Notes: Located at the Galleria at Sunset mall in Henderson, NV

With those qualities established, Dippin' Dots were ready to take on the world!

Dairy Queen

Phone: 702.433.1273
Address: 1300 West Sunset Rd. Henderson, NV 89014

Notes: Located at the Galleria at Sunset mall in Henderson, NV

For more than 60 years, the Dairy Queen system's recipe for success has been simple. It's been a combination of hard-working people who own and operate restaurants and great-tasting food and tempting treats served in our establishments.

The founders of the Dairy Queen system were men and women who introduced a new kind of dessert treat and, in the process, developed the foundation of the franchising industry. The history of the Dairy Queen system is a story of a unique product that created an industry.

Our phenomenal story began with a 10 cent sale of a then unnamed product on August 4, 1938, in Kankakee, Illinois. A father and son in the mix plant business in Green River, Illinois, had been experimenting with a soft frozen dairy product for some time. They contacted Sherb Noble, a good friend and customer, who agreed to run the "all you can eat" trial sale at his walk-in ice cream store. Within two hours, he dished out more than 1,600 servings of the new dessert.

Back then, food franchising was all but unheard of, but the new product's potential made it a natural for such a system. When the United States entered World War II in December 1941, there were less than 10 Dairy Queen stores. However shortly after the war, the system took off at a pace virtually unrivaled before or since. With only 100 stores in 1947, it grew to 1,446 in 1950 and then to 2,600 in 1955. Today, the Dairy Queen system is one of the largest fast food systems in the world with more than 5,900 restaurants in the United States, Canada and 20 foreign countries.

Although much has changed in the world and in the Dairy Queen system through the years, one constant has remained: Dairy Queen stores are still, and always have been, the place to find Little League teams celebrating a victory, business people on their lunch break and families taking time out to enjoy great food and soft serve treats. And, success for the Dairy Queen system is as simple today as it was in 1940. Satisfied customers lead to successful restaurants. Each owner of our independently owned and operated establishments worldwide are committed to nothing less than the slogan "We Treat You Right."

Hawaiian style plate lunches (two scoops rice, one scoop macaroni salad & one meat, chicken, fish or pork dish). Believe or not they even have an Atkins version of the plate lunch, minus the rice and macaroni salad, of course. In Hawaii, the Chicken Katsu plate is the top seller along with the barbeque chicken.

Trader Vics (Coming Soon)

Phone: 510.658.9722
Address: 3663 Las Vegas Blvd. Las Vegas, NV 89109

Notes: Located at the Miracle Mile Shops in the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino

From Trader Vic's--

Victor J. "Trader Vic" Bergeron packed more excitement, enjoyment and exotica into his 82 years than any other man.

It all started when Victor Jules Bergeron was a waiter at San Francisco's Fairmont Hotel and owned a grocery store on San Pablo Avenue in Oakland. His son - Victor, (Jr.) - grew up loving the food business, living with the family in an apartment above the store and helping out downstairs. A childhood accident cost him a leg, but left him with a penchant for telling colorful stories.

In 1932, with a nest egg of $700 and carpentry help from his wife's brothers - plus his mother's pot-bellied stove and oven - the ebullient Victor built a cozy pub across the street from the store and called it Hinky Dink's. His pungent vocabulary and ribald air made him a popular host, as did his potent tropical cocktail concoctions and delicious Americanized adaptations of Polynesian food.

Soon one of the most popular watering holes in Northern California's Bay Area, the place attracted sophisticated urbanites like writers Herb Caen and Lucius Beebe. By 1936, when Caen wittily wrote that the "best restaurant in San Francisco is in Oakland," Vic had become "The Trader" and Hinky Dink's had become "Trader Vic's," complete with a showpiece Chinese oven. Its South Pacific theme "intrigues everyone. You think of beaches and moonlight and pretty girls. It is complete escape," Vic said at the time. Among Trader Vic's more tantalizing legacies is the original Mai Tai, the bracingly refreshing rum cocktail he created at the restaurant in 1944 and introduced to the Hawaiian islands in the 1950s. Tahitian for "the very best," Mai Tai became the slogan for his entire operation.

