» Cravings dining at atlantis casino resort spa
May/June 2008
Dining options at the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa in Reno already cover culinary standards spanning from Japan to Italy, and by June diners can have a taste of our own East Coast as well. The new 160-seat Manhattan Deli and Restaurant will serve New York-style sandwiches and other fare so reminiscent of the Big Apple, you might have to remind yourself that you aren’t at Midtown’s boisterous Carnegie Deli.
» Cravings battle-born brews
March/April 2008
Brewing beer is as American as apple pie. After all, the Pilgrims and Founding Fathers George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Samuel Adams engaged in this fruitful enterprise. Nevadans must be true patriots, evidenced by the medley of breweries that dot the Silver State. Three of Nevada’s earliest modern breweries—Big Dog’s, Great Basin, and Ruby Mountain—have set a precedent of excellence.
» Cravings a dutch touch
January/February 2008
Dutch ovens are wide-bellied, cast-iron pots that have been around for centuries. The colonists brought the incredibly durable pots with them in the 1600s, and they were eventually toted to Nevada and other Western states by settlers such as the Mormons and Basques. Clint Combs, his wife, Elizabeth, and his sister, Tina Stallard, still practice this time-tested cooking technique.

» Cravings sagebrush saloons
September/October 2007
Dollar bills pinned to the ceiling and a woodstove in the corner form the distinctive décor of the small-town Nevada saloon. The friendliness of the bartender matches the laid-back mood, and on warm days you’ll see gleaming motorcycles lined up in the parking lot, their owners talking bikes. Nevada’s back roads are dotted with such retro watering holes, or “sagebrush saloons.” Most are open from 10 a.m. until “whenever.”
» Cravings tender loving care
July/August 2007
When the smoke is billowing alongside Phred’z Restaurant and Catering in Elko, you know it’s Thursday. That’s the day owner Fred Smith barbecues outside—no matter what the weather. Phred’z meats—back ribs, pork loin, and sirloin-are slow cooked over mesquite charcoal on a smoker. Like they are at Phred’z, smoke and slow cooking are the hallmarks at Lucille’s Smokehouse Bar-B-Que in Henderson.
