I went there for dinner. I had a little slab of lasagna, a scoop of chocolate ice cream, and three pieces of dry bread. At the end of the day it was over $60. The lasagna was salty and had virtually no meat. The club is a beautiful space. This comment is only focused on the food I had that night. Lasagna is really not that hard to make, your team should investigate different recipes and learn how to serve bread that hasn’t been sitting out and is dry as the desert.
