T’is the season for holiday parties and entertaining!!!! The best foodie tool of all….PLATTERS!!! This is the easiest way to prep appies, serve meals, pass around deserts…..pretty well anything to do with having guests over. SOOOOO we’ve made it easy for you…Tori is sharing with you her TOP 5 picks for the season….
Dressing up your holiday table can be a daunting task! In my experience, choosing the right serve ware to show off your food is the best place to start! There is little doubt that the turkey or ham takes the centre stage on the table year after year, so I highly recommend investing in an amazing platter that reflects your style. Here are my favourite top 5 picks this year!
2. Rustic Vintage – What a stunning way to present a rustic simple dish. I can picture the sprigs of rosemary and stuffing already!
3. Fleur De Lys – I’m obsessed with anything French! Bound to make your guests say ‘ooo la la’
4. Handmade Ceramic Hexagon – Hand-made with love straight from NYC, this artisan beauty has perfectly sloped sides.
5. Pickard Monogram Serveware – Gold, white and monogrammed, sure to become a family heirloom.
I LOVE platters! Living in Ottawa, I’m surrounded by small towns just a short drive away through the countryside. Every summer I scour the antique shops- especially the flea markets- and always find a platter or two to take home. Each one is different and when I pick one up from it’s plate stand I remember who I was with when I found it. The best is knowing that each has a history. What fun!
