Las Vegas Retail Center To Offer GREAT Prices! Bazargain Is Coming!

Las Vegas’ first retail center from online liquidator Bazargin is set to open to the public with a grand opening weekend beginning Saturday, June 7, 2014. The retail center will offer discounts as high as 75% off retail pricing on name brand items such as Dyson, Temper-Pedic, Step2, Better Homes and Garden, Bowflex and Cuisinart. All items are brand new and in original factory packaging.

Las Vegas’ first true liquidation retail center has a constantly rotating stock and receives truckloads of new items on a regular basis. Inventory includes home furnishings, furniture, bedding, outdoor furniture, toys and children’s items, kitchen and electrical appliances, athletic and fitness equipment, outdoor/camping equipment, assorted home goods and clothing.

Local businesswoman Lisa Kragerud, who saw an opportunity to provide families like hers with a place to take advantage of incredibly deep discounts, is opening Bazargin after spending 32 years with the same company.

“In this day and age, when a family’s income is being stretched further and further, there is no longer a need to pay full retail,” Kragerud says. “We offer the same items as major department stores at a fraction of the retail price. You no longer have to go without or decide between needed items; I can’t wait for customers to see how much they can save on major name products!”


Bazargin is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. For more information, find Bazargin at bazarginlv.wix.com/bazargin or on Facebook, Craiglist and Rumgr. For more information call 702-533-7723.

How To Prepare For The Las Vegas Epicurean Event! Fabuleux!!

Guest at Event
Venetian and Palazzo Executive Chef Olivier Dubreuil and Las Vegas Epicurean Affair Host, Chef Julian Serrano
How To Prepare for The Las Vegas Epicurean Event

Every year some of Las Vega’s famous and most popular restaurants come together for an epic feast;  the Las Vegas Epicurean Affair hosted by James Beard award-winning chef Julian Serrano. A multitude of fantastic food, fine wine and tasty desserts all come together to form a delectable fabulous experience.
This event takes over all three pools at The Palazzo and The Venetian and features food booths that range from Delmonico’s Steakhouse,  Capital Grille and Ferraro’s and Carmine’s.  Each food group is well represented from sushi, to steak, to Italian to Mexican and more.  There is so much delicious food to sample that I believe that a short course in how to prepare for this experience is in order.

Three days prior to event start to prepare your system by eating very lightly. Items such as yogurt and fruit for breakfast and soup for lunch and dinner; day two before the event   pretty much the same items and then the day before the event would highly recommend light soups and water , coffee or tea. Day of the event now this is very important, because your system will soon be bombarded with a plethora of different food types and inviting cocktails and fine wines and decadent desserts stick with the same menus of light soups and water and maybe fruit and toast for breakfast.
Fruit Loop Marshmallow Treats

Six o’clock arrives and you check in and stroll out onto the pool deck at The Palazzo. Immediately the aroma of cooking food wafts towards you. What is at the Il Mulino booth, well only fragrant melts in your mouth mushroom ravioli! Wait the Carmine’s booth has a huge portion of their famous lasagna with all fresh ingredients and with two different cheeses.  The list goes on with restaurant samplings from Aquaknox, B&B Ristorante, Bouchon, Buddy V’s, Burger Bar, Carmine’s, Carnevino, DB Brasserie, Delmonico Steakhouse, Ferraro’s, Herbs & Rye, Il Mulino, Simon Restaurant & Lounge, TAO Asian Bistro and Wolfgang Puck’s Postrio, and more. Another highlight of the evening were the handmade Dosa’s from Mint Indian Bistro, a dosa is a thin savory crepe made with fermented rice and lentil batter and is served with coconut chutney and spicy sambhar.

With delicious offerings from these restaurants that have made Vegas one of the finest epicurean destinations in the world it is very important to pace yourself. Along with the food are fresh cocktails and one especially tasty one that was a watermelon margarita!  Save room for dessert with one of my favorites of the night coming from Simon’s Restaurant and I could have had more than one of the fruit loop marshmallow treats!
Proceeds from the evening will benefit NvRA’s educational and scholarship programs, including ProStart®, a national high school culinary skill and restaurant management program.   So if you have not attended an Epicurean Affair be sure and put it on your bucket list!
