BlackBay Lawyers had an Italian Antipasto Platter delivered to their Sydney office this week, and it was exactly the kind of order that suits a legal workplace. The platter came loaded with cured meats, marinated vegetables, olives, and aged cheeses, the sort of food that holds up well over a longer lunch without needing any attention once it’s on the table.
For a team that’s likely moving between meetings and calls, having something people can come back to at their own pace makes a real difference. Nobody needs to stop what they’re doing at a set time. The food just sits there, ready when people are.
The antipasto format also means nothing goes cold or loses its appeal after the first twenty minutes, which in a busy firm like BlackBay Lawyers is probably more useful than it sounds.
