Default Buffet Food

When you guys are out at a party and you hit the buffet what do you head for first?

I've offered to cook/bake stuff for a friend for New Year. But would love to know what sort of things people go for. I was thinking things like sausage rolls (done with streaky bacon wrapped inside) mini toad in the holes with gravy, scotch eggs and different pakoras. Could also do a potato soup with bacon through it.

But what do you guys like at a buffet?

Since when did a buffet not contain egg mayo sarnies, sausages on sticks and pickled onions and pineapples on sticks?



I head for the cake trolley, to see how much I can get away with later

Cold meats are always popular in my house with mozzarella and sweet peppers/sundried toms in oil and stuffed chili peppers and decent bread.

Roasted chicken thighs (in hot sauce with honey and brown sugar). Toasted French bread sliced with asparagus and Spanish ham. Whole poached salmon and veggie kebabs. Potato skins.

Easy wins - pizza, baked potato, chilli cc/curry or a big vat of soup. Deep fried bits like prawns on toast, pakora, samosa, butterfly prawns, chicken

I'm hungry
