Seafood in the Mountains

So this one is for my hometown folks or anyone who happens to visit Park City, UT. Park City is very well known its skiing, movie festivals and great hiking. Hidden in a resort is a very fancy buffet that most might not know of. "Seafood Buffet" is a sitting style buffet that is both self serve and portioned servings located at the "Deer Valley" resort. The great part about eating at this buffet is they are focused on flavors. They only give you a small portion and separate it from other foods on your plate. That way you can eat each section and appreciate what each has to offer. On the flip side there is a full salad and cold (Garde Manger) section that you are free to do as you please.
The over all menu of the restaurant changes over time so every time i have been there the food changes. You have a range from salad, soups, hot-cut meats, desserts and much much more. Usually they provide a unique dish such as alligator or "odd" food items such as that. Personally i think it is a big step in what we need as to explore what food can give us. Too many buffets use the same items and use comfort foods to please the customer.
The hitter of this buffet is the price and timing to get it when it is open. The cost is about $60 a person which if you have a large group can prove to be very expensive. Due to the prime location and how high class the chefs are it does seem sensible. With all the seafood you can eat such as king crab, clams, mussels, assorted dishes with fish and more. Keep in mind Utah doesn't have a ocean near so all of the seafood has to be delivered from far distances which can rack up the price. Also a thing about this buffet is it is seasonal, only open selected times of the year but if you willing to try some exellent buffet food i would highly suggest this place.
