food + Wine, Carama (top 5 Italian strip restaurant).

Ash: Washing Potato (half Peking duck!), Yukon Pizza, Gjelina Las Vegas (Cali-Italian veggie-centric legend), loved the food but not the room.

Sam: Ohlala French Bistro (best French bistro brasserie duck in town!), Sushi Hiro (easy to get in and fabulous), Brezza Italian (crudo & meats, no pasta), Esther's Kitchen Brunch (smoked trout toast).
