Eva Longoria Honored for Business Success

Getting all prettied up for a Sin City soiree, Eva Longoria was on-hand at the Latin Chamber Of Commerce’s 35th Installation Celebration in Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday night (February 20).

Decked out in a shimmering silver frock, the “Desperate Housewives” beauty was presented with the Distinguished Business Leadership Award at the annual fete.

As an entrepreneur and owner of two new and successful CityCenter ventures, Beso Steakhouse and Eve nightclub, Longoria also played host at the extravagant ceremony.

In addition, the city of Las Vegas and Clark county proudly declared February 20th as “Eva Longoria Parker Day.”

Eva Longoria-Parker: ‘I’m a Big Eater’

eva-eaterEva Longoria-Parker has to watch what she eats like all the other celebs out there, but that doesn’t stop her from enjoying some gut-busting Mexican dishes every now and then.

She said: “I am a big eater, but I do watch what I eat. I love to cook and just love Mexican food. It’s my weakness and any red meat, I just love it. So I’d say Mexican food is my secret indulgence. I also love New York pizza and I just love Indian cuisine — the spicier the better.”

The 34-year-old actress, who is married to her basketball player Tony Parker, owns Mexican eatery Beso in Hollywood and has another restaurant in Las Vegas.

Eva also revealed she doesn’t do a lot of exercise to retain her sexy trim physique. She added: “It’s mostly weight training or kick boxing. I have this amazing high for adrenaline. It agrees with me. Your body is a vehicle and you have to take care of that vehicle.”
