I want to thank all of you that you traveled to Frankfurt that you took the time to discuss and to honor Danielle after five years of the SSM working very very hard and successfully. I want to thank you for the contribution to the special event. I would like to thank Petra Senkowicz. Where is Petra? Petra, please stand up so that everybody, she is not only our secretary general of the supervisory board but she organized with her team together this event and I know that there's a lot of work linked to it and that's why I think it is good to thank her too. Danielle, now it is time for me to thank you on behalf of the SSM, on behalf of the staff and for sure for me personally too for the great five years we had together. I mean it has been really a remarkable endeavor I think for both of us. It will be quite difficult for me to go to the office and not being able to discuss with you. You were there literally every hour, 24 hours, seven days, the last five years. You cannot imagine talking about work ethics, you cannot imagine how quick you get an answer from Danielle per email when you ask a question. I know that some governors are nodding too because we had all kinds of questions coming up and it was remarkable how you dealt with all the topics being raised in what a kind of quick fashion and decisive fashion. You have been and you will be always the first chair of the SSM, of European banking supervision and that is a remarkable thing in itself. You have a unique role, you fill it up, you will be in the financial history books. I think this is an achievement and an accomplishment you can be proud of but I think what you can be most proud of is that you characterize what a good European should be because you always, you always fight for the European idea here. I have never seen anybody who is more European thinking than you. With your passion for Europe and your expertise as a banking supervisor, you were the perfect cast for this role. I already said that yesterday evening when we had supervisor bought a dinner farewell and you filled this role perfectly, very well. You almost single-handedly started the SSM. I do know that we had about three or four people in the SSM when you started in December. You were the one shaping the culture, shaping the supervisor approach, shaping our reputation and I think you are the basis for why we are now so credible in banking supervision, why we are so highly respected as a supervisor authority. You had to make the banks safer and sounder. We still have work to do but I'm pretty sure as a supervisor you will always have work to do. There is never an end to it.  And I always felt very comfortable too when we had the same opinion about a difficult issue. And we were lucky that I think in 98% we had the same opinion. So there were not often a difference there. So even you will be now leaving your post, we will continue in your spirit. I think that is the best, what you can expect from us and that you have to expect from us and I would like to thank you again on behalf of the staff, on behalf of the senior management, on behalf of myself for the great years and for the dedication and commitment you brought to this project. Many thanks. Me too.


What's going on everybody it's the Fung Brothers and we are back at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas for another installment of 20 bites. This time we are here specifically for March May Ham. Not only are we trying the best dishes from Major Domo, Moon Palace and Black Tab. We are going to be having four sips from the top cocktails here at Electra. Let's get it going. We're inside Electra. This is the best place in Vegas to catch March May Ham in sports in general. I mean behind us we have a 40 foot screen and over here we have a bar that's equipped with one of the largest mezcal collections in all of Las Vegas. Let's get on to our first dish. Black Tab brought to Las Vegas a taste of New York City. Modeled after the luncheonets of lower Manhattan in the 80s and 90s, Black Tab sues a hip millennial urban vibe. All right so our first dish from Black Tab are these Mexican hot sauce wings. We got spicy hot sauce, blue cheese crumble, some scallions drizzled on top and then of course you have the blue cheese dress. Blue cheese on blue cheese. Nothing goes better than wings in sports. I think chicken wings are the number one food to eat while watching sports because there's no bad bite. We'll just pick it up. Boom. No luck. Boom. All right so our first entree from Black Tab. We got the Texan burger. Prime patty, bacon, aged cheddar, crispy onion ring, sweet barbecue sauce. Wow from high up. Nothing but net. With everything going on that aged cheddar is really cutting through man. Hey it's all about rings, onion rings, championship rings. The next burger up is the Greg Norman burger named after the famous legendary Australian golfer. Here we have a half pound wagyu beef burger. You have arugula. You have a house made buttermilk dill sauce. That is a whole in one between the arugula, the blue cheese and the buttermilk dill. That was a triple combo. For dessert we have the vegan black and white cake shake. This is just as good as your chocolate crazy shake but it's vegan. Everything is vegan from the top down from the chocolate chips to the chocolate syrup to the whipped cream to the cake. What do you think? That's good.  