BTW, I greatly enjoyed your exchanges a few weeks ago with a certain insufferable poster in one of the DL threads.
Thanks very much
KevinDTW and for the insight into the reason there are no floors 40-49.

On the other hand, I just ate at Sinatra's for the 3rd time in 3 years! I love the vibe of that place. I talked to our waiter (Jay) on our last visit, and he told us that Mr Wynn wants everything to be perfect all the time - he's clearly got his finger on the pulse of the property and everyone cares about the experience, and it shows.
Thank you
CRAZ8. We just love Wynn/Encore. Service is wonderful and the attention to detail is extraordinary. Interesting to read your take on Jean-Gerorges Steakhouse. We had good service, but the whole experience just wasn't a wow. Other than offering Jean-Georges a ton of money to put his name on the restaurant, not sure why he is here. The location is terrible. And yet another steakhouse? He has so many other wonderful restaurant concepts. Why not a Nougatine?

Thanks very much

I was disappointed at Jean Georges - steak was just okay and the Bone Marrow was horrible! But you know Vegas - lots of restaurants to choose from.
Cheers, Kathy
Thank you Kathy. Interesting to hear your take on J-G as well. There are so many other great restaurants and chefs here.

Any idea whose 747 that is parked with the Luxor in the background?

Thank you
SkiUtah747 for identifying Adelson's 747SP. Still a beautiful bird.
