place wherein food or beverages are dispensed primarily by vending
machines shall not constitute a place for dining.

   (c) A supervised room, as defined by regulation, that is
physically separated from any gambling area and used primarily for
the purpose of entertainment or recreation.
   Any area of a gambling establishment to which a person under the
age of 21 years may have access under this subdivision shall have an
entrance that shall not require the entrants to enter upon or pass
through the gambling floor.  All persons under the age of 21 years
shall be restricted to the entrance specified in this subdivision.
