There was not enough food for 11 adults. There was not enough to do for 11 adults. He did too much and didn't let us do enough. Example, I did the canoli station and he started to put the ingredients in the bowl. He also took a dish of food home when there wasn't enough for all of us. We paid $100 per person, there should have been extra extra food for us.
