Hi just wanting some opinions really please.
Having many daughters 6th birthday party soon at home, there could be around 15 children coming.
I've always done party buffet and I love party food (and all the leftovers 😋) but thinking lunch boxes might just be easier.

So my question is what would you do? A buffet or lunch box and if you have a lunch box what would you put in it?

I've always done buffet but we have always had family / family friends type parties so feeding adults aswell. The party I went to that did lunch boxes had half a ham and half a cheese sandwich ( I think they must have checked no one was vegetarian as would of been contaminated ) Then crisps, Apple and a cake

Thanks for the replies.

I always make sure there's plenty of buffet food and cater for the adults as well. I think even just after your two replies I'm just going to do buffet haha I wouldn't be able to decide what goes in the lunchbox and then end up doing so much that is probably be better off doing buffet.
