Description

Tri-fold menu from Mohegan Territory, a restaurant/diner that was located in the Mohegan Sun Casino from its opening in 1996 until the mid-to-late 2000s. Subtitled "A New England Kitchen", offerings included appetizers, sandwiches, salads, egg dishes, specialties, burgers, and desserts. The menu also includes a list of specialty cocktails and daily specials in addition to an extensive list of local beer and wine offerings. The menu is printed on a stylized version of Nicolaes Visscher's 1656 map of North America entitled "Novi Belgii Novæque Angliæ nec non partis Virginiæ tabula". The back side of the men contains a statement explaining the restaurant's ceiling murals and detailing the significance of the constellations Ursa Major and Ursa Minor to the Mohegan people.
