Brunch is a great meal for a reception. Would you be willing to tweak it a little by adding one showy dish? A fancy strata, such as the maple date strata on this site, or grits and grillades, shrimp and grits, etc.. Can be added with not much extra effort. Also, will you be serving mimosas, bloody Mary's, sangria, etc? It affect amounts. Also, Consider a non-green salad, such as a Caprese tomato, basil, and fresh mozzarella, for color and interest? In addition, I would definitely go with mini muffins and small bagels- people like to try a little of everything at this type meal. Do any of these ideas interest you? Write back. |

Thanks, great ideas! Especially the Caprese salad - my garden's basil will make it perfect - how much to get?. Didn't think of mini-muffins and small bagels - Great idea! Not sure if the bagel store can do that, but will check. And we will have the makings for mimosas & bloody Mary's. Thanks for your help, much appreciated. |
