So I headed over around 5:30 and paid the $20 for the buffet. This amount included soft drinks, too.<\/p>\n<p>Except for the garlic shrimp and crab cakes, the deep fried seafood offerings (clam, oysters, calamari, shrimp) were pretty meh and tasted the same. The side dishes were pretty basic, but there was a really nice chicken Alfredo and the salad bar was splendid. The star of the show was the endless mountain of steamed crab legs. YUM. They were so good! I pretty much gave up on the other stuff and sucked and picked my way through as many crab legs as my belly could hold. It was a lot of work to get a meal out of those succulent morsels, but worth the effort.<\/p>\n<p>I had a pretty decent slice of apple pie for dessert with a really good decaf coffee. It wasn&#8217;t the best buffet I&#8217;ve been to, but I feel it was worth the entrance price.<\/p>\n<p>Next, I decided to try my hand at the penny slots, putting in $10 and cashing out at $20. So dinner cost me only $10!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since I&#8217;m paying for my RV spot, I don&#8217;t feel obliged to spend money at the casino, but I decided to check it out anyway and discovered that they offer a buffet every night.
