SNOW ANGELS

S’mores, Spiked Eggnog and Ice Skates

The Cosmopolitan is reopening their 4,200-square-foot ice rink. It’ll have fire pits for roasting s’mores, a few new drinks like the Egg Noggy Nog and more of their ever-popular snow showers. So if you planned on going to Vegas to escape the snow... well, it’s fake, so you’re still good.

LOCKDOWN

Your Very Own Bourbon Locker

Your high school locker: Probably contained a lunch, textbooks and a photograph of Cindy. Your bourbon locker with a personalized nameplate at Yardbird: Will grant you and only you access to limited-edition bourbons from the restaurant’s distributors. New locker for the win.

GHOST TOWN

Your Not-So-Wintry Day Parties: Here

The Ghostbar Dayclub is a weekly wintertime extravaganza at the Palms. Yes, extravaganza. And here’s some new stuff to look out for this year: “After Dark” parties with extended hours; weird new drinking vessels; a rather excessive “Make It Rain Celebration” package. Don’t worry about what that last one is.

CROMWELL PLAYED

There’s a Leaning Tower of Chocolate

Fancy your surprise when you stumble upon Giada this weekend, where they just launched a new brunch with things like a Leaning Tower of Chocolate, lobster hash and an Italian chicken and waffles dish. Did you fancy it? Cool, just checking.
