Main menu offerings

If you would rather not opt for organic and gourmet dishes, but the local favorites, there are several menu items that would be hot favorites of your guests. For instance, the salad bar could include a range of cured meat with different sauces. That will surely get everyone making the rounds and opting for more. The main dishes could include savory offerings like crispy pork belly and foie gras dishes. Pork in different forms, baked or grilled, meaty lasagna would surely make your menu a hot topic of discussion of those who love to be greedy and have no qualms in indulging themselves in food that is forbidden for dieters.
Balance it out
If you think that there are too many meat offerings, and not much for dieters and those who wish to eat healthy, add in local fresh fish dishes as well as vegetable based dishes to balance out the main menu. Allow guests to experiment with different kinds of fruits and vegetables in their deserts and salads which should offer sufficient options for different palates. Guests can choose to go light or gorge on meat to their heart’s desire if they wish to. Food is what makes any event memorable, especially wedding events.
