Group similar foods and flavors together

If you really want to get creative, use it to strategically group and display your food at the buffet. But if you're not interested in getting that detailed, just keep obvious pairings like soups and salads or dips and chips a logical distance from one another.

Is it cheaper to make your own sandwich platter? ›

Not only is it cheaper, it looks gorgeous when served.

How do you pack a sandwich for a crowd? ›

Plus, a sandwich wrapped in paper will stay together better as it's being cut into pieces. For most sandwiches, though, a resealable plastic bag will work just fine, especially if the sandwich is fragrant and you don't want it smelling up your bag or annoying your neighbors.
