An Old Fashioned, some red lipstick and a black dress…sigh, there’s just something undeniable about a good ol’ classic. The beloved Vegas showgirl may be an endangered species these days (insert tear), but “VEGAS! THE SHOW” preserved those feather-clad beauties and the likes of an era when everything was flashier and dripping with sophistication. What’s that you ask? Can a show filled with gorgeous and talented women a la Rat Pack era really exist in the here and now? Oh yes my friend, it sure can and all we have to say is raise that curtain and let the good times roll. With a little song, a lot of dance and that certain sultry allure that only old timey Vegas could pull off, this is a trip down memory lane and, well, it’s pretty legit. The costumes are fun, funky, sexy and so real. Ok, well maybe not the candy-themed costumes but hell, their Sammy Davis Jr. sure had us pining for an autograph. For a city that was built on pure, raw talent and obviously dolla dolla bills, this show celebrates iconic moments from the city's rich entertainment history through the decades that made the Vegas we know and love today. And we’ll tip our top hats to that.

The punchy flavors of Isan cooking — spicy, sour, salty, deep umami — from northeastern Thailand and the Japanese izakaya tradition of grilled meats link arms at Kinzuu Izakaya, a newish restaurant in southwest Las Vegas. The name Kinzuu draws inspiration from a Thai phrase meaning “let’s eat together.”

Kinzuu Izakaya is the latest project from Sasi Phothidokmai, founder-owner of the Weera Thai Group of six Vegas restaurants, including the new spot.

“Our family has proudly operated Thai restaurants in Las Vegas for nearly 20 years, and Kinzuu represents an exciting new chapter for us,” Phothidokmai said in a Monday announcement. “Being from Northeastern Thailand, I wanted to share the authentic flavors I grew up with while combining them with my love for Japanese izakaya culture.”

Although Kinzuu quietly opened about two months ago, the restaurant is holding a grand opening celebration at noon Monday at 7395 S. Rainbow Blvd., Suite 120. The event features a ribbon-cutting, remarks by community figures, traditional Thai and Japanese dances, food and drink specials and a meet-and-greet with the owners.
