On Today’s Menu:
🎯 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.

🍔 Burger Crawl Update — Official countdown begins. 4 steakhouses. 3 critics. 1 burger to rule them all.
Email us at [email protected]: hate mail goes to John, praise goes to Ash, and Sam just wants his duck confit, thanks.
