Dana Point: The Stonehill Tavern at St. Regis Monarch Beach Introduces $39 Value Menu

EricRosen — 2009-09-15T15:14:15-05:00

Though much of the recent reportage about the St. Regis Monarch Beach in Dana Point has been about the popular luxury resort’s financial troubles, we found at least one bright spot, economically speaking: the new $39, three-course prix fixe menu at Michael Mina’s Stonehill Tavern restaurant.

The budget menu is available Wednesday-Sunday (every night that the restaurant itself is open), and each night features a simple, hearty main course like Wednesday’s fish and chips, Thursday’s Kobe steak frites with roasted baby carrots, Friday’s cedar-plank salmon with potatoes and bacon vinaigrette, and Saturday’s roast prime rib with twice-baked potato.

New York: St. Regis Toasts the Anniversary of the Bloody Mary

JetSetCD — 2008-12-01T12:08:20-05:00

Put down that Red Bull and celebrate today, a landmark date for both cocktail enthusiasts and brunch boozers, as the NY Post points out that it's the 75th Anniversary of the Bloody Mary cocktail. Now for a tall, cool glass of history: the Bloody Mary was originally invented by bartender Fernand Petiot at Harry's Bar in Paris in the late 1920s, then perfected with the addition of Tabasco when Fernand headed up King Cole Bar at New York's St. Regis Hotel shortly after the repeal of prohibition.

Celeb chef Alain Ducasse may be a suave Frenchman, but he is so en vogue with the American political landscape. That's right, he's bringing his own recipe for change to Washington (straight from a pundit's talking points!).

His latest fancypants restaurant, Adour, opens shop today at D.C.'s swank St. Regis hotel, a veritable Washington outsider setting aim to shake up the scene just two blocks north of the White House.

The Palazzo Condo tower, which is currently being built in between The Venetian and The Palazzo hotel towers has now been officially named.

And.. Drumroll please... It's going to be the St Regis Residences at the Venetian Palazzo Las Vegas!

The project has been under construction since March, but just this week it was announced that it would end up being a St Regis. It's due to have 398 residences (some fully furnished even!) and they are expecting sales to reach over 2 billion dollars. Sputtering economy be damned!
