This is something we started planning over a year ago. Music to the ears of Bill Bembenek, Pala Casino Spa and Resort CEO, who said, “We’re excited. “We’ve been hearing about thew CAVE for a while and it’s just phenomenal.” “It’s nice, nice, very nice,” said Angela Gegelys, who had trekked with hubby Ted from Menifee to the CAVE for its Friday, media opening. Serving mass quantities of gourmet dishes like escargot, octopus and duck, the 4,300-square-foot CAVE restaurant and lounge along with its 2,400-square-foot underground wine bar outdoor San Luis Rey outdoor patio restaurant and Starlight Theater entertainment venue hit the Pala scene running. With all the public relations event hoopla and ambiance one might expect from one of the West’s signature resort and gambling venues, Pala Casino Spa & Resort did the CAVE right for almost four years. Tree people were part of the grand opening festivities.
