A lunchtime drop to Sydney CBD today, and this one was built around individual bowls rather than shared trays. Four Chicken Chipotle Burrito Bowls, four Hot Honey Ground Beef Bowls, four Chicken Vietnamese Salad Bowls, and four Bimbimbap Poke Bowls covered the individual servings, giving everyone at the table something distinct rather than pulling from the same dish.

What made the order function well in a workplace setting was the way the platters sat alongside the bowls without doubling up. The Eat Your Fruit and Veg Salad Platter and the Seasonal Fruit Platter filled the middle of the table as shared pieces, which meant people had something to graze on before the bowls were handed out. The fruit especially tends to disappear quickly in an office environment around midday.

Twenty individual portions is a reasonable count for a team lunch, and the mix of protein bases meant dietary preferences were covered without anyone needing a custom request.
