Menu, banquet, and event planning authority — designing multi-course and family-style menus, portion math per guest, cook-ahead timelines, plating and table serving, buffet vs plated logistics, and hosting without panic. Use whenever the user plans a dinner party, birthday, holiday table, banquet, or picnic, asks how much food for N guests, needs a day-before/day-of timeline, or wants restaurant-style plating at home.
