What’s Hot Now! Eater.com Vegas Heat Map

What’s hot in our humble burg? Besides the sidewalks?  See the list of muy caliente eateries below — all compiled by the  mega-foodie-website www.Eater.com and a certain critic we all know and love. (You’ll have to click on the Eater site to see the actual map.)

One caveat and one apology: The map quotes an outdated review of Bar + Bistro of ours (when it was doing a spaghetti and meatball menu). As readers of this website know, the nuevo/Latino/tapas food being done by Beni Velazquez has been a vast improvement. Also, Due Forni should also have been on the list. ELV regrets the error.

ELV’s Thought for the Day

Though regarded with disdain by the chic, and horror by the alfalfa-sprout crowd, hot dogs are flat-out wonderful. And versatile. Dripping with onions and ball-park and mustard from a Sabrett man, they taste like New York; served in little cardboard doo-hickeys and called frankfurters, they taste like America. They also make no unreasonable demands on the home cook.Vladimr Estragon
