Resorts World Las Vegas will offer an Asian hawker-inspired food hall to the Vegas Strip’s newest megaresort, due to open this summer. Nightlife and lifestyle brand Zouk Group is behind the concept known as Famous Foods Street Eats.
According to Yahoo Lifestyle, the interactive 24,000-square-foot street food destination will offer 16 diverse food stalls from top chefs and restaurateurs, and be the only destination in the U.S. with the most Michelin Plate and Bib Gourmand-recognized concepts under one roof.
Famous Foods will also feature two commissioned art pieces by Red Hong Yi, a popular Chinese-Malaysian contemporary artist known for her mixed media interpretations. Anchoring the space will be a 10-foot tall Lucky Cat sculpture made entirely of gold coins, while a distinct eight-ton mural made of 18,000 tea bags will welcome guests upon arrival.
“Famous Foods will transport guests to an authentic Asian hawker market—an experience that’s never been replicated in the U.S.,” said Andrew Li, CEO of Zouk Group. “After months of planning and carefully curating the perfect mix of partners, Zouk Group is thrilled to be able to unveil this special culinary concept to the city of Las Vegas, and equally as excited to bring it to the Strip’s most anticipated new resort.”
“The addition of Famous Foods to Resorts World Las Vegas’s culinary portfolio will bring a completely new kind of tasting experience to the Strip,” said Bart Mahoney, Resorts World Las Vegas vice president of food and beverage. “We look forward to welcoming many of these concepts to the U.S. for the first time and offering a truly unique dining lineup inspired by Asia’s rich history, lifestyle and culture.”
