• Planet Hollywood-based Pin-Up’s pricey pizza
• Resorts World redefines ramen
• Eat no more

A slice of plain cheese at Planet Hollywood’s Pin-Up Pizza will now set you back $12.99, according to its latest menu. But if you want to save $23.93, just order an entire pie for only $79.99.

“Could go to Capital Grille and get a 16oz balsamic reduction aged ribeye for less then what these clowns want for a cheese pizza,” commented X user @BosSportsBros beneath @seventensuited’s March 16 post and the two dozen variations on “wtf?” that followed it.

They’re essentially begging people not to eat here,” added @marquel65. “I wish folks would cooperate.”

We found @slurpeeee9 to have offered the best explanation for how Pin-Up has gotten away with its pricing.

“We were drunk and there wasn’t much that was cheaper or quicker nearby,” he wrote. “At the moment, that was the best slice ever.”

In a not-unrelated story, a new survey by the real-estate company Clever revealed that Las Vegas pizza is the most expensive in the country compared to average residential income. According to the data, buying one large pepperoni pizza and one large cheese pizza per week costs a family 3.56% of the median Vegas household income, much higher than the national average of 2.51%.

Tiramisoy Sauce?

PastaRamen, which fuses Japanese and Italian cuisines, will open for a one-month pop-up at Resorts World on May 15. The concept was created by executive chef Robbie Felice during the pandemic shutdown.

Having already launched the New Jersey Italian eateries Viaggio Ristorante and Osteria Crescendo, Felice stumbled upon wafu-Italian cuisine, a style that had been evolving in Japan for decades. “Wafu” means “Japanese-style,” and in this context, it refers to Italian dishes reinterpreted with Japanese ingredients and techniques, like ramen-inspired pasta or gyoza with Italian flavors.

Felice began PastaRamen as an invite-only experience, expanding it to pop-ups in LA, New York, Miami, and Seattle before opening a brick-and-mortar location in Montclair, New Jersey in 2023.

Felice, who started his career as a sous chef at B&B Ristorante at The Venetian, will present the new pop-up in collaboration with chef-partner Nicole Brisson of Resorts World’s Brezza.

Dining Ins & Outs

Revered chef Natalie Young quietly closed Eat on March 22, a story broken by City Cast Las Vegas. Her restaurant began in 2012 downtown with seed money from late Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh. Young has opened a new place nearby, though. Echo Taste & Sound, on South Main Street in the Arts District, focuses on small plates.
