“ There is no doubt that this is a perfect match of one of America’s great Chefs and one of America’s most amazing entertainment destinations,” added Mitchell Etess, President and Chief Executive Officer for Mohegan Sun. “We are extremely excited to have Bar Americain as part of our culinary roster, and are proud that Bobby Flay has chosen Mohegan Sun to be the site of his first fine dining venture in the New England market,” says Lynn Malerba, Chairwoman for the Mohegan Tribe. Today, Bar Americain continues to be an essential mainstay in Manhattan’s dining landscape.

This is Bobby’s 10th restaurant in operation and his second Bar Americain the first opened in New York City in March of 2005, receiving rave reviews including two-stars from The New York Times. “Here I’ll celebrate the vast culinary traditions found in the US while also featuring dishes that showcase the wealth of ingredients and traditions of New England and, given our location, that of the Native American culture.” “I’m thrilled to introduce Bar Americain to Mohegan Sun,” says Bobby. His decidedly American menu is mirrored by the energetic fast pace of the time-honored European brasserie. Conveniently located off the hotel lobby, the 276-seat restaurant celebrates America’s diverse culinary heritage, inspired by Bobby’s extensive travels throughout the country. Uncasville, CT (November 18, 2009) – Bobby Flay, celebrated chef, restaurateur, television personality and cookbook author, opens Bar Americain today at Mohegan Sun.
