Never enough MJ23 at Mohegan Sun! Arrived around noon, headed straight to MJ’s for some delicious onion soup and garlic bread smothered with blue cheese fondue. OMG!!!! We had a light lunch because we had reservations for dinner there at 5pm. (Be sure to make reservations!) It was a special birthday dinner and with waitress Mel we were in good hands as she attended to our every dining pleasure. To be sure the strip steak and asparagus were done to perfection but the best part of the experience was dessert!!!! You must have the Banana Spring Rolls!!! Strategically placed upon the creamiest vanilla ice cream, topped with whipped cream and toasted sugared almonds! Well , I’ll just end it there and leave it to you to go there and try it for yourself. Thank you MJ23 for making a birthday dinner so special!
