Las Vegas is full of surprises, and today’s guest, Christina Dylag, is one of them. She’s the owner of Velveteen Rabbit, a uniquely charming bar and community hub in the city’s vibrant Arts District. Christina is also the author of “Tiny Little Boxes: How to Cope with Existential Dread by Way of Ice Cream and Other Means”—a title that’s as intriguing as the book itself.Christina joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about why she opened Velveteen Rabbit, the philosophy behind her book, and how the Arts District is fostering creativity in the food and beverage space. They also explore the spiritual side of Las Vegas, the inspiration behind her craft cocktails (and mocktails), and, of course, the beloved children’s book that gave her bar its name.Thank you to Las Vegas for supporting our show.
