Mohegan Sun Set To Unveil New Gigantic Buffet
UNCASVILLE, CT (WCBS 880) - The Mohegan Sun casino resort poured nearly $10 million into renovating their Seasons buffet restaurant.

Zazzaro says every kind of cuisine imaginable will be served with the emphasis on New England favorites.
"Our customers sort of demanded it. They wanted to see a world class product and we're going to deliver that," he says.
Most of this food will be cooked right at the buffet from breakfast to late late dinners.
The new restaurant opens on Friday.
