ING had a 3pm delivery this week, and the timing shaped everything about how the food was put together. Late afternoon drops work differently to lunch. People are grazing, not sitting down, so the order needed to hold up across an extended window rather than land all at once.
The grazing platter anchored the table, sitting alongside the couscous, pumpkin and feta salad and a chicken caesar salad platter. The two salads gave the spread enough substance for anyone treating it as a proper afternoon meal. Twelve sandwich, wrap and baguette platters handled the volume. For a Sydney CBD team of that size, having enough handheld options matters more than most clients expect.
The seasonal fruit platter was the one that tends to go quietly but consistently. By the time everything else had been picked through, it was still moving.
