Re: help!! Guests arriving
A few times when we had lots of guests coming, we'd do some cooking ourselves and order food too. Its worked very well! We'd order from Desi restaurants, like big tray of samosa, rice, some beef or ckn dish. A 3-foot long hero sandwich and some salads from the deli counter at the grocery store. Then we'd fill in with our specialties - like roast lamb, biryani and chicken tandoori. That way, some of the pressure is off, we can enjoy making our specialites and still have all the trimmings. And you do save a bit when you do at least some of it yourself.
