The Blue Ribbon Brasserie at the Cosmopolitan.

Medium Tyler Henry was fantastic at the Star of the Desert Arena in Primm (44 miles south of Las Vegas) where he performed for more than 3,000 fans. The star of the E! TV show “Hollywood Medium” dazzled in a 90-minute show that was well worth the $150 for two front-and-center seats on the main floor. The 22-year-old psychic hosts the highest-rated show on E! and travels with his mom and dad between filming episodes.

The Blue Ribbon Brasserie at the Cosmopolitan is wonderful. Chefs and owners Bruce and Eric Bromberg operate 23 premier culinary destinations across the U.S. The upscale restaurants offer everything from teriyaki meatballs served with a spicy Chinese mustard and scallions to broiled oysters with garlic and Parmesan aioli. The BBQ ribs are delicious as is the specialty — extra crispy fried chicken. Try the bread pudding for dessert; it’s outstanding.
