The piece de resistance will be the Oct. 28 Masters Dinner, Auction and Celebration at the Aladdin Resort & Casino, where chefs and sommeliers will prepare a one-of-a-kind gastronomic experience. Also, a live auction will benefit public television’s KLVX-TV, Channel 10.

“Just as other culinary and wine destinations throughout the country recognize and celebrate their talents and bounty, so will Las Vegas,” says Virginia Thompson, principal of Las Vegas Odyssey.

Thompson, Mark V. Martino and Debra Heiser created Las Vegas Odyssey, the company orchestrating the event with Archie McLaren, founder of California’s famed Central Coast Wine Classic.
