In a town that’s constantly reinventing itself, there aren’t many restaurants that have been around for more than four decades, as has the Hush Puppy. Opened by the Ghormley family in 1975, the Southern-style eatery serves a homemade seafood gumbo, frog legs, fried alligator and “some of the finest catfish west of the Mississippi.” Old-fashioned and homey, the Hush Puppy is a welcome alternative to the swanky dining Vegas is known for. Got room for dessert after a dinner of New Orleans fried oysters, collard greens and a corn cobbette? Try Sister Rosie’s homemade sweet potato pie, made with yams and real butter, or Georgia Pecan Pie made from scratch.
