Wine: Paso a Paso
Schools across the valley may have already opened their doors for this school year, but we’re still collecting reader ideas for making school lunches just a little more interesting.
Paymon’s introduces some changes with its third valley location, Paymon’s Mediterranean Bistro, at the Arts Factory, 107 E. Charleston Blvd. None are on the menu, which should please fans of the healthy Mediterranean fare it serves at 4147 S. Maryland Parkway and 8380 W. Sahara Ave. In fact, the chef is Robert Rodriguez, who served as the kitchen manager of the Maryland Parkway location for six years.
Wine: Chateau Bernadotte
When the College of Southern Nevada’s “Wait Until Dark” begins, the small BackStage Theatre is in pitch blackness. We see the shadow of a man enter a small apartment. He yells, “Hello,” and remains standing in the doorway. We then hear his echoing footsteps as he either looks for something/someone or tries to hide. Seconds later, still in darkness, the apartment is invaded by a second person. The two men prowl around, and we’re not sure if they’re aware of one another, or are about to be rudely introduced. Directors Russ Benton and Chris Mayse create a thread of suspense immediately in a play that usually takes a while to get going.
