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 Mafia Burger has a story straight out of old Las Vegas! ????
Back in the mob days of Las Vegas, the Food Factory was a neighborhood burger joint with a connection to one of the most infamous names in Vegas history. But there was something else unusual about this place — the way they made their hamburgers.
They had a simple little trick: take a small cookie cutter and remove the center from each burger patty. Save those pieces, and eventually you had enough meat for another burger. Old-school Vegas ingenuity at its finest!
Today on Buzz Cooks, I’m taking you back to Las Vegas 1979 and recreating my version of the Food Factory Mafia Burger, complete with melted cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles and an incredible homemade burger sauce.
Come for the burger — stay for the Las Vegas history.
If you love old Las Vegas stories, mob-era restaurants, classic American food and recipes with a little history behind them, you’re in the right place.
