Every year, at just about this time, we like to go to go to the Sunday Champagne Brunch at Todd English's Tuscany at Mohegan Sun Casino. They do a great job, it is well attended so things are refreshed quickly. Today was the day.
Some folks like to dine out by the falls, but we find the sound of the crashing water makes it impossible to converse without yelling at each other, so we always go inside.
The oysters are freshly shucked and kept cold. My only complaint is that they are not freed from the bottom shell. I am sure that is to keep them from sliding off onto the ice when patrons go after them with the tongs and a little knife works sets that straight.
The eggs benedict were small and tasty and I added a petite beef fillet on a bed of herbed spinach.
I finished off with a lobster omelet, some smoked salmon on a little croissant with a vegetable compote salad. I was surprised at how good the salmon and the crispy croissant combination was with a bit of cream cheese..
I did more looking than eating when it came to dessert.
