Set to open in early winter, the 24,000-square-foot area \u2014 designed by Italian designer Munge and his firm, Studio Munge \u2014 will boast 12 dining concepts on Aria\u2019s second-level promenade. These include the first Seoul Bird outside London and the first Wexler\u2019s Deli outside Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

This is a dream destination for me,\u201d said Andy Masi, founder of Las Vegas-based Clique Hospitality, in a press statement. \u201cOur team is bringing together cocktails and cuisine from some of our favorite places in the world in one strikingly beautiful space in the middle of the Las Vegas Strip.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Proper Eats will join the likes of other upscale Las Vegas Strip food halls, including the Famous Food Street Eats food hall at Resorts World, the Block 16 Urban food hall at the Cosmopolitan and Eataly at Park MGM.<\/p>\n

Korean Soul Food with a Side of Lox<\/h2>\n

Created by chefs Judy Joo and Andrew Hales in 2019, Seoul Bird is a Valhalla for Korean fried chicken and other street food inspired by Joo\u2019s Korean-American heritage and the pair’s food tours across South Korea.<\/p>\n

“We have been looking for the ideal place to introduce Seoul Bird to the United States for a while,\u201d Joo told Forbes.com,<\/em> \u201cand when Andy Masi reached out about partnering with Proper Eats, we knew we had found it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

Wexler\u2019s Deli, which offers classic (though not kosher) Jewish food, claims to be the only deli in LA that smokes and hand-slices all meat and fish in-house. It was founded in 2014 by chef Micah Wexler and his business partner, Mike Kassar, in the Grand Central Market downtown. Later, it added a Santa Monica location. It\u2019s now run solely by Kassar, Wexler having exited the partnership in 2020 to launch grocery items featuring the brand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cWe are extremely honored to be part of Proper Eats, which will showcase a variety of vibrant flavors,\u201d Kassar told Forbes.com.<\/em> \u201cWe are excited to bring our homemade deli classics to one of the finest hotels on the Strip.\u201d<\/p>\n

Proper Eats will include Clique\u2019s newly created Temaki sushi restaurant and New York\u2019s breakfast-centric Egghead by Tao Group Hospitality \u2014 best known for egg and cheese on potato brioche bread.<\/p>\n

A Foodie Hall<\/h2>\n

Masi has partnered with hospitality leaders Jason McLeod, culinary director of Proper Eats, and Oliver Wharton, founder of A Perfect Bite, to curate this foodie collection. Previously Corporate Executive Chef of Consortium Holdings, McLeod is behind some of San Diego\u2019s top dining destinations, including Born & Raised and Ironside Fish & Oyster.<\/p>\n

Wharton has long been one of the foremost hospitality experts in Las Vegas, working alongside renowned chefs Jose Andres and Michael Mina and holding pivotal roles within some of the city\u2019s hottest restaurants and clubs.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe addition of Proper Eats to ARIA\u2019s food and beverage portfolio will deliver a fun and lively communal dining experience to our resort,\u201d said Aria president and chief operating officer Anton Nikodemus in the press statement. \u201cEvery detail has been carefully curated \u2014 from creative concepts to venue design \u2014 bringing together a first-class culinary epicenter that is approachable with a variety of options to choose based on preference, taste, or mood.<\/p>\n

“This, along with the collaborative partnership of visionaries at Clique Hospitality and Studio Munge, will elevate our food hall into a memorable destination for guests to return to time and again.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
