From the introduction, the four couples sat in booths numbered 1-4
left-to-right as served by waitress Melanie de Melt. By clue 1, Mike and
his wife sat in the booth between those of the Prices and the couple who
ordered East Is East as their entree selection; while by clue 6, Cheryl and
her husband had the booth between those of the couple who had Steak-Out as
their entree and the couple who shared the House Salad. If Mike and Cheryl
were husband-and-wife, the Prices would have had the Steak-Out entree--no
(clue 12). Therefore, Mike and his wife and Cheryl and her husband had the
two inside booths; and Cheryl and her husband either are the Prices or had
the East Is East main course in clue 1. If Cheryl and her husband were the
Prices, the couple who ordered East Is East would have sat in the end booth
next to Mike and his wife. Lonny and his wife chose HotPot HodgePodge for
their entree (2); since Lonny isn't Mr. Price (12), he and his wife would
have had the other end booth, next to Cheryl and her husband. By clue 6,
then, Mike and his wife would have ordered Steak-Out and Lonny and his wife
would have shared a House Salad. By elimination, Cheryl and her spouse
would have chosen The Ocean as their main course. By clue 3, the couple
who had Darkly Delicious for dessert sat in the booth between those of the
couple who shared a Waldorf Salad and the couple who picked the Caesar Salad.
The couple who had Darkly Delicious would have been Mike and his wife, who
would also have had a Chef's Salad and would then be Mr. & Mrs. Queen (8).
Cheryl's husband would be Jack (4), and Ken and his wife would have had
East Is East. By clue 10, Ken and his wife would have ordered the Chocolate
Ripple fondue for dessert--but Mike and his wife couldn't be the Stones in
clue 11. Therefore, Cheryl and her husband can't be the Prices and are the
couple in clue 1 who enjoyed East Is East. Mr. & Mrs. Price sat in the end
booth next to Mike and his wife (1). Lonny and his wife chose
HotPot HodgePodge for their entree (2); since Lonny isn't Mr. Price (12),
he and his wife had the other end booth, next to Cheryl and her husband.
By clue 6, then, Mike and his wife ordered the Steak-Out and Lonny and his
wife shared a House Salad. By elimination, Mr. & Mrs. Price chose The Ocean
as their main course. By clue 3, the couple who had Darkly Delicious for
dessert sat in the booth between those of the couple who shared a Waldorf
Salad and the couple who picked the Caesar Salad. The couple who had
Darkly Delicious must have been Mike and his wife, who then also had a
Chef's Salad and are Mr. & Mrs. Queen (8). Cheryl's husband is Ken (4),
and Jack and his wife ordered The Ocean as their meat entree. By clue 10,
Ken and Cheryl ordered Chocolate Ripple for dessert. Then Lonny is Mr.
Stone (11); by elimination, Cheryl and Ken are the Rymans. By clues 3
and 7, the Prices had a Waldorf Salad and the Rymans a Caesar Salad.
By clue 9, Diana is Mrs. Stone. Jack's wife is Beth and Mike's is Anne
(5). Jack and Beth enjoyed the S'Mores dessert fondue (13),
with the Stones choosing Berry Berry Good. Finally, The Queens sat in
booth #2 (14) with the Prices then in #1, the Rymans in #3, and the Stones
in #4. In sum, the four couples enjoyed their Fondue Night Out as follows:
- #1 -- Jack & Beth Price, Waldorf Salad, The Ocean, S'Mores
- #2 -- Mike & Anne Queen, Chef's Salad, Steak-Out, Darkly Delicious
- #3 -- Ken & Cheryl Ryman, Caesar Salad, East Is East, Chocolate Ripple
- #4 -- Lonny & Diana Stone, House Salad, HotPot HodgePodge, Berry Berry Good
