Hi - I'm planning a Greek buffet for 200 people. Not a sit down meal -- more like heavy appetizers. People will make their own pita sandwiches with either gyro meat or falafel. How much of each of the following do you suggest?
pocket bread
hummus
greek olives Thanks! |

Hi, I love Greek food and some of the recipes you need are on site- you can use the search this site function to find them.
pocket bread- 1 whole per person tzatziki (for sandwiches) people will also use for salad and just dipping. Allow at least 1 cup per 4.
hummus-1 cup per 4. Don't just treat as a dip; do the presentation where it is spread on the tray, spoon-scaled and dressed with olive oil and sumac. A simple and handsome addition would be the canned vegetarian stuffed grape leaves. I prefer Aetna or Aegean brand and allow 5 cans per 200, which is 300 rolls.
greek olives- 1 gallon per 100 if no olives in the salad, 2-3 quarts if olives elsewhere. baklava triangles- self serving, if the baklava is cut in small pieces, people easily eat 2-3 each. You need coffee with this- see dinner coffee on the beverage planning page, a nice French roast. If this saves you time, trouble or money, please, make a donation, maybe a dime per guest, to support this site. Thanks. |
