Las Vegas Restaurants: ‘You can find great fish in the desert’

January 28, 2010 By Leave a Comment

Entrées, like the Pan-Seared Ahi Tuna, are 2 for the price of 1 at Aliante Station's MRKT on Sundays from 5pm - 6 pm.

OK, I’ll admit it, I’m a “Foodie.” While I’m at it, I’m a “Wine Geek,” too. It just sort of happens to you when you live in the Bay Area as long as I did.

When I moved to Las Vegas, from San Francisco, I knew I’d be able to find plenty of great food. After all, several of the Bay Area’s best chefs have restaurants in town — if you don’t mind going to The Strip. But what surprised me was how good the seafood is. You expect great seafood in San Francisco. The place is surrounded by water, and joints like Aqua, Farallon and Water Bar certainly don’t disappoint. But out here, in the middle of the desert? Who knew?

So my first trip to Red Rock’s Hachi blew me away. That fish wasn’t just alright, it was as good as any I’d had in LA or San Francisco. And creative, too (after all, Executive Chef Linda Rodriguez did come from Nobu). I’m not ashamed to say I pigged out.

The next time I ran into amazing seafood was at Aliante Station’s MRKT Sea & Land steakhouse. My dinner date and I started our meal off with a Seafood Jackpot for two. Have you seen one of these things? It’s a huge bowl full of ice that they pile high with king crab legs and claws, oysters, blue crab meat, shrimp and a split lobster tail. All as fresh as can be. Heck, it makes a great meal if you order a side of vegetables (or not). And to make things even better, they had a nice champagne by the glass (Perrier Jouet, at the time). Fresh shellfish with champagne is as perfect a match as a juicy steak and a big cabernet. (Told you I was a Wine Geek.)

Anyway, I’ve since found more fantastic seafood both on and off The Strip, as well as other Station Casinos restaurants. And I can say I’m a believer. You can find great fish in the desert.

I’d love to hear where your favorite seafood spots are.

And let me know what you like to order, too.

There’s nothing I like more than finding a cool new restaurant!

Cheers,

Jeff Perry
Sr. Ad Writer, Station Casinos

Gotta Love the Gift Card!

December 18, 2009 By Leave a Comment
giftcardsarticle

Billions of dollars in gift cards go unused every year. We're thinking that they aren't for Station Casinos.

Everyone loves gift cards. We love to give ‘em. We love to get ‘em. Want proof? Americans spend tens of billions of dollars, about $80 billion according to market research, on gift cards every year.

Why the fascination?  They’re easy. Flexible. And people can get what they really want.

Somewhat shockingly, a fair percentage of those billions of dollars go unused. Some $8 billion, or around 10 percent, in gift cards go unused nationally each year.

Here’s a solution: Give a gift card that people actually want, will use, and enjoy.

Like at – you guessed it – Station Casinos!

EASY: You can buy online or at most of our casino locations.

FLEXIBLE: Station’s gift cards can be used for thousands of choices at eight of our Las Vegas casinos including hotel stays, spas visits, restaurants, gift shops and more.

PEOPLE WANT IT: Who wouldn’t want to choose from dozens of delicious dining options, exciting Las Vegas hotel deals or smoothing spa treatments.

Happy Holidays!

Have you ever received a gift card and not used it. Tell us below.
