New Restaurant Glutton Will Open Friday In Downtown LV...VERY Interesting Menu!

A heartfelt passion for savoring life’s flavor drives Chef Bradley Manchester, who will debut Glutton in downtown Las Vegas on Friday, April 10 at 5 p.m. Glutton will feature an eclectic menu of New American cuisine for lunch and dinner daily.

Located on Carson Avenue, across 7th Street from Downtown Container Park, Glutton will showcase savory meats, locally sourced produce, house-made pastas and seafood from the Pacific Northwest. Created with an adventurous palate in mind, the cuisine will appeal to diners who enjoy trying new things and appreciate fresh, flavorful ingredients.

“I equate the enjoyment of good food with living life to the fullest,” says Manchester. “Glutton is about satisfying culinary desires with really great food and enjoying life’s indulgences.”

A wood-burning oven will impart rustic flavors to roasted meats and vegetables, enabling Manchester to make the most out of simply prepared yet wholesome and high-quality ingredients. Offerings will include wood-oven roasted sea bream with fennel seed, concord grape, car acara orange and white balsamic, as well as an arugula and almond wood-fired flatbread topped with goat cheese, robiola, shishito, honey and pesto.

Through a partnership with local farms, Glutton will offer custom herb and greens mixes, which will provide the foundation for his surprising fresh salad and vegetable dish repertoire, such as a shaved apple and celery salad, served with torn herbs, crushed hazelnuts, Manchego cheese and a Riesling vinaigrette. Rather than heavily salting or adding fats to many of his dishes, Manchester is fond of using generous amounts of herbs and acids—such as citrus and vinegars—to brighten his creations and “wake up” diners’ palates. A dish of shaved Brussels sprouts with kale, dill, shaved fennel, parmesan and tahini vinaigrette represents another glimpse at the lighter, yet incredibly flavorful, side of Glutton’s menu.

On the flipside, Manchester will offer some dishes crafted to be truly indulgent, such as lamb neck sugo with smoked pappardelle or Buffalo-style sweetbreads with pickled celery and whipped bleu cheese. A charcuterie plate will feature chicken liver mousse, house-made head cheese, bresaola, mustard, pickles and toast. Desserts will incorporate wood-roasted fruits, homemade ice cream, and comfort-food offerings such as apple and olive oil upside-down cake with spiced pecan streusel and cider ice cream.

A vibrant bar program will feature barrel-aged cocktails, such as the Glutton for Punishment, composed of Seagram’s gin, Cointreau and Krogstad aquavit, as well as six craft beers on draft and a variety of beers and ciders served in cans and bottles. A thoughtful wine list will offer bottles as well as many options for wine-by-the-glass.

Glutton is housed in a renovated midcentury building and maintains the original oak ceiling from its original 1955 construction. Stained concrete floors, exposed brick and a solid stone chef’s counter combine to create an industrial yet comfortable atmosphere. The restaurant seats approximately 78 patrons indoors and an additional 25 on an outdoor patio, where guests can dine among the fresh herbs Manchester will cultivate there.

Dinner hours will be 5 to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 5 to 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Lunch service will begin on April 20; lunch will be served Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Big Birthday Bash For William Shakespeare's Coming Up At Lawry's

The Utah Shakespeare Festival will hold its eighth annual fundraising event at Lawry’s The Prime Rib Restaurant, 4043 Howard Hughes Parkway, in Las Vegas on Thursday, April 23, 2015. This event will be a big birthday bash in honor of Shakespeare’s 451st birthday. Funds raised at this event help to pay for the Festival’s plays, interactive experiences, and educational programming.

“This year's gala will celebrate the birthday of our namesake so our evening will be a birthday party for Shakespeare with games, photo ops and fun for everyone,” said Development Director Jyl Shuler.

The program for the evening will feature past and present Festival company members, including Lew Haslem as the evening’s master of ceremonies. Festival Executive Director R. Scott Phillips, Founder Fred C. Adams, and Artistic Directors David Ivers and Brian Vaughn will also be part of the evening’s festivities.

This event will also pay homage to the last season in the Adams Shakespearean Theatre. After it’s dedication in 1977, this theatre has seen many Shakespearean plays come to life. But 2015 will be the last time the Festival will be producing shows in the Adams due to the 2016 completion of the Beverley Taylor Sorenson Center for the Arts, which will include the new Engelstad Shakespeare Theatre, enhancing the guest experience.

Lawry’s The Prime Rib Restaurant is generously serving as the host sponsor for the eighth consecutive year, and the Sam and Diane Stewart Family Foundation is also joining them as an event sponsor.

Individual tickets are $175. Tables of six or eight are also still available for interested parties. Proceeds from this event will go to the Utah Shakespeare Festival’s annual fund, which is essential to the Festival’s operations. To reserve tickets, visit bard.org or call 435-586-7880.
