- I just landed in Vegas, and I'm really excited
because I'm going to meet my friend Katie
who's a local here,
and she says she's going to show me a side of Vegas
I've never seen before.
(upbeat music)
Hey Katie!
- Okay so we're at Vesta Coffee
in downtown Las Vegas in the Arts District,
and since today is all about the best,
I went ahead and ordered you the best cup of coffee in town.
But I got a lot planned for us today,
and we gotta get going, so go ahead and drink up
'cause let's get out of here.
- [Blaze] Cheers!
(upbeat electronic music)
Alright Katie, where to first?
- So since we're in the Arts District,
I figured we'd get straight to the heart of it,
and I'm gonna take you to the Arts Factory,
which you're gonna love.
There's about 26 different studios with modern artists,
contemporary artists,
anyway it's a great representation of Las Vegas art.
(upbeat electronic music)
- [Blaze] What do you like about the Arts Factory?
- It's a community.
It's just a bunch of artists gathered,
and we help each other out and we critique each other's work
and then, good for networking,
good for friendship, good for life, good for the soul.

- So next up I wanna take you
to one of my favorite restaurants, Esther's Kitchen.
- Nice.
- We have reservations though in about 15 minutes,
and we're meeting one of my good friends.
- Awesome, I'm hungry.
- You're gonna love this place.
- [Man] Hey, how are you?
- Hey, how are you?
(loud chatter)
(upbeat music)
- These are our ricotta gnudis.
- So cool.
- So what we're doing right here
is we're extruding the lasagnetta.
This is the best strawberry you're ever gonna have ever.
Picked yesterday.
This is hamachi from Japan.
Our whole entire ethos of cuisine
is that we're going to use
the highest quality product available.
People here in this neighborhood are craftsmen and artisans.
I'm just happy to be, you know, part of this neighborhood.
It's amazing. This is real Vegas.
(upbeat music)
- Okay, I know you're super stuffed,
but there's a bar that's actually right here,
that I have been wanting to check out called Jammyland.
They're supposed to have awesome drinks, so you in the mood?
- [Blaze] Yes, let's go.
- Yeah, okay.
- [Blaze] Cool. - Cool.
Hello. - Hi guys.
Welcome to Jammyland. - [Blaze] Hey.

- It's really cool here. I like it a lot.
- How do you feel?
- I'm good, I'm good. Where are we headed next?
- I'm not gonna to tell you.
You're just going to have to find out.
There's a lot of locals, it's a great scene.
Just trust me.
- Okay, let's go.
- Right now, we are in my favorite bar, Rebar.
And the cool thing about this place is it's not only a bar
but it's also an antique shop.
So everything you see is for sale.
- Literally, that sign is for sale.
- Really?
- If you want to buy that sign,
it's for sale. - How much for the sign?
- That right there, we paid like $1600 to make it,
we'd sell it for like $2200.
We have $3 mystery bags here.
So you can come in.
- [Katie] I saw that.
- You get a brown bag that has a mystery beer in it.
You don't know what it is,
and it's just three bucks.
We've got the funk yard behind us
so we always have local music playing
- That place is awesome.
(live band music)
- What if I wanted this chair, is this chair for sale?
And then I saw.
- We'd sell that, we'd sell that.
- Is this for sale? - Yeah, everything.
- Even this?
- [Derek] We always say,
even the bar is for sale.
- Even the bar?
- [Derek] For the right price.
- We had a blast tonight.
That was a lot of fun. Thanks Katie.
- You like the arts district? - For showing me the arts.
Oh my God, it was amazing.
- It's cool huh? - Yeah super cool.
- Cool, well we're finally gonna put this thing away,
call it a night?
