Critique my housewarming offerings

5 replies

Organised a housewarming for this weekend coming and just thinking about food for it... going to be nibbles and drinks as it's 2-5pm so not full meals but I expect people will want to graze on stuff. About 30 people. Does this sound like things you'd like to see laid out and will it be enough? Anything else I should add/leave off? I'm in Oz so it'll be warm, hence not having hot things. Plus we're veggie, hence lack of sausage rolls etc. Here's my list of food and drinks, please imagine you were coming and critique... Smile

FOOD
Oozy cheese
Hard cheese
Crackers
Grapes
Cherries
Breadsticks
Dips
Bowl of crisps
Olives
Bowl of nuts - savoury and sweet
Mince pies
Rocky road chunks
Slices of Christmas fruit cake

DRINKS
Beer
Red/white wine
Pimms in a big jug with fruit
Iced tea in a jug
Soft drinks: OJ/naice lemonade/spiced gingerbeer/Appletiser (may be quite a few people driving)

I think it looks good but would possibly add in nice bread along with the crackers.

Nice crusty bread definitely a good idea for dip and cheese 👍🏻 will add to the list

If you're doing dips I'd have some crudités as well as breadsticks just because they add some colour to the table! Maybe a mushroom or bean pate in case you have any cheese haters.

I would have done a couple of salads, perhaps a crunchy salad as well as a wild rice salad & jazzed up the dips if not headed that way.
