When it comes to casual entertaining I never gave much thought to food presentation, particularly what I’m serving the food in. I’ve usually used whatever bowl or dish fit whatever I was serving best, also keeping in mind easy clean up and leftover storage. I didn’t realize until we had a small party at work how much nicer the food looks when it’s in nice serving dishes. Take chips and dip, or tortillas and salsa. Imagine you are a guest, sitting in comfortable home theater seating for a movie party. Which leaves a bigger impression – an old piece of Tupperware or a nice, festive sombrero that holds chip and keeps dip warm? For me it was the sombrero. It just seemed to make things more fun. I’ll be keeping that in mind before I host my next get together. Do you usually serve food in special dishes or whatever is handy?
