“As Single As You Wanna Be” Saturdays at Hostile Grape

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

Many of you attended, and many more of you may have seen or heard about our “As Single As I Wanna Be” party for this past Valentine’s Day at M Resort. It was held down in our wine bar, Hostile Grape, which has one of the coolest, sexiest atmospheres of any venue in Las Vegas. We decided to give ladies who
HG-Val-Red-Heels2blogshowed up in their sexiest red stilettos a free bottle of wine and wow did that party turn into a hit! With a $20 cover getting you two specialty cocktails or a $20 wine card (and in the door too by the way) the party offered a really good time and great value for the money. 

We received a ton of comments about how there weren’t any good singles nights and events here in Las Vegas and could we, maybe, possibly, pretty please have more of these parties at Hostile Grape? Well the “pretty pleases” have been answered.

Recap: Grey’s Anatomy Viewing Party

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

Last Thursday marked the season six premiere episode of Grey’s Anatomy. As you know from our prior post, we held a Grey’s Anatomy viewing party inside the  Ravello Lounge.  Thank you to everyone who came! We had a great crowd of Grey’s fans and MIX 94.1 listeners join us for the fun and stay for the two hour show, which was filled with drama that only Grey’s Anatomy can provide.

Our host JC from MIX 94.1 tested everyone’s knowledge with Grey’s trivia and gave away some great prizes including DVDs and t-shirts – one lucky winner took home an M Resort hotel and dinner package.   

The menu for the evening included specialty drinks named for popular characters, including the Fizzy Izzie Champagne Cocktail, McDreamy’s Chocolate Martini, the Dirty Sexy McSteamy Martini and Meredith’s Seriously Sake Martini.  To satisfy everyone’s sweet tooth, our Executive Pastry Chef, Jean-Claude Canestrier created over 800 chocolate confections for the party and guests indulged in the delicious truffles and chocolate covered fruit – the bananas on the left were a crowd favorite. 

Our bartenders even got into the Grey’s theme and were decked out in surgical scrubs!

If you were able to make it, leave a comment and let us know what you thought about our event.  We’d love to hear from you.

Grey’s Anatomy Returns… to Ravello Lounge!

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

If you’re a fan of the show, then you’re counting down the hours until the season six premiere episode of Grey’s Anatomy airs this Thursday. The M team has some dedicated Grey’s followers too, and this year, our resort has teamed up with Channel 13 and JC from MIX 94.1 to host the ultimate viewing party inside the Ravello Lounge. We considered a handful of locations for this event, but we ultimately decided on Ravello – it’s the perfect place to watch great entertainment, whether it’s live music, pro football or the Grey’s Anatomy season premiere! With so much going on in Ravello this fall, we’d like to take this opportunity to shed a little light on our favorite lounge.    

Ravello Lounge was named after the Italian town, Ravello, a popular tourist destination located above the Amalfi Coast. Renowned for its beautiful surroundings and affinity for the arts, Ravello is a worldwide destination for artists, musicians and writers and served as the inspiration for our lounge here at the M.

Designed by the experts at Marnell Architecture, the Ravello Lounge provides optimal sound and stage visibility – there really isn’t a bad seat in the house! It also features plush seating, cozy booths and tables and an outdoor terrace with spectacular views of the Strip – did we mention the killer cocktail list? It’s only natural that Ravello Lounge is home to great live music and it’s all brought to you by the dedicated M Entertainment Team. Since opening, they’ve booked some amazing local talent, including Rock Daddy, performing dance and rock hits this Tuesday through Sunday night. If you’re coming to the Grey’s party, stick around after the show and check them out.

You might wonder how Ravello manages to double as a live music venue and viewing party location.  The secret is the giant projection screen that comes down from the ceiling with the push of a button. Couple this with the video wall, multiple TV’s at the bar and two additional flat screens on the stage and there you have it.  The unique set-up allows us to host viewing parties for Sunday and Monday night football, Grey’s Anatomy and just about anything else we might want to show.  Since we’re a new property, we’re just starting to tap into all the possibilities our lounge offers and we assure you, there’s more to come. 

If you’re interested in attending our Grey’s Anatomy Viewing Party, head to our website to RSVP and check back on Friday for photos from the big event.

JC’s Birthday at the Hostile Grape

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

bday-crowd2

Every Wednesday from 6-8 pm, JC Fernandez of MIX 94.1 hosts our weekly “Escape to the Grape” wine tastings. JC does an awesome job and when we discovered his birthday was on Monday, we couldn’t resist incorporating a special birthday celebration into this week’s event. It was the perfect way to honor our host and thank him for all of his hard work week in and week out.

As part of the birthday bash, our pastry chefs created a delicious sheet cake, complete with JC’s picture on top, for all of our guests to enjoy. JC’s No. 1 birthday request was an extra hour of musical entertainment by Mark B., Hostile Grape’s resident guitar player and singer and we were happy to make it happen.

JC is a popular guy and Las Vegas loves him! A great crowd came out to enjoy the wine tasting and wish JC a happy birthday. The man of the evening also chose each of the four featured wine selections for the tasting. JC is a fan of full-bodied red wines and his picks received two thumbs up and many compliments from our guests! 

Coming up next Wednesday, August 26 – Escape to the Grape for the Battle of the Wines. Join us from 6-8 pm for special red and white wine flights and sample four featured selections for just $15.
