Las Vegas Hot August Happenings: Food, Drink & Fun

New Things To Do This Summer In Sin City 

Venetian Resort Resigns Pool Like The Italian Riviera

The Venetian Resort has completed a dramatic redesign of its pool deck. Taking design cues from the Italian Riviera – including sculptural art pieces and quaint gardens – it has private plunge pools and other “over the top” amenities. It is open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., and is scheduled to remain open through October (unless Vegas gets a cold snap, which can happen). There’s no entrance fee and you can reserve a cabana with food & beverage minimums. For the public tho,  there’s one catch: you have to be a hotel guest to use it. It is located within the Venetian hotel tower.

A Vegas Showgirl Bootcamp? Heck Yeah!

Burbank’s Trustworthy Brewing Co. & BBQ Now At The Palazzo

Burbank used to get a lot of ribbing from Johnny Carson, but he did not get a chance to drink any craft beer from that within-LA city. Trustworthy Brewing Co. & BBQ, which focuses on artisanal small batch craft beers, has opened up at the Grand Canal Shoppes at The Palazzo. Some beers are brewed on site. There is also a full bar. Food is comprised of smoked meats and barbecue. It is open from 5-11 p.m.
