A dinner party blog for curious people looking for unique ways to feed their friends.
Fancy dinner parties are a thing of the past.
Stick to the basics, make a schedule, and don’t be afraid to ask for help.
Make your dinner party memorable.
Taste and presentation are important, but if there’s no spark, your dinner party’s a dud. (Hint, it doesn’t have to be!)
You don’t have to be a master chef.
Avoid breaking the bank (or your back) and use simple recipes and menus that are easy to prepare in advance, instead.
“People want honest, flavorful food, not some show-off meal that takes days to prepare.” – Ted Allen
