VEGAS INC coverage
A café set to open in downtown Las Vegas brings with it the namesake of an American hero and a worthy story to tell.
Dougie J’s Café will host a ribbon cutting Dec. 7, National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day. The café, created by Suni Chabrow and Jess Marchese, is named in honor of Chabrow's son, Army Spc. Douglas J. Green, who died serving in Afghanistan in 2011 when insurgents attacked his unit with a rocket-propelled grenade.
Also, a flurry of restaurants are on the way at Station Casinos properties, Hash House A Go Go plans to open a Henderson location, and a popular Mirage eatery undergoes a renovation.
