Buying food for a party of 12, any suggestion?
My office is having a small birthday celebration, besides the usual fastfood wat can i buy?
Answers:
Supermarkets have nice deli trays with meat and cheese. You could get one of those and some rolls.
Don't forget the cake (or cupcakes)!

I'd go with a salad appitizer and maybe some pasta dishes or something for dinner, its cheap and delicious.
Subway a steak house that caters.
GOOD LUCK!
It depends on what party you are wanting to have. I understand it's a birthday party, but what is the theme? If there is none I would try casual foods: chips, dip, maybe a veggie tray. Of course you are going to have cake if it is for a co-worker's birthday. You could also try making small sandwiches using crackers, cheese, and small pieces of lunch meat. You could also have pickles as an option for the cracker sandwiches. Also look on the back and/or sides of a Ritz cracker box. There are sometimes good ideas there.
I'm sure you don't want to cook for such a large group, so go to Costco if your city has one. They have tons of great stuff, here's my suggestions:
* Seafood salad w/crackers
* Lemon Cooler Cake
* Turkey pin wheels
* Cesear Salad
* Spinach Salad
* Shrimp w/cocktail sauce
* Fresh grapes and strawberries served w/crackers and cheese
Hope that helps :)
chessy pizza, salad, fruity drinks try it my goodies to finish a sponge cake try the fruity one
make some mini cheeseburger and serve them on a plate of lettuce they will love it u cant fail with that
Buy food for thirteen, I relish roasted chicken
I'd go the deli route and pick up a container of potato salad, chicken salad, some ham salad, crackers and cheese. Or maybe get some green olives, hummus, feta and mini pita for variety.
Make a cheese platter, out of munster cheese, and other of your favorites. You can buy rolls and slice them and they look like little tiny french bread slices, line them around your platter. You can buy those lil toothpicks with the colorful swirly stuff at the end, and stick them into each cube or rolled slice of cheese, it looks like you fussed and to top it off you did it yourself!! Also a veggie platter as well, with broccoli, celery, small carrots with ranch dressing goes a long way and pleases the dieters, lite eaters! (they sell good veggie platters at Costco and good cheeses!)
Have fun!
