Casino addition

Sift adds sweet ingredients to the mix of food outlets at Mohegan Sun

If you've enjoyed the tasty creations at Sift Bake Shop in Mystic, as we have, then you're happy to hear that Sift has had its grand opening of another shop at Mohegan Sun Casino -- a 2,930 square-foot bakery that features a variety of artisanal breads, breakfast pastries and sweet or savory concoctions. 

Mohegan and A.T.Y Hospitality celebrated with a  ribbon cutting ceremony on Tuesday, April 8. Sift Bake Shop and A.T.Y Bar & Bonbons (check out their colorful bonbons, which are so artful that they make a great gift, too) are family-owned concepts created by Pastry Chef Adam Young and his wife, Ebbie (below).

Both venues are located at the Winter Entrance in Casino of the Earth.

Says Mohegan President and GM Jeff Hamilton. “Anyone who knows Adam [Young] knows he’s all about hospitality. He knows how to walk into a room and provide great guest service, whether it’s to a boardroom full of executives or to a guest visiting Sift. Adam is also an inspirational leader – he’s behind the line, baking and interacting with his team. ...We’re really excited to see the continued success of Sift Bake Shop and A.T.Y Bar & Bonbons, especially at our new location.”

“We are so thrilled to be the newest addition to Mohegan Sun,” said Adam Young, in a release from Mohegan Sun, where he did a chef demo during January's Sun Wine & Food Fest.
