 IN PARTNERSHIP WITH LAS VEGAS  Heami Lee Nicole Brisson isn’t just a chef—she’s a builder of a restaurant empire. At her flagship Italian restaurant, Brezza, in Resorts World Las Vegas, she’s earned respect from both business moguls and exacting Slow Food traditionalists. If 21 years in Las Vegas has taught her anything, it’s the importance of creating what she calls a restaurant “family.” “Here, I feel like we’re kind of lifers,” Brisson explains. “It’s what we’ve really put our blood, sweat, and tears into.” Family gatherings could mean sharing recipes at staff meals or catching up over a cigar. (Turns out, she’s in a monthly cigar bar club.) Brisson knows how to satisfy nearly every possible food craving, from exceptional strip-mall Shanghai cuisine to extravagant tasting menus to true neighborhood spots—restaurants she says “feel like Cheers.” In this guide, she dishes on where to find it all.      |
