Night + Market... Vegas?

The mega-popular Thai restaurant, Night + Market now has a new outpost on the Las Vegas Strip. They’re a part of the brand-new Virgin Hotel and Casino (you know, like the airline), and will be serving all of the same natural wine and excellent Thai dishes that made them a hit in LA. Except now, they’ll have seafood towers, larb pad, uni-fried rice, and khao soi available from the heart of Sin City.
