This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

Steakhouse to exude Vegas vibe
By Donna Goodison, Boston HeraldMcClatchy-Tribune Regional News

Apr. 4--Restaurateur Lou Carrier promises to light up Newton with a little Vegas when he opens Bokx 109, an upscale steakhouse at the new Hotel Indigo in June.

Sin City touches include a swank $4.5 million-plus neo-traditional build-out, what's promised to be a killer Klipsch sound system to set the atmospherics, a pool scene with cabanas and fire pits, and guest appearances by rock-'n'-rollers and other celebs who like to dabble in the kitchen.

Interactive dining is key to his plans. A six-seat chef's table with an eight-burner cook-top and ovens will be front and center in the dining room. In addition to demonstrations, the likes of Twisted Sister's Dee Snider, KC from KC and the Sunshine Band, Sammy Hagar, Mark McGrath of Sugar Ray, Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Joan Jett will cook alongside Percoco, formerly executive chef at the Loews Hotel in Vegas.
