Buffet Froid

About twice a year, on a Sunday, we invite many friends for cocktails and buffet. A professional bartender makes drinks and once the party gets under way we have only to enjoy ourselves.

Foods are cooked the day before, but finished and decorated the day of the party. A lace tablecloth covers the dining table and all foods are placed on it at party time. Small plates stand at attention on each end of the table, but there are no forks. Foods are eaten on picks, crackers, breads, toast, or with fingers. There are plenty of napkins around and in sight.
