Any guesses at the menu?? Might be a fun VT game to try and guess some of the dishes that will be served. Here's my guess

Fortunate Son
A dish of half baked vegetarian lasagna that should not be on the menu but Steve insists that it is and promotes it despite it's lack of substance or quality.

"Renaming Switch" - Does that imply they're leaving the changing walls/ceiling stuff?

I'm still waiting for Alex to reopen as Danenza after Nicholas Robert Danenza Hissom.

I head "an-Dray-ah" and I tend ot think the character from the old Reboot tv show, but that character is way more awesome that the doucherati that Wynn seems to want these days.

Somewhere in the dark recesses of my recent memory I recall reading something along the lines of some restaurant in the Golden Nugget being named Elaine's back in the 80's? Does anyone remember if that's possible? I also keep thinking I was drinking beer and shopping for satin jackets on eBay when I saw that mentioned:-(.

I dont think we will see Elaine Wynn dining at the new resteraunt replacing Switch.

Jeff, yes, I remember Elaine's in the Golden Nugget, but I can't find any details. Wasn't it up the escalator. I remember the original Lillie Langtry's and the Italian place with singing waiters. Here's the only reference I found, from 1985. I can't post the link due to my inability to remember @Chuck's instructions. http://articles.latimes.com/1985-06-30/entertainment/ca-55_1_golden-nugget

Great link, Detroit! If I downed a shot for every place that was mentioned in that article that no longer exists, I would have the perfect excuse not to mow the lawn today.
