may feel a little overwhelmed by the 60,000 square foot
Tao complex that includes a massive nightclub, a
restaurant, an ultra lounge and a rooftop beach club.
You may feel intimidated by the line outside, which is
the physical proof that if Tao were a high school

| Designed
with a European sensibility, XS is furnished in warm
browns and gold. Tables with plush couches form
concentric circles around a small dance floor, and a
disco ball-inspired chandelier casts circles of
flickering light onto the dark floor. Textures are
everywhere – metallic snakeskin on the banquettes,
ultra suede on the couches – and large pillars covered
in mosaics of tiny mirrors reflect the space.

| The
Fantasy Tower at the Palms got its name for a good
reason. Moon nightclub, high atop the 53rd floor,
transports visitors into a fanciful space-age themed
club with Jetsons-like décor and shiny silver-uniformed
cocktail waitresses. The color-changing glass tile
floor, lasers and space imagery give the club a
futuristic vibe. Moon brings the outdoors inside on warm
nights when the roof retracts to offer a clear view of
the desert sky and (duh!) the moon. When the roof is
closed, the ceiling serves as a massive screen,
projecting images of exciting scenes from the club
below. |

@ M Resort |
| I
don’t care about wine. Don’t get me
wrong; I toured a vineyard once. It was
simultaneously boring and complicated, a
combination that reminds me too much of
school. Trapped in a room of mysterious
metal vats, I decided I’d rather let my
friends pick my wine. From that point on, I
put my effort into cultivating a taste in
fine friends with full “body,” great
“legs” and a fantastic “finish.” And
that was that …

Until my editor suggested I check out M
Resort’s Hostile Grape, and its amazing
mechanical wine dispensers (known as vending
machines in lesser-heeled circles).
One
Friday evening I sped south on the 15,
gleefully passing the gridlocked northbound
lanes full of California tourists. Dreading
the wine, I allowed myself to be distracted
by a crowd at the pool’s bar—a line of
people self-serving catered food. It felt as
if I was crashing a wedding. I was okay with
that.
|
|
|
| Turns
out the food was free. It seems I’d stumbled upon the
30-something, upscale, exurb utopia. Because M is a step
beyond encroaching suburbia, the place opens up to the
sky instead of a light haze. That clean surrounding
darkness makes it look and feel like an oceanside
resort. A live reggae band completed the illusion.
When the
bartender filled my plastic cup with wine (I was trying
to stay on task), I couldn’t tell whether he said $2
or $10. Considering the free food, free music and classy
atmosphere, I’d have been satisfied with either price.
I handed him a $20 and waited for my answer. When he
returned a large cluster of bills, I wondered: Had our
Founding Fathers dared to hope for an America this
beautiful? A Wild West so manicured?
I doubted I
could find a wine in Hostile Grape that would please me
more than the $2 plastic cup of unknown provenance. Old
Vegas hospitality in one of the newest casinos in town.
When happy hour
ended at 9:30, I reluctantly met my fate. As makes
perfect sense, Hostile Grape is located in a cellar. You
make a grand entrance, descending a barrel-lined walkway
into a warm and cozy yet modern bar. If the same bar was
in Manhattan, it’d be expensive and exclusive, and
rightfully so. Instead, random locals wandered in.
Nobody seemed to notice how opulent everything was.
What’s the nicer version of the phrase “like pearls
before swine”? Or perhaps entitlement is just a
holdover from the boom days.
Despite my
naysaying, I do sometimes buy wine as a gift, and I have
a system for that type of purchasing. Unfortunately, it
only works at grocery stores. Foiled by a wine list with
no pictures!
Here’s what I
do: I start with a color and a price range: Say, $10 and
red. Then I go to the $12 section and look for the
discounted bottles. Of the $12 bottles of red wine that
are on sale for $10, I pick the bottle with the
coolest-looking label.
This is where
the taste and discretion come in. You don’t want a
bottle that’s too cartoony. That signifies a juvenile
flavor. On the other hand, you don’t want a wine with
a plain label; this shows a wine overly mired in the
status quo. A winemaker unwilling or unable to take
risks. BORING. The best wine is in a bottle that has a
spark of creativity, but not to the point of being
silly.
To my surprise
and joy, my system works at Hostile Grape. The Dr.
Seussical contraptions that dispense wine directly from
the bottle allowed me to understand firsthand the sense
of power and creativity of the sommelier. What the
self-service dispenser lacked in customer service, it
made up in the choice of fun.
For example, I
selected a 2006 Napa Valley Petite Sirah. The label
design: A silver embossed crescent moon hanging over the
name “Spellbound” on top of a matte black
background. I can’t explain the tannins or anything,
but the wine tasted awesome. Understated and sublime,
just like the label’s design.
Two downsides:
1.) You must buy a $5 card to use the machine, and then
put money on it in $25 increments; and 2.) the machine
offers three different-sized pours, but lacks the
generous hand of a human bartender.
Perhaps the fee
is pushy. And the concept a little gimmicky. But isn’t
that what’s Vegas is about? Free appetizers, cheap
drinks and in the end, a little novelty to get you to
spend all that money you saved.
