The Council of Australian Life Insurers had a full spread of platters heading into Sydney for what looked like a working lunch with some weight to it. Eighteen sandwich and wrap platters formed the backbone of the order, enough to keep a busy team fed without any interruption to the day. The chipotle chicken burrito platter sat alongside those nicely, giving people something with a bit more substance if they wanted it.
What made the order practical was how the sweeter items balanced the savoury. The chocolate macadamia brownies and fruit skewers on the 20 packs meant there was something to reach for after the main plates were cleared, without anyone needing to organise a separate dessert run.
For a team like CALI’s, that kind of self-contained lunch tends to keep things moving. The fruit skewers in particular are the kind of thing that disappears quickly once the room settles in.
