The cache is NOT located at the posted coordinates. They say that it isn't always pretty to see how the sausage gets made--keep that in mind as you solve this puzzle.

1. Five chefs prepared five sausage dishes with five sauces and five pastas at five restaurants for five diners who had five different-sized groups at their tables, each of which had a different word stitched into its tablecloth.
2. Chef Diano prepared either the spinach feta sausage or the meal brought to Jackie.
3. Chef Carlo prepared the penne at Vesuvio.
4. Andouille and the meal served on the tablecloth marked "WATER" were different dishes; one had marinara sauce and the other was brought to the table for three.
5. A dish of ziti with pesto was set on a tablecloth that had the word "THE" stitched into it.
6. Of Chef Bianca and the chef who prepared andouille, one made the fra diavolo sauce and the other worked at Chez Quis.
7. The five diners were Izzy, the one fed by Chef Elia, the one who dined at Vesuvio, the one who got cotechino sausage, and the one who got chicken apple sausage.
8. The tablecloth with "GO" stitched into it received Chef Carlo's meal.
9. Chef Andrea made either the penne or the spaghetti.
10. Gussie's tablecloth had "LET" stitched into it.
11. There were more people at the table whose tablecloth had "BY" stitched into it than dined at Gusteau's.
12. The penne came with alfredo sauce and was not served to Gussie.
13. The spaghetti and the marinara sauce dish were two different meals, one served to the table for two and the other served at Dorsia.
14. The five chefs were Chef Diano, the one who cooked fettuccine, the one who worked at Dorsia, the one who prepped for a table of three, and the one who used spinach feta sausage.
15. The five sauces were carbonara, the one prepared by Chef Elia, the one brought to table for six, the one served at Fratelli's, and the one that accompanied spinach feta sausage.
16. There were more people at Hal's table than where the farfalle was served.
17. Spaghetti was brought to the table for seven.
18. Jackie dined with exactly one other person on a tablecloth that had "WATER" stitched into it.
19. The fra diavolo sauce went with either the chicken apple sausage or the Italian sausage.
20. Frances dined alone.

Well done if you have solved the logic puzzle! You will find the geocache at N 38° 4A.BCD' W 121° 3E.FGH', where you can obtain the missing digits via some simple arithmetic using the number of people at the table (1, 2, 3, 6, or 7) for each of these attributes:
A = THE + Dorsia - alfredo
B = cotechino + Gusteau's - Chef Andrea
C = Chef Elia + farfalle - WATER
D = carbonara + Gussie - fra diavolo

E = fettuccine + andouille - BY
F = Hal + Chef Bianca - Fratelli's
G = marinara + Chez Quis - spinach feta
H = Chef Diano + Vesuvio - GO


You can validate your puzzle solution--and learn the offset information--with certitude.
