Penn Entertainment Inc. on Wednesday said Emeril Lagasse will open a New Orleans favorite, Meril, at the valley’s southernmost resort when the $206 million project opens months ahead of schedule.

The early opening will enable the Henderson casino-hotel to host guests for three major events, the National Finals Rodeo, New Year’s Eve and CES. Under Penn’s original schedule, the new tower was to open months later.

The M tower expansion is the second of four major projects undertaken nationwide by Wyomissing, Pennsylvania-based Penn.