You guys are vegan or if you guys are lactose intolerant allergic to any sort of dairy products this is the one for you. This is not a rookie milkshake straight to the pros. Moon Palace is a new spot from Chef David Chang located just across his other spot major domo. It's a casual place to grab a bite with a compact menu of tasties, hot chips and half dibs. Guests can take their food to go or grab a seat at one of the 20 stools along a countertop with a view of the kitchen or check out the action of the palazzo. Starting off at David Chang's Moon Palace we have the double tasting. This is going to be a chuck beef patty on a king's Hawaiian roll American cheese sprinkled with a little bit of that special momofuku savory salt. Immediately there's the momofuku savory salt. It just hits you real quick. I can actually taste how this is a part chuck and part brisket patty. Let's bring on the next one. And now we have a secret menu item. This is the Luna style double. A secret? This is like your double tasting except now packed with your special Luna sauce and pickles. Wow it is not your typical special sauce they've got sriracha and even fish sauce. That's where that umami is coming from. Next up for Moon Palace we've got the hot chips. You can either get them salted or with honey butter powder. These are the most unique chips I've ever had because some of them are kind of floppy and chewy and then the others are really crispy and they do that on purpose and I think that just makes it unique. This is like the perfect snack while watching a game. You knew David Chang wasn't going to just do any regular chips. Let's bring on dessert. For dessert we've got the half dip. This is a reinvented childhood classic. Oh yeah two fluffy molasses pancakes marshmallow fluff inside half dipped in chocolate. Wow I love biting it right on the border with the chocolate dip and the no dip side. I think this half dip really sums up Moon Palace's mission really well. They take things that you're super visually familiar with but they take it to a whole nother place that you did not see coming. Major Domo Meat and Fish is a modern steakhouse from chef David Chang. Built on the DNA of its sister restaurant in LA it pulls from a diverse range of food traditions inspired by the energy of Las Vegas. A major domo is a person who makes arrangements or takes charge for another. In that spirit they aim to provide a lively and engaging experience for their guests. First item at Major Domo we are looking at the bing in foie gras combination. That is something I've never seen before. David you're gonna have a bed of ricotta cheese with your seasonal cranberry jam and on top the kicker they got shaved foie gras snow on top. That's like a peanut butter jelly sandwich fit for a hall of famer. That has a world of flavors right there everything from tart to sweet to salty savory on to the next plate. So for our first entree from Major Domo we got the maffoldine. Here's the special thing about this pasta it's got a trio of crabs it's got dungeness crab blue crab and crab miso thrown in with ginger. Oh wow structurally that's like a traditional Italian pasta but that soul is Asian. Wow the noodles are cooked so perfectly they're al dente. You're an al dente kind of guy. And for our main course here at Major Domo we have the whole plate beef short rib like wow wow. This is a hall of famed short rib right here. They have the short rib rice they've cooked that in beef fat and wasabi oil. That combined a lot of my favorite aspects of Korean barbecue in with southern barbecue. And finally we have rice pudding for dessert but this is not any ordinary rice pudding Andrew this has been domified. You have a white chocolate Japanese California grown rice pudding here you have a side of accoutrements everything ranging from pistachios to crepe batter to blood oranges. So good rice pudding is such an unassuming dish but when you get one of the monster titans of the food world David Chang to get his hands on it it turns into something completely different. Want the energy of the best Las Vegas nightclubs with the feel of a local spot you'll find all that and more at Electra cocktail club located in the heart of the Palazzo Casino if you're eager to put your finger on the pulse of the newest Vegas nightlife look no further. Focusing on rum drinks tequila and agricoles Electra has one of the largest mezcal collections in Las Vegas. David we're here at Electra you know we gotta try some of their greatest cocktails here our first one is the Unicorn Tears. Unicorn Tears. Gin, Fino Cherries, Fresh Lime, Pineapple and a little bit of Absinthe at the end. For me that Absinthe comes in at the end and kind of kicks you it's a field goal. I was gonna say I'll you because it takes you here and then boom. Andrew the next drink up is penicillin. The penicillin this is Electra's playful version on Sam Ross's famous penicillin. Smoky Scotch, Fresh Lemon, Ginger and Honey. That's cold. That's a second round pick but it really turned out to be an all-star. Our third cocktail here at Electra is the Age of Aquarius. You got passion fruit, you got mezcal, you've got compari, you got honey Scotch. Fresh lime. Smoky. That is a behind-the-back pass. I was thinking specifically a pistol peat move yes because it's kind of like a little old school. You guys in the disgruntled Mai Tai they've got two rums, Apparall, Fresh Lime, Curacao, Orijat and Underberg. This Mai Tai is more disgruntled than Bobby Knight. The basketball play that comes to mind when I have the disgruntled Mai Tai is the Give and Go. I'm thinking of a playground foul. That's what you do when you're disgruntled. I gotta tell you the diversity of offerings here under one roof is incredible. There really is a world of options.


Now the U.S. has no connection with the recent outbreak of monkeypox in Nigeria. The American Embassy in the country has made this clear. It explained that the U.S. government has continued to support Nigerian health authorities with technical assistance and funding to tackle disease outbreaks such as COVID-19 and monkeypox among others. According to the Embassy, the sponsors of such claims have also called on the World Health Organization to investigate.
