Wienerschnitzel
Classic Chili Cheese Fries

Wienerschnitzel’s signature Classic Chili Cheese Fries are made with hot, fresh and golden French fries topped with a chili so delicious they have to keep the recipe a secret and freshly melted shredded cheddar cheese.


Philly’s Best

New Rare Artifacts Now On Display At Titanic Exhibit Here In LV


Due to popular demand, seven rare artifacts recovered from RMS Titanic’s wreck site will be on display for an extended period of time at Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition inside Luxor Hotel & Casino and are available to view now through Monday, Aug. 1, 2016. The special display , which include paper documents, textiles and personal belongings of actual passengers aboard the “Ship of Dreams,” were brought in for a limited three-month engagement on the anniversary of the Ship’s sinking on April 15. On Aug. 1, the remarkable treasures will be permanently retired from public view and returned to Premier Exhibitions’ monitored conservation facility, only available to historians, archeologists and other qualified researchers.

“Titanic is as fascinating to audiences today as it was when it set sail on its maiden voyage in 1912,” said Alexandra Klingelhofer, vice president of collections for Premier Exhibitions, Inc. “We are pleased we are able to extend this special display to help tell the story of the Ship and some of its passengers before their permanent retirement, which is essential in order to preserve them and keep Titanic’s memory alive for generations to come.”

The rare artifacts include:
·         Declaration of Intention Form: 2nd class passenger Franz Pulbaum, a machinist originally from Germany, clearly intended to become a U.S. citizen upon his return to New York City. He had been on a business trip to Luna Park amusement park in Paris.  The form would have been used to allow him a smooth disembarkation. Pulbaum’s signature and personal information is still legible on the naturalization form. Pulbaum never became a U.S. citizen, he went down with Titanic.

·         White Star Line Receipt for “One canary in Cage”: Recovered from Marion Meanwell’s alligator purse, this small receipt fragment appears to confirm that 3rd class passenger, Mrs. Meanwell (nee Mary Ann Ogden), a milliner from Eastbourne Sussex, England agreed to transport a relative’s canary from Southampton to Cherbourg.  Additional information suggests that Chief Purser Hugh Walter McElroy took responsibility for the bird, while transport payment was provided by Mrs. Meanwell.

·         Cotton Pajamas: This pair of men’s pajamas is made of white cotton with blue stripes.  No maker marks were found, they are a size medium with button shirt and drawstring bottoms.  The deterioration around the neck and body appear to reflect normal wear and tear.

·         Pair of Gloves: This degraded pair of cotton gloves was originally white and probably belonged to a gentleman. They are still attached at the cuff, so they had not yet been worn.  The gloves were recovered from a suitcase containing unmarked pajamas, jackets, and other clothing.

·         Waiter's Pad Blank Page: Waiters from the exclusive à la carte restaurant on board would jot down lunch and dinner orders on pads such as this for the chefs to prepare in the galley.  Unlike the First Class Dining Saloon, which cooked in larger quantities, the à la carte restaurant prepared each individual meal to order.

·         Pair of Socks: This is one of three pairs of cotton and silk socks recovered from a single suitcase.  These were neatly folded by the owner for his Titanic journey.  While the clothing in this passenger’s suitcase was of good quality, these socks have been darned in several places, showing a thrifty character as well.

·         Left Shoe: This men's leather shoe fragment consists of the welt, top cap and partial quarter with the insole.  Attesting to the meticulous care under which all artifacts are conserved, this shoe has never been previously exhibited due to its fragile condition.

Titanic’s wreck site was first discovered on Sept. 1, 1985, 2.5 miles below the ocean’s surface off the coast of Newfoundland. Dedicated to preserving Titanic’s legacy, Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition takes guests on an emotional journey through the life of the legendary ship. Along the way, visitors learn countless stories of heroism and humanity, paying tribute to the indomitable force of the human spirit in the face of tragedy.

Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition is open daily from 10 a.m. – 10 p.m. with the last admission at 9 p.m. For more information and ticket prices, please visit www.premierexhibitions.com.

Delano Las Vegas Support Local Artists! New Exhibit “SpaceTime Kinetics”


Continuing its celebration of local artists, Delano Las Vegas debuts “SpaceTime Kinetics,” a new exhibit of freestanding artworks by Las Vegas-based Cristian Aluas.

“SpaceTime Kinetics” is a concept-driven art series featuring six pieces inspired by the relationships people create with each other and the energy each person shares with the universe. Aluas uses this motivation to design sophisticated, thought-provoking three-dimensional works of art.

The creative process begins during the design phase with careful consideration of each piece, followed by the assembly of locally sourced carbon steel and materials from Nevada’s natural surroundings. Each piece is completed with a pateen finish for a refined and glossy look.

“We are excited to showcase this elegant yet impressive installation by a talented Las Vegas-based artist,” said Matthew Chilton, general manager of Delano Las Vegas. “Art and culture are important aspects of the Delano experience and we enjoy sharing our energetic ambiance and style with guests from around the world.”

With more than 25 years of experience in fine art, Aluas enjoys creating various art concepts including large-scale murals, paintings and installations. He is currently an art instructor at Bet Yossef Community Center in Las Vegas and holds degrees in Creative Writing and Studio Art from Concordia University in Montreal, Canada.

Located in Delano’s lobby, “SpaceTime Kinetics” is on view now through September 30.
