Has there ever been a fort on or near Ft. Apache Rd. in southwest Las Vegas? If so, what is the history of it and the area? Thanks for a reply at your convenience and keep up the great information.

I read that the Golden Gate has closed their deli to accommodate their expansion. While they are still serving the shrimp cocktail in their Du-par's restaurant 24/7, the price has been quietly raised to $2.99. My wife and I loved going downtown for this Top Ten deal. What have you heard?

Every year we go to Vegas (we stay downtown), we notice more and more emphasis on Hawaiian themes, Hawaiian food offerings, and info that caters to Hawaiian guests. When and how did that trend begin? We like it!

Anyone who has driven around the Las Vegas Valley or been a LVA subscriber for any length of time is probably at least aware of Lee’s Discount Liquor stores. This chain has been a frequent "Best of Las Vegas" winner and seems to be involved in a number of charitable events. Can you tell me a little more about the owner, Mr. Hae Un Lee, and his business interests, which I understand include Woonam Jung, a Korean restaurant located on Spring Mountain Road?

According to a readers’ poll conducted by CNNGo, an Indonesian dish named rendang was listed as being #1 of the World's 50 Most Delicious Foods. The description has piqued my interest and I would like to give it a try while in Las Vegas. Can someone at the LVA direct me to a restaurant that is serving rendang?

I'm moving to Vegas in April and there are two things I'll miss from where I live now - fish tacos and tortilla soup. I have the 2011 "Eating Las Vegas" book and don't see either listed. Could you please recommend places with the best fish tacos and tortilla soup (not necessarily from the same restaurant)? Preferably east of the Strip, but I'm willing to do longer drives if I have to.

One morning last week during a stay at the Wynn, my wife went jogging while I went for a walk. She ran around the outside of the Wynn property including the golf course three times. I walked from the Wynn down to Mandalay Bay and back. She, of course, went faster but who went farther?

I understand that there was a piece in a 1993 issue of LVA about Jean Scott’s famous 50-day stay in Vegas (with 49 nights comped). The archives only go back to 1999, though. Any way that you could re-post that article? Thanks!

Who is (or was) the Jerry in Jerry's Nugget?

In a recent forum trip report the writer saw the final performance of Shecky Green. We saw him perform many years ago at the Sands Hotel and never forgot how funny he was. It seems he lived a very colorful life in Vegas. Can you revisit some of his legendary antics and tell me more about his life? It seems I read he suffered from severe depression.
