We were in Las Vegas for an International Food Wine and Travel Writers Association driving tours of ireland conference at The Palazzo/The driving tours of ireland Venetian. Whether a person is in Las Vegas for a conference, for the shows, restaurants, glitz or gambling, the city cannot be truly experienced without a lot of walking.
For three days we lived at The Palazzo/The Venetian, sister casino-hotel-convention facilities. Both our motorhome and towed car could have stayed in the suite with us, with room to spare. In addition to attending seminars, food demonstrations and a wine symposium, we toured over 60,000 square feet of the facility's banquet/conference kitchen with Executive Chef Dubreuil, sipped special conference cocktails, indulged in breakfasts, lunches, dinners and brunch driving tours of ireland and sampled a $750 cupcake. Occasionally, we even slipped a twenty-dollar bill into a slot machine.
Like everyone visiting Las Vegas we squeezed as much as we could into those three precious days by constantly walking. On day four we decided to give our feet a treat. We left the conference/casino level for the third floor, where Nikki Pishotti, Marketing and PR Manager, enthusiastically described The Canyon Ranch SpaClub facilities. We opted for "Healthy on your Feet" and "Instant Relief" massages driving tours of ireland followed by a series of dry, steam and herbal-infused saunas, a cool Arctic Mist igloo, a Salt Grotto and Wave Room. We showered, we lotioned, we bundled up in warm towels and robes and we relaxed in heated lounge chairs beside the swirling hydro spa. Our feet made promises to carry us forever if only we would treat them this well more often.
Our final food demonstration at the conference was at The Canyon Ranch SpaClub Grill, driving tours of ireland where the menu emphasizes items made with fresh vegetables driving tours of ireland and fruit, legumes and whole grains, lean proteins and healthy fats. Chef James Boyer demonstrated a salad that included the ancient Mayan grain, quinoa. Our salad is just as healthy as his and even easier to make.
Rinse the quinoa (keenwa) thoroughly in cold water. Pour into a fine mesh strainer. Cook the quinoa according to package instructions. Fluff the cooked grain with a fork. Place in a bowl and set in the refrigerator to cool.
