[quote=Anonymous]Are you trying to impress? I would ask for dietary preferences, and then go for something showy but safe in flavor. If beef is ok for everyone, a roast whole tenderloin is easy to serve, but still has a wow factor when carved at tableside. You can offer a couple of different sauces - chimichurri, horseradish, red wine, etc. In the summer/spring, serve with a green salad, tomato salad, persian salad with lots of lime, fresh corn salad, creamed corn, german potato salad, beet salad, grilled zucchini, orzo/quinoa/farro salad. In the fall/winter, roast vegetables - brussel sprouts/cauliflower/broccoli/carrots/sweet potato/squash, wedge salad, orzo/quinoa/farro salad again For a "meet the boyfriend/girlfriend", I would do something much less formal that requires everyone to pass items around and assemble their own meal, which breaks the ice. Fish tacos, vietnamese lettuce cups, homemade pizza, etc. [/quote]
