Vegas Uncork'd - Burgers and Beats with Black Tap

On Saturday night Edible Skinny kicked it late night at Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer for a night of burgers, beats, and of course, shakes during Vegas Uncork'd. 

Attendees sampled mouthwatering Black Tap Las Vegas snacks, burgers, and signature cocktails with a live DJ spinning tunes to keep the vibes pumping.  Chef/Owner Joe Isidori was master of ceremonies at chow time!  Samplings included Zesty Cheese Queso and Chips, Shrimp Tempura with Sweet Chili Lime, The All American Burger comprised of Prime Beef, Lettuce, Tomato, Pickles, American Cheese & Special Sauce, and (my Fav) The Greg Norman composed of Wagyu Beef, House Buttermilk, Dill, Blue Cheese, and Truffle Mayo.  Can we say Yummm (with 3 Ms)!

The Sweetest Thing!!!  The highlight on this party was the "one-time-only opportunity" to create your very own CrazyShake milkshake.  With a curated list of specialty “Vegas Uncork’d” ingredients, guests were able to let their imagination and taste buds go wild with a custom shake. 

And Hello Bell Biv DeVoe!  There was also a lip-sync battle where guests could wow the crowds with their favorite 80s pop and 90s hip hop.  You can see Matt in action on the last photo of pack!
