Giada Has a New Opening Date for Her First Restaurant

Now pint-sized Food Network star Giada De Laurentiis has a new opening date for her first restaurant, going into the second floor at The Cromwell. You can now book reservations for Giada starting at 7:30 p.m. June 3 on OpenTable.

The Las Vegas Sun reports that previews kick off on May 28.

Apparently the restaurant and kitchen "will be identical in quality and cost to the prestigious three-star Restaurant Guy Savoy at Caesars Palace." Lofty expectations. Keep in mind, this three-meal restaurant is the only place to dine at The Cromwell, a boutique hotel that will be anchored by Drai's beach club, nightclub and after-hours by Memorial Day weekend.

Staff there is steadily going through a 600-page training manual for service and the kitchen.

Giada marks the first restaurant from De Laurentiis, who studied at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris and has worked in Los Angeles at restaurants such as Spago.
