About this episode

The episode explores the quality of food at Las Vegas strip clubs and the business model behind it.

Strip clubs promise spectacle, but in Las Vegas they also promise a full menu, from late-night nachos to white-tablecloth steaks. Food writer and hedonist Gemini Stevens breaks down where the city’s clubs actually deliver, and why keeping diners in their seats is part of the business model. In conversation with Sonja Cho Swanson, they explore how Vegas blends indulgence and practicality, and whether any of these dishes are worth seeking out on their own. Clubs mentioned: Peppermint Hippo, Crazy Horse III, Treasures, Spearmint Rhino, Las Vegas Strip Club Learn more about the sponsors of this Thursday, April 16th episode: Southern Nevada Water Authority L.V.
