Party bus runs for Knights fans
The guys at Naked City Pizza are throwing their support behind Las Vegas’ new hockey team and offering fans a chance to extend the game-day parties and avoid the hassles of parking at T-mobile Arena. The chain’s Paradise Road location will team up with the neighboring Office Bar to provide a party bus to and from every Golden Knights home game. The round-trip ride will cost $10, and food and beverage packages and game-day giveaways are planned. Reservations are being taken for October games at 702-722-2241 or christopher@nakedcitylv. com.
Flock & Fowl expanding
Former Joel Robuchon and Comme Ca chef Sheridan Su is bringing his popular West Sahara Avenue lunch spot Flock & Fowl to the heart of downtown Las Vegas. The second location, called Flock & Fowl DTLV, will be considerably larger than the original, and will be on the ground floor of
The Ogden in the former
Itsy Bitsy Ramen & Whiskey. Expected to open in the fall, it will feature an expanded menu, full bar, lunch and dinner hours and a Sunday brunch. Su says the menu will be “more global” than the limited offerings at the original location and that brunch will combine Asian and American dishes the way he does at his other restaurant, Fat Choy.
