It’s not even officially Summer yet and the mercury has already topped 100 degrees for a solid week.

ELV is glad the days are heating up, because that’s the only thing that’s hot in Vegas these days.

Our restaurant scene may seem muy caliente to some — with Daniel Boulud, Guy Fieri, Mathias Merges and Giada What’s-Her-Name all opening new joints in the last two months — but it’s still pretty boring with a capital “B” from where we’re sitting.

Social Media Meltdown on News 88.9 FM KNPR – Nevada Public Radio

In case you missed it, click here to hear ELV’s commentary of last Thursday about his various adventures in the social media world, delivered in the lyrical, lofty, heroic, sublime, epic and eloquent tones for which he is known.

And a free holiday turkey to anyone who guesses the name of that marvel of Mediterranean mediocrity from which ELV has been forever banned. Hint: Its initials are Paymon’s Downtown Mediterranean.

Eating Las Vegas on Twitter!

Don’t ask us exactly how it works….but if you click here, you can now follow ELV’s insights on everything from tiramisu to teeth-flossing….

In the coming weeks we’ll be twittering(?) tweeting(?) from the major food events that are coming up — from DISH to Epicurean Affair to Vegas Uncork’d, as well as the 6-10 different restaurants we eat in every week.

And even though we don’t understand why it’s such a phenomenon, or who would be interested in one sentence descriptions of our many meals, or what the hell we’re doing acting like a 15 year old girl (furiously texting on our cellphone in public places), ELV and his staff will henceforth be providing this service(?) to our readers on a trial basis to see if there’s an interest or following out there.
