Optimistic proclamations of an enlarged role with <strong>MGM Resorts International<\/strong> notwithstanding, actress-<em>cum<\/em>-restaurateur <strong>Eva Longoria<\/strong>&#8216;s troubled <strong>Beso<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lasvegassun.com\/news\/2011\/jan\/12\/legal-battle-heats-over-finances-eva-longorias-bes\/\" target=\"_blank\">was recently facing eviction<\/a> from <strong>Crystals<\/strong>. The litigation surrounding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lasvegasadvisor.com\/referenceguide-diningdetail.cfm?DiningID=1146\" target=\"_self\">Beso<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lasvegasadvisor.com\/referenceguide-nightspotdetail.cfm?NightspotID=966&amp;type=Nightclub&amp;itemname=EVE Nightclub\" target=\"_self\">Eve<\/a> is already super-ugly. Among the many accusations of dodgy activities is the incorporation of <strong>Beso Management LLC<\/strong> on Jan. 4, apparently for the express purpose of filing Chapter 11, which occurred two days later. Even if every allegation made by Mrs. Parker and partner <strong>Jonas Lawrence<\/strong> is true, it only reinforces the initial impression that they&#8217;ve not been minding the store, leading to their current loss of face. Besides, if you&#8217;re so far behind in your rent that a mall as challenged as Crystals is threatening eviction, Beso&#8217;s situation must be desperate indeed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Enviro-friendly, too.
