I’ve been getting a number of search inquiries on this website for something called The Wicked Spoon. Never one to miss an opportunity to give our readers what they want, here’s some scoop on The Wicked Buffet.

Well, The Wicked Buffet is the name of the new buffet at the New Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas. Although I’m out of town for the time being, I do know that the Cosmo is set to open today – December 15, 2010. What are the chances that the buffet is opening at the same time?

Buffet information will soon be posted on the main website pages. Although there’s not a tremendous amount of information on The Wicked Spoon as yet, here’s some info on The Cosmo Hotel:

Here’s a re-post from the Review Journal – December 12, 2010:
Make way for the Cosmopolitan

“Even before The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas opens Wednesday, gaming industry analysts are saying that to succeed financially the hotel-casino will have to offer something different from what is found at other properties along the Strip.”

“The Cosmopolitan also needs to generate income for Deutsche Bank AG, which acquired the property out of foreclosure in 2008 and spent $3.9 billion to complete the 2,995-room hotel-casino.” read more about the financial stuff…

“Continuing: The 100,000-square-foot casino will feature 83 table games and 1,474 slot machines, according to the company.”

“Cosmopolitan officials also signed a deal with Cantor Gaming to run the property’s race and sports book. The book is expected to open in the first quarter of 2011, pending regulatory approval.”

“An agreement with Marriott International Inc. that will provide The Cosmopolitan with access to a database of travelers is also expected to help attract visitors.”

“The property features 36,000 square feet of high-end retail shops, including British-brand AllSaints and Beckley, a boutique featuring women’s clothing and accessories.”

“The Cosmopolitan is unique among Strip hotel-casinos in that its vertical design places shops, restaurants and other amenities on multiple floors throughout the two 50-story towers.”

Good luck on the opening Cosmopolitan.
