Muhammad Ali at the GOLDEN STEER
It was quite a weekend at the Golden Steer.
ELV was there Friday afternoon, interviewing owner Dr. Michael Signorelli and his staff for an upcoming article in VEGAS magazine.
That night, Muhammad “I am the Greatest” Ali dropped in for dinner.
On Sunday, we came by in for one of thirty-year waiter Camacho’s signature Caesar salads:
