Finally, if we’re super lucky, there’s a show at The Waiting Room. We see the show, then go to a second show at Reverb Lounge.
Please tell visitors: what’s special about Omaha?
Omaha is uniquely Omaha. A lot of folks are born here, leave, gather information and experiences, then return and try to improve our great city. That’s what I did with Dante. And I couldn’t have done that in any other market for various reasons.
Omaha also has a rich tradition of immigration. I’m a product of immigrants. I went deep into my Italian roots, traveled to Italy, and learned about the cuisine. And that’s true of more recent immigrants, who bring their cuisine – amazing food I’ve never seen before. Of course you can come to Omaha and enjoy a delicious steak. I love 801 Chophouse for a fancy steakhouse and The Drover for a casual steakhouse.
But we have so much more than that. We have secret menus at the Sichuan place (Blue & Fly), Ethiopian bread on Saddle Creek (Lalibela Ethiopian Restaurant), and a deli in the back of Asian Market with all sorts of delicious and interesting things. So come to Omaha and enjoy the steak, but try some other things we offer.
