Shaping The Vegas Culinary Scene: Elizabeth Blau’s Restaurant Revolution

Today’s guest is Elizabeth Blau, the trailblazer who helped shape Las Vegas into a world-class culinary destination and is now championing a more supportive hospitality industry for women. She talks to host Kerry Diamond about her journey from “taco girl” at a hometown watering hole to powerhouse executive. 

They discuss Elizabeth’s early years working with Sirio Maccioni of Le Cirque fame, her move to Las Vegas and her work with the Wynn family, the launch of her own company, Blau & Associates, and the achievements of the Women’s Hospitality Initiative, which she co-founded to help women advance in the ranks of restaurants and hospitality organizations.
