The Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park sits right in the heart of Sydney, and when a venue like that places a catering order, the food needs to carry itself without any fuss. Fifty finger sandwiches arrived split evenly between two fillings: chicken and avocado on white bread, and egg and chive mayo with rocket on wholemeal. Both dairy free, both ready to go.

What made this order practical was how cleanly it divided. Guests could identify each sandwich at a glance without needing to lift lids or ask questions. The wholemeal and white bread acted as a visual cue more than anything else, which tends to matter when people are moving through a room quickly.

The egg and chive mayo with rocket had a little more going on texturally, and that contrast against the lighter chicken and avocado option kept the whole thing from feeling one-note.
