After a comprehensive property-wide rejuvenation (because $150 million goes deeper than a facelift), the lighter, airier Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino is launching the 11th installment of Las Vegas Restaurant Week* (June 19th-30th), with a special Pop-Up Chefs Dinner.

With a collaborative menu, created by the Westgate’s team of award-winning chefs, the Pop-Up Chefs Dinner will be comprised of five courses of deliciousness, complete with paired wines; inside Fresco Italiano, on Sunday, June 18th, commencing with passed hors d’oeuvres and cocktails, at 5:30pm.

Here’s what you can look forward to:
