Jivaro’s office in Sydney had a straightforward brief, and the order reflected exactly that. Ten sandwich platters alongside a large fruit platter. Nothing overcomplicated, just enough to feed a proper group without anyone going short.
The fruit platter ended up doing a lot of quiet work in the background. While the sandwiches handled the main hunger, the fruit gave people somewhere to come back to between conversations. Melon, strawberries, grapes, that kind of thing tends to sit on the table a lot longer than people expect it to.
Ten platters is a volume that suggests the Jivaro team were feeding a decent crowd, likely a meeting or an all-hands where food needed to move fast and be easy to grab without fuss. Sandwiches cut for a standing crowd are practical in a way that a sit-down setup just isn’t.
The fruit platter was the last thing cleared.
