🍳 The Burger Crawl Final Four & Winner Announcement EpisodeWe’ve reached the semi-finals in our Steakhouse Burger Crawl — and the contenders are fierce. The burger finale 4th of July episode is coming in hot. Flavor wins. Fries might break the tie. And Sam still inhales his before the photo is taken.
🇨🇦 John’s Canadian Culinary Comeback TourVancouver’s still got Roots — but does it still have flavor? John weighs in after a few hits, many misses, and a lot of mid-Atlantic menu déjà vu. Bonus points for no visible homelessness and functional donut shops. Also, tipping culture has crossed the northern border. Proceed with wallet.
🐔 Bar Boheme, Chicken Feet, and the Cult of the ChainSam finally tries Bar Boheme’s rotisserie chicken and promptly joins the foot fetish community. Plus: an unexpected encounter with the Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, AKA the Rotary Club of Food Snobs. Chains, ribbons, oversized wine glasses — and John’s absolute contempt.
🍸 Where We’ve Been
Pisces stuns Sam with seafood, steaks, and serious design.
Stubborn Seed gets Ash’s stamp of approval (and a better burger than expected).
Doberman becomes a cocktail favorite thanks to three-piece suits and Thai-inspired Tom Kha Fizz.
Echo Taste & Sound brings the vibes — jazz or not.
Featherblade Craft Butchery delivers the meat. Period.
Winnie & Ethel’s still wins breakfast, even if the hostess needs to chill
🔥 Pet Peeves of the Week
John says loud restaurants and exposed toes can ruin any dining experience.
Ash is over smug Gen Z hosts and their breakfast power trips.

🍳 Steak. Egg. Burger. Madness.:
We’re on location at Carversteak Las Vegas to tackle their brand-new Steak & Egg Burger — stacked with Wagyu rib cap, Gruyère, crispy shallots, horseradish cream, chimichurri, and a sunny-side egg. Is it too much? Or just enough?
👨🍳 Meet the Mastermind: Executive Chef, Daniel Ontiveros:
From Therapy to Carversteak, Chef Daniel walks us through the burger’s surprisingly simple origin story, his take on Vegas hospitality, and why great chefs put ego aside.
🍸 Let’s Do Le Spritz:
Legendary mixologist and Vice President of Beverage & Hospitality Culture, Francesco Lafranconi, teaches us how to make the perfect spritz — plus cocktails with chorizo, the Aperol-industrial complex, and why bartenders are society’s underrated therapists.
🔥 Pet Peeves of the Week:
John says it’s time to retire smoked cocktails. Ash wants ice out of sparkling water. And Chef Daniel’s pet peeve? Chefs who won’t cut a damn steak. Bonus: hard truths about bar pet peeves with Francesco (spoiler: your bartender hears everything).

🍔 Cro-Burger Alert – 1228 Main makes the croissant burger real. Crescent vs. round? It’s delicious either way — but maybe limit it to nine a day for maximum hype.
🥩 Steakhouse Burger Wars – Carversteak drops a $45 Wagyu + egg bomb. John calls it yolk porn for bros; Ash says it's the Instagram tax.
🍸 Bar Boheme’s Late-Night Steal – $15 burger and fries after 9PM with a drink. Add foie gras if you're feeling bougie.
🌮 Taco News – DJ Flores is taking over the old La Casa De Lucy. Handmade tacos coming soon to the Arts (Booze) District.
🐟 Pisces Delivers – From olive oil cake to grilled dorade and the best fried shrimp in Vegas, this might be the best new restaurant of the year.
🍜 Pasta Ramen Review – Great bao and pork cutlet. But the gyoza? Gimmicky. The pasta? Monochrome and underwhelming.
🦪 Pet Peeve – John goes off on Eater Vegas’ “suckitude” after a glowing article romanticizes the oyster bar at Palace Station. Pasteurized oysters ≠ raw oysters. Fight him.
👃 Nose Ring Debate – A spicy generational debate breaks out over nose rings and service standards. Ash wants context; John wants standards. Someone bring in HR.

🔪 Italian Food Smackdown: John unleashes on Battista's Hole in the Wall and the state of Italian-American slop across Vegas. Monzù – Italian Oven + Bar? Amazing. Vetri Cucina? Great. Battista’s? Legendary for the wrong reasons.
🍸 Cocktail Conspiracy: John's pet peeve of the week targets the shrinking, weakening cocktails plaguing Vegas bars. Are we being duped one $22 drink at a time?
🍔 Burger Crawl & Bun Battles: Holsteins opens, Oscar’s tweaks their cheese, and the burger crawl enters its final stage. Are steakhouse burgers dominating because size does matter?
🦆 $40 Duck Deal: The best bang-for-your-buck Peking-style duck in town? John reveals where to find it — and why it's worth it.
🥐 Croissant Smashburgers? Ash dreams big and tries to convince 1228 Main to stuff a burger in a croissant. Culinary brilliance or breakfast crime?

