The former head of Las Vegas Test Kitchen, who's now working her magic with Fortune Events, catches up with Gemini. They are especially excited about the upcoming edition of Picnic in the Alley, the woman-centric food event in downtown Las Vegas. With Al on vacation, Gem carries the show, with a little help from once-again vagabond Rich Johnson, who shares the "fun" of driving from Las Vegas to Seattle in an EV. Also, visits to Sparrow + Wolf, Basillico, Petit Boheme and Echo Taste + Sound. Andrew Morgan checks the new happy hour at Echo & Rig's Henderson location, and Al (even on vacation) updates the upgrade coming to the Food & Loathing website.
