On the dining out scene: Guy Savoy, a Michelin three-star chef, has opened up a restaurant in Caesar's Palace in Vegas. SIV re-visits a very old classic, Dan Tana's, and gives it only half a star! No matter, the place has enough of its own star - the clientele. There are lots of Kosher delis out there, but Sassi is a Kosher Israeli restaurant that serves Mediterranean and North African food.
In the kitchen: Cookbook author John T. Edge makes southern home-style food. Regina Schrambling makes three pudding cakes from rum, coconut, key limes, and Valrhona cocoa.
There is no Wine of the Week. Instead, SIV tries Plantation Rum Guyana Old Reserve 1990 as the Spirit of the Week. It's $36 for a bottle and pairs well with...a good book.
