Chorizo-Stuffed Lobster, Wahlburgers and a Single Pub with 365 Beers

By Sam Eichner

BEER FACTOR

A Brew for Every Day of the Year

The hardest decision you’ll make at Pub 365: Choosing from the rotating list of over 365 beers.
The second-hardest decision: Choosing between the mac-and-cheese-topped or pastrami-topped burger.
The third-hardest: Choosing whether to bring along a big group of friends. Actually, that one was easy.

WAHL IN THE FAMILY

Wahlburgers. The Strip. This Had to Happen.

The words “Vegas” and “Wahlberg” used to conjure visions of Dirk Diggler. Or Entourage. But then Wahlburgers opened their first Vegas outpost, making those same two words equally synonymous with housemade sloppy joes, panko-breaded chicken sandwiches and double-decker burgers. And the world spun madly on.

Caution: You May Get Wet Tomorrow Night

This just in: there will be a Friday night pool party at Citrus tomorrow. It will involve swimming, a DJ and copious amounts of dancing to local legend Zowie Bowie. Bikinis may or may not be present. Check back for further developments. Or maybe just go. (Just go.)

GOOSE BUMP

Vintage Ales and Chicago Pizza Dip at the Hard Rock

Chicago’s Goose Island just migrated west to the Hard Rock, bringing with them a casual pub where you’ll be privy to a lineup of brews and vintage ales, beer-battered fish-and-chips and cast-iron Chicago pizza dip. Also of note: what we did there with the word “migrated.”

MIXXER UPPER

22 Appetizers Just Weren’t Enough for Summerlin...

Chef Bryan Ogden has a new Summerlin restaurant called the Mixx. Which is great if you seek:

1) 23 appetizers, from chorizo-stuffed lobster to truffle fries.
2) Kobe beef and bison filet mignon prepared on a 4,400-pound cooking surface.
3) Words spelled with a vestigial X.
