Choose 1 salad + 2 entrées + 1 vegetable + 1 starch

Moving forward all buffets will feature a raised decorative platform in front of all food items along with a 3’ separator in between the station and the guest to allow proper separation to all prepared foods. Each guest will be allowed through the buffet line, properly spaced out from the guest in front and behind them, while our team of Culinary staff will have access to the dinner plates and hand plate each piece of the buffet dinner offerings for each guest from the opposite side of the buffet. At the end of the buffet our staff will place the plate on a bar height platform for the guest to take back to their table.
