How many different food choices should be in a buffet??

I think it sounds like a great selection! Yummy

Okay good...I am just always concerned that there won't be enough to fill people up!! But the way I see it, it's a bigger selection than a plated meal! Plus I might add some pasta too it too...not sure yet.

that sounds great but a pasta might be a good idea for those that are vegetarians or kids that are fussy eaters

[edna]

I agree with the pasta.... is always a good choice and filling in case you are afraid of not having enough food!!!

[amyh]

mmm that sounds so yummy!

[Spazz]

That sounds so good! But, I agree with the pasta, especially if you have vegetarians coming.

great point tammy!!!

Michelle - that is plenty! i went to a wedding there last year and the menu was very similar - almost identical - they did add the pasta and they also had the fajita station but they didn't really need that much.

Sounds like a great spread.