🎯 Bramàre & Table 34 Closed — John unpacks the Glusman family feud that shut down two Vegas restaurants. Felony charges, threats at Piero’s, and a cautionary tale: Never go into business with your family.
🍔 Burger Crawl Math — $31 for the burger, $30 to park? John’s not having it. We break down the true cost of Strip steakhouse burgers and why Nicco’s and Mae Daly’s are looking better every day.
💐 Mother’s Day Mayhem — John Curtas vs. Mother’s Day. Spoiler: He’s undefeated. Why it's the worst restaurant holiday and how to do your mom a favor by not taking her to brunch.
🥩 Bar Boheme Revisited — Sam finally tries the duck and steak tartare, declares both a triumph. Ash backs him up… a rare moment of unity.
🍕 Mother Wolf Redemption Arc — Ash returns to the scene of the salt and finds redemption at the bar. Diavola pizza, croquettes, and no production-level service required.
🐚 Casa de Raku — Wagyu meatloaf, foie gras tartine, and a sherry list to die for. Just bring your own wine and maybe a stretcher.
🥐 Le Cafe du Vegas (Spring Mountain) — Croissants > cooked food. New outpost still finding its footing, but worth a visit for the pastries.
🧀 Welsh Rarebit 101 — You will learn something today. John gets cheesy with some culinary trivia.
🍽️ Jose Andrés Steps Back — The chef's pivot to Hollywood with Martha Stewart signals his quiet exit from the empire that bears his name. What it means for the brand.

On Today’s Menu:
💔 Tribute is paid to Christopher Janz, a respected figure in the Las Vegas food community, who passed away unexpectedly.
🍞 Daily Bread vs.1228 Main – The carb wars begin! Ash and John dive into their favorite loaves, legendary focaccia, and the casual joy of grabbing a fresh-baked gem to go. Plus, a shoutout to the ginger chicken salad that channels the spirit of Wolfgang Puck’s long-lost Xinhua.
🍗 John's Reluctant Buffalo Wild Wings Adventure – John steps into the world of wings and sports bars (not his usual scene) to "mingle with the hoi polloi." Spoiler: the crowd of casual diners isn’t quite his vibe, but he’s here for the full Vegas experience… even if it means enduring questionable food choices.
🥩 Bavette’s Breakdown – Ambiance vs. access at this steakhouse. A third-full dining room, $93 filets, and the mysterious refusal to seat tables until hours later set the stage for a scathing (but fair?) review. The burger gets benched for now, but limp Lyonnaise salads and $35 glasses of wine don’t escape judgment.
💸 The $100 Steak Apocalypse – John predicts the inevitable: triple-digit filets becoming the norm. From Peter Luger to Vegas strip pricing, the meat market is evolving — and not always for the better.
👕 Pet Peeves, Dress Code Dramas, & “Gay Beef” – Rants about the fall of fashion etiquette in upscale dining, the cultural shift, Gen Z sneaker clout, & whether women should be blamed (or praised) for their schlubby partners.

This week on Eat. Talk. Repeat., Ash is hungover, John’s annoyed by everything, and Sam's eager to argue about burgers. We’ve hit 15 of Vegas’ top steakhouse burgers, and now it’s time to start winnowing it down to the Final Four. (Spoiler: emotions are running high, and nobody agrees.)
On Today's Menu:
🥐 Full review of Bar Boheme, the elegant new Parisian bistro on Main Street. Duck liver, Dover sole, pâté en croûte, and flaky tarts — is this downtown’s most grown-up restaurant yet?
🍔 Burger crawl drama, venue gripes, and why $50 parking might kill your appetite.
📍 Where we’ve been: Barry’s, Letty’s, Ocean Prime, Mae Daly’s, Nom Pang, and Le Club.
🔥 Food News: Vegas Unstripped lineup, DW Bistro’s farewell bash, Farside Pizza opens, and why Food & Wine's Top 10 Cities list left Vegas off (again).
🙄 Pet Peeves: Hostess stand theater. Barriers to a burger. And Ocean Prime’s holding cell of doom.
Grab a fork, pour a drink, and tune in — this one’s layered like a good tart flambé.
