March 21st 2019: Checking Out MGM Springfield, Springfield

On the way back from New York today, we decided to check out the new casino in Springfield, MGM Springfield. Pretty small and nothing fancy I would say.

We got brunch here, getting the New England Clam Chowder, Onion Rings and Hot Lobster Roll

From Jack's Lobster Shack.

Surprisingly good seafood, actually, and fresh too.

Later on, for dinner, we decided to stop by the Villa Restaurant, a casual but popular eatery in Wayland.

For food, we got the Prime Rib,

which came with a Garden Salad (Crisp iceberg and romaine lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, shredded carrots, cucumbers and croutons)

Mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables.

The prime rib was perfectly cooked and tasty, although the rest of the dishes were just so-so. I liked the Passionfruit Cheesecake we got for dessert,

although my other half thought it was way too sweet. Not a bad meal overall though.
