CULTURAL CUISINE REIGNS SUPREME AT THE BUFFET AT EXCALIBUR
New Buffet To Open December 23
A bountiful selection of small-batch comfort dishes will abound at The Buffet at Excalibur, the resort’s newly redesigned buffet opening December 23. Located on the Castle Walk near the Thunder From Down Under Showroom, the contemporary dining room will feature an interactive dessert station as well as six food stations serving a variety of cultural cuisine including American, Asian, Italian and Latin. Every Friday, The Buffet will transform into a seafood extravaganza featuring crawfish, blue crab, crab legs, sushi, peel-and-eat shrimp, lobster polenta and more. Menu items will rotate seasonally to highlight the freshest produce and ingredients, elevating The Buffet to a fresh new dining experience.
Designed by Cleo Design, The Buffet’s front façade is made from warm, wood paneling and crisp metal accents creating a bold and welcoming entrance. Upon stepping into The Buffet guests will be greeted by the venue’s focal point, the dessert station, filled with sweet treats and two interactive stations where guests can enjoy made-to-order crepes and ice cream bars hand-rolled and dipped. Vibrant graphic illustrations of fresh produce will line the walls while pops of pink, purple and white highlight each display creating an eye-catching environment. Dewdrop pendant lighting fixtures will spotlight the culinary displays illuminating each delicious dish. The dining room will seat 610 guests and can easily adapt to accommodate groups of all sizes with a variety of booths, banquettes and loose seating.
