Duke's
is fortunate to have Michael Perkins, one of the best Executive
Chefs in Nevada. As Food & Beverage Director at Dukes, he
not only administers the staff of Vivo and the Bar, but he also
trains Vivo's cooks in the delicate techniques he has aquired
over the years that make his cuisine a must to try and enjoy.
He worked for years as an Executive Chef at Caesars in Las Vegas
and has won numerous awards for his cooking and artful preparation
of dishes. Mike can take a simple dish and make it as elegant
as any
you've ever tasted or seen. We thought you might want to try some
of his simple but exquisite dishes for yourself at home, so we
set up this monthly link. We will also make sure to archive all
of these great recipes so that you can have your friends visit
the website to pick them up for themselves. Have fun and be sure
