“The mouths and minds behind Lip Smacking Foodie Tours in Las Vegas have a true passion for great eats, fabulous restaurants, and memorable dining experiences. After working for years in the food, beverage, and hospitality industries, they used their knowledge and skills to create the best Las Vegas dining experience that not only showcases the best signature dishes at the most acclaimed restaurants in one convenient outing but entertains and illuminates along the way. To the untrained eye, Las Vegas’ Chinatown can seem like a bustling warren of Asian strip malls, grocery stores, restaurants, tea shops, and karaoke bars. But there’s so much more – if only you know where to look. Yet few do. Leave it to award-winning Lip Smacking Foodie Tours to show the way with its newest tour that immerses guests in this hidden world of secret speakeasies that can be accessed only through code words, covert tunnels, and concealed doors.” Vegas Insider, Donald Contursi, the Founder of Lip Smacking Foodie Tours is our guest.
