"Sail back in time, as you go through a 17-display attractive exhibition hall brimming with curios and diversions of the Titanic. Guided via prepared performers in period dress, jump profound into 100 years of history, from the shores of England to the profundities of the Atlantic. Located into a 20,000-square-foot, this museum contains shows, ancient pieces, and full ranges of reproductions of the ship areas like the Grand Staircase, a First Class Cabin, the Verandah Cafe, and the boilers."
"Also located at the Luxor, this exhibition features a collection of artefacts salvaged from the famous ship’s wreckage.

"Located on the University of Nevada, Las Vegas campus, the Barrick Museum features rotating exhibitions of everything from contemporary paintings to glass work to Ansel Adams' legendary collection of photography. Its well-curated collections and fun, hip vibe make it the perfect place to escape to for an hour or two. Admission is also free—perfect if you've been dealt a losing hand on the Strip."
"Hands down, our favorite museum is the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art, on the campus of University of Nevada Las Vegas. It hosts art from local as well as national artists.

"A fresh slice of Vegas camp for grown-ups, this stately 1938 mansion on South Las Vegas Boulevard has been turned into a house of horrors by the star of the Travel Channel’s hit series Ghost Adventures. Zak Bagan has put together a veritable “Mecca of macabre” in a home with a creepy, chequered past, where dark rituals were thought to have been held in the basement. You’ll tiptoe down winding hallways and through dark passages to more than thirty rooms, all decorated like something from a horror film and holding objects that conjure fascination and no little fear."
"A museum exhibiting the paranormal is about as Vegas as it gets. The stuff you’ll see here — which supposedly chronicles “scientifically proven” ways to communicate with the dead — is both somewhat scary and entirely weird. Check the VW van where Dr. Jack Kevorkian did his work ending the lives of patients with terminal diseases, and then meander past the wine cabinet from the movie The Possession over to the staircase from the former Demon House in Gary, Indiana, where a family was reportedly possessed by demons in 2011."
"Here, you can encounter the spine-chilling vibe of the other world which was already shown in the Ghost Adventures series. Definitely, it is valid as a notable downtown Las Vegas chateau which is transformed by the reality show star and creator Zak into a world-renowned hub of the horrifying – spooky exhibition hall. In 1938, a famous businessman called Cyril S. Wengert owned this historical center which was situated close to South Las Vegas Boulevard."
"PublicUs is one of the best places to get coffee in Las Vegas for someone who likes to socialize and connect to people through the coffee culture. Popular for brewing its unique coffee, the place is also famous for its in-house bakery specialities, calm music, and its Hawaiian vibe. The cafe has family-style seating with the best service in town that attracts many locals in Las Vegas to socialize at this cafe."
"PublicUs (pub-li-cus) is a canteen-style, neighborhood restaurant and coffee bar located in the Fremont East District of Downtown Las Vegas. PublicUs opened its doors in 2015. There are various of items PublicUs’ makes in-house such as their syrups, almond milk, sourdough toast, and more."

"Dark Moon Coffee Roasters is the only coffee shop in Las Vegas that features a ModBar. This modular brewing system consists of three taps that dispense espresso, steamed milk, and pour over coffee. You’ll find this hidden gem tucked away in a local neighborhood strip mall, and upon entering, its sparse, minimalist style decor will draw your attention to the machines and skilled team of baristas that operate it."

"Executive chef Gregory Pugin took the helm here early in 2011, bringing a modern, lighter sensibility to Le Cirque's food that's long overdue. You can still get classics like blanquette de lapin" and Le Cirque lobster salad, but one bite of his langoustines with caviar, passion fruit, apples and vodka gelée will bring tears to the eyes of even the most jaded gourmets. The service staff is virtually unchanged in 12 years, sommelier Freddy Montandon still charms the ladies while convincing the captains of American industry to order something other than a boring old California cab, and the whole place buzzes with an intimacy that is without peer in Sin City.

The menu from chef Alan Mardonovich is fittingly opulent, with a five-course prix fixe including options such as Japanese yellowtail with yuzu vinaigrette, roasted Brittany langoustine with caviar lemon beurre blanc, and citrus-glazed veal cheek."

"Wood-paneled walls and minimalist brass light fixtures hangover taupe banquettes in Partage's modern room—a sign that Las Vegas' Chinatown (the shops and restaurants along Spring Mountain Road) continues to diversify and modernize. This modern French restaurant, which began by serving only three separate tasting menus (but since has broadened to an a la carte menu) may not have the cinematic wow factor of the Strip, but it has quickly become a local favorite. Come to impress out-of-town guests with your insider knowledge of Chinatown's coolest new secrets."
"Modern French fare from chef Yuri Szarzewski, pastry chef Vincent Pellerin, and manager Nicolas Kalpokdjian arrive at Partage (French for sharing). Szarzewski’s three-, five-, and seven-course tasting menus take diners on a journey through seasonal dishes. Some of the add-ons include pork secreto cooked on a volcano stone and deglazed with soy sauce aged in whisky barrel and venison pithiviers cooked in puff pastry dough and stuffed with buttered cabbage and seared foie gras."
"Partage describes itself as a modern French dining experience, and its menu and sleek ambiance validate that description. Tasting menus are offered with three, five and seven courses ($60 - $105). An appetizer menu offers plates the table can share, like braised octopus, goat cheese or escargot."
