I’m still in Las Vegas,with one trade show down and one more to go. “E”came in on Valentines day and stayed through the weekend and a few college friends came to town as well. The weather was great,we got out to Red Rock Canyon for a hike and ate some very good food. If there is one thing I like about Vegas,it’s the food! Saturday night we went to Piero’s. It’s an Italian restaurant that has a very good Osso buco (their signature dish) and it did not disappoint! Actually,I tried their Osso buco for the first time in August and had to go back again this time around. If you like Osso buco and find yourself in Las Vegas,I highly recommend Piero’s. It’s on the pricey side but a throw-back to the glory days of Las Vegas. Check out their website. The first paragraph of their “history”page reads:
In 1982 Freddie Glusman opened Piero’s Italian Restaurant on Karen Avenue. It quickly became a hangout for Las Vegas locals and celebrities like the Rat Pack,politicians,and some of those businessmen in the casino industry with Italian surnames,the “local color”guys.
Just try not to make anyone mad if you go:)
PS:I wanted to take the photo before I started eating but it looked so good! and I forgot:)
Oh my,osso buco goodness as I’m staring at that fork that is stuck right in the middle of the BEST PART! The marrow/midollo! Ohh! That pic is to cry for…
Ha ha. It is ok,Joe. I always forget and start eating,too! Sometimes you just can’t help it.
It doesn’t help that I often have Pep over my shoulder,muttering something like,“um. ok. we can eat now.”
Hi Joe,I left a comment before but it didn’t show up? Anyway..I like this dish. I like it a lot
I am posting a “white”version soon.
