Well, here I am . . . turning to the crew that I know I can count on for good advice (and recipes). I just took a call from a lady who would like to host a "ladies' tea" fundraiser for 200 people. She had the typical chicken salad on croissant, fruit cup, scones, etc. in mind, but I would love to take this one step further and actually do this with finger sandwiches, maybe some cool litttle wrap roll-ups, some individual small sweets - know where I am going with this?
So guys, roll this around a bit and give me some of your ideas, I already know they will be fabulous. Nobody in this area does anything like this and it would be a really fabulous opportunity to produce something very cool. But bear in mind it would need to be something that I can produce relatively economically and get out to 200 people. I am thinking of placing several plates of sandwiches on the tables, with sweets following. But I am really open to ideas.
I know that Lorraine said Gil was a guru producing wonderful food cheaply and has the catering background, not to mention Jean who is probably hurdling through Master Cook as she reads this. But I am sure the rest of you have all have something to contribute as well.
Can't wait to see what you have to offer!