In creating his new cocktail, Trader Vic employed what was becoming the ever-present hallmark of all his food and beverage recipes: a light touch, meant to enhance but never disguise nor overpower the fine original taste of his main ingredients. All of his recipes reflect the man's own personality: distinctive, lighthearted and memorable.

By 1946, the world had beaten a path to Vic's door, prompting Lucius Beebe to write in an introduction to "Trader Vic's Book of Food and Drink" published by Doubleday that year: "Trader Vic's is ... more than an Oakland institution. Its influence is as wide as the Pacific and as deep as a Myrtle Bank punch. Vic's trading post is long on atmosphere, and it is possible for the ambitious patron with a talent for chaos to get into more trouble with obsolete anchors, coiled hausers of boa-constrictor dimensions, fish nets, stuffed sharks... Hawaiian ceremonial costumes, tribal drums, boathooks and small bore cannon than the waiters can drag him out of in a week."

The Trader eventually opened 25 Polynesian-style restaurants around the world, and several Señor Pico Mexican restaurants. His son, Lynn Bergeron, eventually took over the restaurant operation and remains Chairman Emeritus of Trader Vic's Restaurant Company.

The Trader's eldest daughter, Jeanne B. Hittell, is retired, having served for many years on the Board of Directors and as Secretary/Treasurer of the Trader's companies. Daughter Yvonne E. Seely, is also retired after decades of dedication to charity work on behalf of Trader Vic's.

Address: 3663 Las Vegas Blvd. Las Vegas, NV 89109

Notes: Located at the Miracle Mile Shops in the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino

Pampas Churrascaria was created by a visionary businessman who had spent his youth in Brazil. Memorable meals in Churrascarias left an indelible imprint in his mind. The stunning vistas of southern Brazil, or Pampas were also a part of his childhood. The Pampas is the high plains of southern Brazil where the finest cattle graze on the unique grasses of the land. Fertile and abundant is this area, producing the finest the land can give. It seemed fitting that the name that would one day be emblazoned on the entry of his vision would be Pampas. After assembling an impressive group of successful businessmen and women as an advisory board, nearly three years of exhaustive research and development was necessary to open our first Churrascaria. Today the true experience of Brazil lives here at Pampas. The finest cuts of meat simply prepared and spit roasted to juicy perfection and choice vegetables at their peak of freshness grace the menu that is uniquely Pampas. The future is filled with visions for growth and expansion. Through the attention to detail and quality that has placed Pampas at the pinnacle of the service industry, this vision will become reality.

Nestle Tollhouse Cafe

Phone: 702.731.6477
Address: 3663 Las Vegas Blvd. Las Vegas, NV 89109

Notes: Located at the Miracle Mile Shops in the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino

From Nestle Cafe--

Back in 1930, Mr. And Mrs. Wakefield purchased a Toll House located halfway between Boston and New Bedford, Massachusetts. Built in 1709; the house had long been a haven for weary travelers in search of food, drink and change of horses.

In keeping with the Toll House tradition, Mrs. Wakefield baked for guests at her Toll House Inn. As she improved upon old recipes, Mrs. Wakefield's incredible desserts began attracting people from all over New England.

While experimenting with the Butter Drop Do, a favorite Colonial cookie, Mrs. Wakefield cut a bar of Nestlé® Semi-Sweet Chocolate into tiny bits and added them to her cookie dough, expecting them to melt. Instead, the chocolate held its shape softening into a delicately creamy texture.

This delicious discovery was dubbed the Toll House Cookie.

Soon, everyone wanted to know how to make this widespread favorite. With Mrs. Wakefield's permissions, we put the recipe right on the wrapper of our Semi-Sweet Chocolate Bar.
As the popularity of the Toll House Cookie continued to grow, we looked for ways to make it easier for people to bake. First we produced a special, scored chocolate bar that could easily be divided into small sections. Then, we began offering tiny pieces of chocolate in convenient, ready-to-use packages -- and that's how the first Real Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels were introduced.

Since they were first used in the Toll House Cookie, Nestlé Semi-Sweet Morsels have satisfied the chocolate cravings of millions. Today, they're used to make hundreds of delectable chocolate desserts all across America.
