The Bedford By Martha Stewart Opens At Paris Las Vegas

This is absolutely a Carla Rea restaurant, and I can't wait to try it!

The newest restaurant on the Las Vegas strip is now open. The Bedford by Martha Stewart held its official grand opening at Paris Las Vegas. Martha Stewart herself was there to host the festivities, and she was joined by a lot of her friends, including her new best pal, Rapper Snoop Dogg.

The restaurant is modeled after her home in Bedford, New York. The Bedford is Stewart's first restaurant. The Bedford’s menu features "flavorful dishes from fresh ingredients sourced locally" (I 'd love the to feature some of our own Las Vegas agriculture). Transporting guests to "an authentic dining experience at Martha Stewart’s famed country farmhouse" The restaurant boasts French-inspired cuisine and a combination of Martha’s favorite recipes.

Some of The Bedford menu items available:

Calling all trivia lovers -- or people who like to win amazing prizes.

Every Friday, Mike and Carla are doing "Locals Trivia" for KSNV Channel 3's noon newscast!

Tom Hawley was the absolute king of Nevada trivia. Staff at Channel 3 didn't know if the trivia segment would continue after Hawley's passing in late 2021. Well, we're here to give you good news. Channel 3 has allowed us to join their family to ask you some fun questions while giving you tidbits of quirky information about the state we live in.

Oh, by the way -- did we mention you can win amazing prizes? From expanding your knowledge about out Silver State to spending some "TV time" with your fun morning show duo, Friday Trivia is a full experience for our viewers.

"The Mike & Carla Morning Show" will record this segment every Friday and the staff at Channel 3 is still, and will always be, the BEST. Their hospitality, production and comradery is what makes me -- Carla -- feel like I'm at home.

We had some fun this week -- enjoy the pictures! And don't forget: Noon news, every Friday!

You don't get to see the box Carla has to stand on in the segment, but here it is. By the way - when she was on with Dana Wagner, it was the foot-tall box!
