Watch UFC 118 in Las Vegas at Station Casinos

August 25, 2010 By Leave a Comment

Oops! You found an older post.
Go here for information about our UFC Viewing Parties for this weekend!

Will it be "Lights Out" for Toney in his UFC debut?

UFC 118′S GOT the lightweight title rematch with Frankie Edgar and BJ Penn, a tough call after their last title fight that Edgar won by decision.

MMA vs. Boxing: How long will James Toney, a very accomplished boxer with legendary hand speed, last in his UFC debut? That seems to be the question surrounding “Lights Out” in his throw-down against accomplished MMA legend, Randy Couture.

As if those two Main Events weren’t enough, Saturday’s under-card is overflowing with some of the most exciting 155 and 170 lb. talent in the UFC: Kenny Florian, Gray Maynard, Nate Diaz , Demian Maia and Marcus Davis all have been known for thrilling finishes.

Watch as five of our Las Vegas Hotel Casinos host Viewing Parties on Saturday, August 28 for UFC 118, live on Pay-Per-View from the TD Garden in Boston.

A few notes to accompany the info below: pre-sale admission to the Viewing Party at Sunset Station’s Club Madrid starts at 5pm, and you can call ahead for table reservations at GVR event. Enjoy!

August 20, 2010 By 3 Comments

LAST TIME, OUR chefs hand-picked 10 of the Best Appetizers in Las Vegas. Our series highlighting some of the finest dining in Las Vegas continues here with our freshest, tastiest, most fun summer salads. Once again we went straight to the experts, the chefs at our fabulous Vegas restaurants, and here’s what they lettuce know.

Our Favorite Salad No. 1: Shrimp Salad

Where: The Broiler at Boulder Station

Chef Diana’s Comment: The Broiler’s shrimp salad is featured every day on our salad bar. It’s light and delicious with a touch of dill.

Our Favorite Salad No. 2: Cantina Fajita Salad

Where: Amigo’s Mexican Cantina at Fiesta Henderson

Chef Frank’s Comment: Fajita style! We begin with a bed of freshly chopped lettuce and add our special blend fajita steak or char-grilled chicken. Accompanying our flavorful meat is diced avocado, diced tomatoes blanketed with shredded cheese and topped with crispy tortilla strips and your choice of dressing.

Our Favorite Salad No. 3: Greek Salad

Everything to Know About Our Las Vegas Cabanas

August 3, 2010 By Leave a Comment

AAH, THE GOOD life. Lounging poolside at a fabulous Las Vegas Hotel Casino. Catching some rays. Maybe a nap. Sipping something cool. What could be better? Answer: Cabana. Yes, based on the information gathered below, a cabana makes all those things better.

See, here at the SC Blog we are mostly untanned, sort-of-pasty persons, as our lot in life is predominately staring at computer screens with artificial overhead lighting.

We wanted to know more about cabana rentals (aka, the good life) and so contacted the experts (probably very tan people) at four or our Las Vegas pools that rent cabanas. You know what we found out? – it’s all true, and the sweet life is even sweeter than we thought. Las Vegas cabana rentals at our pools are even better than imagined.

The Cabana Club at Red Rock is open to locals Saturday - Monday.

@ Red Rock Resort, some of the cabana amenities include:

  • Personalized Cabana Host
  • Chilled fresh fruit fondue
  • Complimentary lotions
  • Use of Nintendo Wii System (upon request)
  • Naked Juice 4 (orange, mango, strawberry-banana, blueberry machine)

Visit the Red Rock Resort Cabana Club page

Affordable poolside luxury at Sunset Station.

@ Sunset Station

  • HDTV
  • Stocked refrigerator with nonalcoholic beverages
  • Fruit tray
  • Fan and misters

More info on Las Vegas cabanas at Sunset Station

Cabana or Cabed? Can't go wrong at the Aliante.

@ Aliante Station

  • Each cabana has a plasma TV
  • Each cabana has misters and a fan
  • Your cabana can be stocked (additional fee) with amenities like soda, juice, water and a fruit basket
  • The cost of a cabana starts at $75
  • They also have cabeds, which, we are told, are padded California king-sized beds that come with an umbrella and table

More info on Las Vegas cabanas at Aliante Station

Las Vegas Restaurants: Sneak Peek at IL VINO

June 28, 2010 By 7 Comments

ALIANTE STATION IS opening a new Italian restaurant called IL VINO Cucina & Wine Bar today!

With dishes starting at under $10, Il Vino offers an affordable menu of Italian fusion cuisine (or use “authentic Italian cuisine”). ImenuFor those with smaller appetites, they even offer a small bites menu, with appetizers for just $4! It has a huge wine cellar too, if that’s your sort of thing. Enjoy their special La Valle tomatoes with your date, or the whole family!  And, most importantly, the food is outstanding based on the recent sample tasting. We think it will be one of the best Italian restaurants in Las Vegas and hope that it will become one of your favorite places to dine.
