The menu includes some of his favorite cuisines, including: Grandma's Meatballs, My Wife's Eggplant Parm, Grilled Salmon, and Shrimp Scampi. For dessert, guests will choose between Buddy V's famous Cannoli or the daily chef-selected dessert.
After lunch, enjoy the many sights of the Las Vegas Strip before you prepare for your nighttime adventure.
