On Friday night at Rao’s Caesars Palace, guests came together to celebrate Las Vegas Restaurant Week with “Bubbles, Burgers and Bocce,” a special event benefitting Three Square Food Bank, while raising enough money to provide more than 3,000 meals to hungry Southern Nevadans (Pictured above: Bocce Bellas and Bubbles, Burgers and Bocce party guests – Photo credit: Denise Truscello / WireImage.com DeniseTruscello.net).

Bubbles is both a nod to the popular Italian sparkling wine, Prosecco, and the restaurant’s extremely popular former host, Robert “Bubbles” Ubriaco, who passed away last February. Party-goers dined on an array of signature cuisine including Dino’s Sliders and Bruschetta, while sipping on Rao’s Prosecco and dancing to music courtesy of DJ Two Hearts.

The evening also featured a lively bocce ball tournament on Rao’s back patio overlooking the Garden of the Gods Pool Oasis and a raffle, with prizes including a complimentary stay at Caesars Palace, dinner for two at Rao’s Caesars Palace and gourmet luxury gift baskets with an assortment of Rao’s specialty food products.
