Old vegas

There was quiet appreciation of the Strip of 1956-68. The "Good Guys" called my mom back from KC to gather good cocktail waitresses to open Caesars.

Alpine Village Cottage Cheese. This closed Bavarian Village Restaurant in Las Vegas featured cottage cheese with a seasoned mix that is still talked about to this day. I make up the spice mix and use it in dips and other meals.
