I took my in-laws there to celebrate my Father in-laws retirement.
The NY Grill has a starter and dessert buffet that is served on a long table.
At the start of the meal both my MiL and FiL returned from the buffet with starters and desserts on the same plates, it was pretty strange to see them eating profiteroles and crème brulee before the main course even arrived.

Looks as if the greatest part of this "ring of fire" eclipse can be seen in most of the pacific side of western japan up to Sendai across the pacific to Northern California and down into New Mexico in the United States. < http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:SE2012May20A.png>
