“It is an honor to partner with Caesars Entertainment and bring my Yan-energy to Las Vegas – exciting taste buds with diverse Pan-Asian cuisine,” said Chef Martin Yan. “My mission has always been to educate and entertain with food, so partnering with the leader in entertainment is the perfect choice!”

Appetizers include Asian Pickled Vegetables Korean Style Kimchi and Vietnamese Style; Shrimp Lettuce Cups with shrimp, water chestnuts, onions, and green onions; and M.Y.
