She showed it to the Thornton's (for those not aware, they are the owners) and honestly, I'm not trying to dispute the picture at all, but they claim it looks to them like a Mai-Kai catered event.

Based on what? The polynesian theme?

The bowl is the only tie to the Mai-Kai. If they (Mai-Kai) catered an event thats a 3+ hours drive away for a national press event, at a well known tourist attraction (Cypress Gardens), you'd think they'd have more specific memories of this happening.

With The Volcano being just a couple of miles away, I think its more likely that they did the catering, bowl be damned. Why else would Volcano Mom have the pics?

Hell, I'd pick the Hawaiian Inn as being the caterers before the Mai-Kai due to proximity and all the Leilanis!
