This month, Rí Rá Las Vegas features a Whiskey Tour of Ireland ($16), a specialty tasting of four half-ounce servings of fine whiskeys, including one from the world’s oldest distillery. Selections include: Jameson Whiskey, Bushmills Whiskey, Redbreast and Michael Collins.

In addition, the pub serves up a little slice of heaven with its Irish Pork Carvery ($17.95). Select pork loins are crusted in wholegrain mustard and herbs and then roasted until tender.
