Ahi tuna bites

One of several savory snacks that are brought to the table as a sharable item (bonus on top of the buffet).

Buttermilk pancakes.

The pancakes with a goblet of syrup are a treasure.

Cherry and vanilla ice cream.

There are several stations set up during the buffets, including for eggs, donuts, and ice cream made in-house. Terrific way to end the meal.
