DH and I are invited to a dinner party on Friday. The dinner is work-related and the host will be my colleague in two weeks' time when I start a new job, so not close friends. There will be 16 of us, and the invitation specifies that it will be a buffet/cold meats.
I was thinking I could take a dish for the buffet. I would take home-made gravadlax, as that requires no work at all from the hosts -it would be all cut and plated and ready to eat and delicious
DH thinks it's weird to take a dish to a dinner party. If you were the host, would you be pleased or offended? Any views on the etiquette?
We will be taking wine and flowers too, natch :)
