VIVA LAS VEGAS: WHY YOU’LL NEVER VISIT THE SAME SIN CITY TWICE
Vegas or also known as ‘ The city that never sleeps’.
From the railroad town to Rat Pack, from casino kingdom to a new era of shows, food and shopping, Las Vegas has made a career out of change.
The Strip’s latest makeover blasts it into the 21st century. The 550ft High Roller Ferris wheel and The Park, a sprawling patio filled with modern bars, restaurants and the brand new T-Mobile Arena, are just two of the new arrivals.
Every time I return, something has changed, it feels like a different city.
In The Park, get thee to Sake Rok (sakerokvegas.com), which really needs to be experienced to be believed. The Japanese venue not only boasts a delicous menu, but the staff – who are dressed to impress (think geisha meets Marc Bolan) – perform impromptu numbers such as The Backstreet Boys’ Everybody (Backstreet’s Back) as you’re dining.
It’s the perfect place to get you ready for one of the famous gigs Vegas has to offer or a saunter down The Strip.
