    Casino Spotlight: Relax Like a Star

    Written by Matt Jordan, Lifestyle/Entertainment

    With the hustle and bustle of the holiday season over and the indecisive weather driving me nuts, a little earlier this month I decided to take a mini vacation away from it all for the night.

I like to eat, and on my latest trip to Tunica, Hollywood Casino’s Fairbanks Steakhouse seriously hit the spot.  My biggest shock occurred when I traveled upstairs from the casino floor and stepped in the entrance. I felt like I had completely left the casino and gone somewhere entirely different. If it had not been for the windows that overlooked the casino floor, I might have had to go back downstairs just to make sure I wasn’t in a different dimension. I was immediately greeted by the House manager, Rex Lafayette, who was beyond professional and accommodating. My servers Bryan Fernandes and Mamadou Bah, where some of the most impressive gentlemen anyone would ever want to meet. Their service was impeccable. (more…)
