Gordon Ramsay Steak at Paris Las Vegas - FIRST LOOK

Photos were just released giving a sneak peek inside the upcoming Gordon Ramsay Steak at the Paris Las Vegas. In a town full of the world's most renowned chefs, this is the first  for Chef Ramsay who is well-known for his restaurants around the globe, in addition to his wrath with wannabe aspiring chefs on the hit show Hell's Kitchen. According to our friends at Caesar's Entertainment, Gordon Ramsay Steak will be a "fresh, high-energy dining environment that playfully transports guests from Paris to London . Set within the Paris Las Vegas resort, which is whimsically modeled after the "City of Lights ," the restaurant design will celebrate Chef Ramsay and the city of London , where he lives.  This innovative concept will reflect edgy, exciting and bold designs and will bridge the resort’s Parisian theme with Ramsay’s British heritage."  The restaurant is slated to open in mid-May of this year. Get ready, Las Vegas.

IT"S IT - The Original San Francisco Sweet Treat

IT'S-IT has been a San Francisco tradition since 1928, where it was found at the refreshment stands of San Francisco's former historic amusement park, Playland at the Beach. It's "a delicious scoop of ice cream sandwiched between two oatmeal cookies and dipped into a dark chocolate coating." Although I wasn't around when Playland was around, I do remember consuming IT'S-ITS from the local grocery store. This tempting childhood dessert of mine comes in coffee, vanilla and mint flavors. As you can see from the photo above, I still can't resist.

Waterbar's $1 Oyster Happy Hour - San Francisco

Oysters and bubbles go hand in hand and at these prices (although it does add up quickly), Happy Hour couldn't come sooner. With $1 featured oysters from 11:30 am - 6:00pm daily and $5 Prosecco and additional cocktails from 3- 6 pm on weekdays, a visit to Waterbar with its waterfront Bay Bridge views, is an ideal spot to gather with friends on the patio. Just pray for decent weather and bring a scarf - the must-have SF accessory. Oh, and a side of warm, crispy french fries pairs well with the above.
