people, as each meal will be different.
* Use paper plates, cups, bowls, and silverware, as
they will be thrown out after each course.

Welcome to our Mystery Dinner. Dinner will consist
of three courses. For the first course select 6 items from the menu below, for
the second and third, select 5 items from the menu. Place the numbers that
correspond to the items you've selected, in the spaces next to the letters

We surely hope you enjoy your meal (if you can
figure out what you are ordering). Good luck!
