Vegas Dining: Sin City secret: professional athletes love Encore's elegant Society Café.

NBA Player Nick Collinson (Oklahoma City Thunder) returned for the second day in a row to this new upscale eatery and this time brought along a friend, NBA Player Steve Novak (LA Clippers). Collinson ordered the tomato bisque to start followed by the Tagliatelle while Novak nipped into the wings and ordered Trenne as an entrée.

Andrew Bynum of the LA Lakers also seems to love this fashionably quaint café. Bynum made a second trip to the café with four guests to nibble on the crispy chicken fingers and filet, medium well, with fries.

LA Laker Derek Fisher ordered the macaroni and cheese bites for his family and friends of 15 at Society Café Encore and the Trenne pasta for himself before hitting Blush nightclub next door at Wynn.
