The Firefly location closest to the Vegas Strip was shut down this week because of a large problem with salmonella. 90 people got sick and may file a lawsuit. That’s not good. Every person I know who loved Firefly went for its bacon wrapped dates which are a classic dish with actual spanish tapas (not to [...]

by Marc April 8, 2013
Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas at Night

Remember the initial marketing campaign (“The Right Amount of Wrong“) for the Cosmopolitan? It was fortuitous in every way. Cosmopolitan is a really nice hotel with lots of good restaurants and bars. They also have the nightclub that brings in the most money in America with Marquee. Not too many people gamble at Cosmopolitan but that’s [...]

Dog Statue Cosmopolitan Las Vegas

I haven’t been to the Cosmopolitan all year until Easter Sunday (GASP!) so forgive me if this isn’t new. On the second floor between the sportsbook and restaurants towards Wicked Spoon there used to be a giant high heeled shoe that people used to pose inside of and take pictures. On my trip this weekend [...]

by Marc May 11, 2012

Earlier this week I wondered aloud if Cosmopolitan was sold or on the market. After re-reading both articles I sourced and seeing responses here and on twitter I think it’s safe to say that Cosmo wasn’t sold to a drug company. It’s time to hypothesize what will happen to Cosmo. That said, it seem look as [...]

I was looking to see if Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas (full name for Google) reported earnings last week. I knew they were going to be delayed, but I haven’t heard anything and was curious. I didn’t find earnings because they haven’t been reported. That can’t be good. In that search I found an article about Deutsche [...]

Playboy Tower Palms

I don’t like passing on rumors, but if I see or hear the same rumor enough times I figure that there must be fire near all the smoke. The most recent rumor is that the Playboy Club, which is closing at Palms, will be re-opening next year at Cosmopolitan. First there was a comment on [...]
