Nearly every casino on the Las Vegas Strip had a buffet before the region was forced to close. While the Strip has moved upscale over the last two decades, the AYCE buffet has survived. The coronavirus, however, will likely result in permanent changes to the eateries.
“It’s one of the things people want to do,” said Amanda Belarmino, an assistant professor at UNLV’s William F. Harrah College of Hospitality. “Gambling, going to the buffet. It’s all part of the experience.”
Belarmino added that the new buffet model at Wynn will help the resort better learn about guest preferences when it comes to food, which could result in better cost controls.
