Last minute party, too many guests for sitting arrangements and not enough plates and cuttlery for everybody. (still living in a 1.5 rooms flat!)Panic.
It was the classic situation where I had to come out with something extremely creative, so what did I do?
Rushed to the Asian shop and bought 2 large bags of banana leaves, which I used as tablecloth.
Then served all the food on wooden platters and arranged candels and river stones all around the table : As a result I had unconsciously created the ultimate finger-food exotic buffet table!
My buffet table was so impressive that I took a picture and used it as a post-party thank you card that I have sent to all of my guests. (See picture above)
Menu was simple yet sophisticated :
Caprese skewers with mango and basil leaves,
Flaky pastry rolls filled with tuna paté, omelette and cucumber strips,
home baked mini meat pies,
Sushi rolls,
Vegetable cruditée w yoghurt & herbs dip,
Zucchini tortilla cubes,
...And a nice selection of swiss chees and small goods
I'm V. proud of myself today :-)
Oh, and remember the perfect chocolate caked I baked yesterday?
I served it with coffee and limoncello digestive as a final treat! :-)
