What's Cooking Wednesday
  1. 9:04The Nevada Table

    Nevada's 24/7 alcohol laws, the Wild West of last call on purpose

    Why you can buy a bottle of wine at a grocery store here at midnight, why that's not true almost anywhere else, and the real reason it's been that way since before the rest of the country's Prohibition even ended.

  2. 9:18The Nevada Table

    A taco spot is reportedly taking over Old Granite Street's old space

    Back in July we told you Old Granite Street Eatery closed after sixteen years with no reason given. There's word now on what might be moving in, though I want to be honest about how solid that word actually is.

  3. 9:32The Nevada Table

    The Nugget Rib Cook-Off is back in two weeks

    The Nugget Rib Cook-Off runs September 2 through 7 at Victorian Square in Sparks. Dates, hours, and what I could and couldn't confirm about getting in.

  4. 9:47The Nevada Table

    Where the casino buffet actually came from, and why it isn't a dollar anymore

    The story of the $1 midnight buffet that was built to keep gamblers on the casino floor, and the real economics of why that model doesn't work the same way today.
