Off to Market: Appetizer Plates
When you entertain as much as I do, it's important to have a selection of stylish appetizer plates. From small plates to decorative trays, these serving platters are essential to displaying delicious dishes. I'm always looking for interesting pieces — like these portable, three-part servers by NapaStyle ($78.00) — to add to my collection, so let's head off to market in search of appetizer servingware.
Cylindrical Appetizer Holder: Love It or Hate It?
On Thursday night I went to a swanky little launch party at the sleek Zephyr Showroom. The highlight of the evening — hosted by San Francisco's Junior League — wasn't the drinks or the decor, but the cylindrical appetizer holder! Heads turned as the caterers walked by holding the long skinny pole with skewered salmon sticking out of it.

Wine Glass Top Appetizer Plate: Love It or Hate It?
When we recently posed the question of whether you'd be willing to wear a wine necklace to free your hands at a food event, most of you responded with a resounding no. Here's another multitasking solution for your next food fête: an appetizer plate sized to fit a wine glass, so you can carry both in one hand. While it's more spill-proof and less risqué than a wine necklace, it does cover the glass entirely, making it harder to throw back a few drinks.
Wine Appetizer Tray: Love It Or Hate It?
Last week I asked you guys what you thought of a set of white cocktail party plates that allow you to hold your wine glass on the side. I love the concept and liked their modern look. However, a bunch of you thought they looked too cheap.
Off to Market: Serving Ware
In the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving, I like to take inventory of my serving ware. I plan on doing a lot of entertaining between now and New Year's, and whether I'm plating up bite-sized appetizers or slicing pieces of roast chicken, I'm going to need a lot of serving trays and bowls.
I want to invest in a couple of new ones, can you help me find them?
Killer App: Blue Cheese and Arugula Crostini
Sometimes a cheese plate is too predictable, and a salad seems boring. In those moments, I like to fix up a platter of these arugula-adorned crostini, which deliver both the richness of blue cheese and some greenery to get your meal going. To balance out the bitter greens and pungent cheese, I slice up a loaf of sweet cranberry-walnut bread, though any fruity and nutty dough will do.
Come Party With Me: Bastille Day Lunch — The Look
Use the casual elegance of the French countryside as the inspiration for a Bastille Day lunch. Set up a pretty table in the patio. Use cloth napkins with a Provencal print.
Say Cheese! Parmesan Fricos
Parmesan cheese is quite possibly Italy's most popular cheese. The hard, dry cheese has clearly won its way into the hearts of America. It's made from skimmed (or partially skimmed) cow's milk and has a pale golden rind and light-straw interior.
Come Party With Me: March Madness — The Look
The main focus at a sports tournament viewing is the game, so keep the decor to a clean minimum. When the menu consists of an assortment of appetizers, select beautiful platters to serve them on. Think about the color of the food and how it will look once plated.
