Complete the dramatic food critic's review of the terrible buffet.

I tried to find a decent dessert, but all of the cakes were completely burnt—every single one! Furthermore, there was absolutely no fresh fruit left on the platter; it was completely empty. I refuse to recommend this restaurant to any of my friends.

I tried to find a decent dessert, but all of the cakes were completely burnt—every single one!

The clue "every single one" tells us that 100% of the cakes were burnt, so "all" is the correct quantifier.

Furthermore, there was absolutely no fresh fruit left on the platter; it was completely empty.

The phrase "completely empty" means 0% of the fruit remained, which requires "no".

I refuse to recommend this restaurant to any of my friends.

We use "any" (not "some") in negative statements. The verb "refuse" creates a negative meaning here.
