[quote=Anonymous]I always serve some sort of hors d'oeuvres. If you're guests coming to our house for a meal, we'll greet you at the door and take you into the living room where we will serve drinks. I will have out some hors d'oeuvres there, whether it be a simple cheese and cracker tray for a variety of nibblies. I think it would be very odd to have you in my living room drinking drinks and not have any food out. If you want to be basic about it, then I think of having the hors d'oeuvres as priming the pump. If I go to your house and you have nothing, I won't think less of you but I will think it is odd and that perhaps you don't know how things are "done." I have lived all over the world and I'm having a hard time thinking of any country or culture where it is considered correct or acceptable to NOT serve any type of hors d'oeuvres or appetizer and I can't think of one. It doesn't mean that there aren't any places but just that I haven't lived or visited there.[/quote]
