The newest hotel on the Las Vegas Strip offers guests a taste of Asian street food through a concept inspired by Singapore’s culinary scene.

Prior to opening in the summer of 2021, Resorts World Las Vegas announced plans for “Famous Foods Street Eats,” a 24,000 square meter concept based on street vendor centers. The Singapore-based Hawker Centers are large food courts with stalls that prepare and sell a wide variety of full meals, snacks, and beverages.

“Famous Foods will take guests to an authentic Asian street vendor market – an experience never reproduced in the US,” said Andrew Li, CEO of Zouk Group, in a press release.

Right next to the resort’s casino floor, “Famous Foods” will include 16 different food stands with recognized Michelin Plate and Bib Gourmand concepts as well as Eastern and Western selections.

Famous Foods will have a 16-seat bar and a whisper bar.
