Several Valets now closing weekdays on the Las Vegas Strip

In the past two weeks several Strip Resorts have reduced the days the valet is open. One example is Paris Las Vegas. The Valet now closes at noon on Monday and reopens at 3pm Thursday. When open, the valet at Caesars Properties is available for all guests for a fee, but members rated Diamond or higher receive it for free. Many resorts have closed the valet everyday.

Self parking is available at all resorts and some offer it for free, including all MGM Properties, Wynn/Encore, Venetian/Palazzo, Treasure Island, Circus-Circus, Sahara, STRAT and others.

Grand Wok Noodle Bar at the MGM Grand to open February 12

The construction walls have been removed from Grand Wok Noodle Bar at the MGM Grand Resort & Casino on the Las Vegas Strip. It is scheduled to open February 12.

From the MGM Grand: Casual in atmosphere and authentic in flavor, grand wok features traditional asian cuisine that stays true to the style of yesterday. From wok-tossed noodles and black pepper beef to fresh seafood, tofu, and pot stickers, every dish is a reminder of just how flavorful life can be.
