[quote=Anonymous]What do you like to cook? The best menu for a dinner party you’re hosting is something you’ve cooked before and can do well without getting overwhelmed. Or if you really want to try something new, focus on menu items that can be made or assembled ahead of time so you can be relaxed at the party. I tend to like making classic dishes really well, but with a twist that makes it a little different…for me that’s usually putting more effort into a pan sauce that’s really rich and delicious but classic for roasts, going comfort food for sides (esp something made way ahead and baked along with the roast), and having vegetable and the salad be something more unusual and really beautiful (again, made ahead but just assembled at the last minute). I realize this might seem a little boring and traditional, but it’s what I do really well at. I also make a pitcher cocktail and a charcuterie tray that’s all bought items to keep it easy. [/quote]
