How it works

  1. 1Cold = ⌈guests ÷ 3⌉ (casual) or ⌈guests ÷ 2⌉ = 2
  2. 2Hot = guests = 4
  3. 3Soup & staple = 1 + 1 (banquet doubles both)
  4. 4Even total = 8 dishes
Order about 2 more dishes than guests; serve cold dishes before guests arrive; keep the total an even number (avoid 3, 5, 7); a whole fish is a must for 8+ dish banquets; aim for roughly 60% meat / 40% veg without repeating cooking styles; always ask about dietary restrictions first.
