We've already cut the wedding cake, moved on to the drinks, and the guests have joined in for the newlyweds' first dance. Everything has gone perfectly since they said "I do" a few hours ago. "yes I want"The time has come to serve an unexpected snack that the guests will appreciate so they can continue the celebration without the alcohol taking its toll; it is the "late-night snack," a gastronomic contribution to face the early hours with a full stomach.
From Alfonso Catering We offer some suggestions that will be perfect for those hunger pangs during a party, although it's recommended that at least three hours have passed since the last meal was served. It's best to allow time for digestion before eating again if we don't want to overwhelm everyone. The contents of the late supperIt will depend on whether it's served in the early hours of the morning – more frugal – or, if the wedding was at midday, in the early evening – with a higher calorie content. In any case, we offer a variety to choose from that will light up your guests' faces. Alongside the traditional pork loin or pringá sandwiches, mini hot dogs, mini hamburgers, or mini pizzas, which you can be sure will disappear from the trays, we suggest the originality of an oriental late-night snack: sushi, maki, sashimi, noodle stir-fry, or chicken curry.
As night falls, after hours of dancing and drinking, a late-night barbecue is appreciated, with Creole chorizo, charcoal-grilled Iberian pork chops or Moorish skewers; or also, a buffet of Iberian cured meats and cheeses, served in original little stations for the guests to help themselves.
After so much glamour, one is applauded late supper with fried eggs, migas (a traditional breadcrumb dish), and chistorra sausage. We do recommend, however, that you don't seat your guests again, but rather serve small plates that are easy to eat and hold even while standing. Like we serve at buffets of stews, with beef cheeks or spinach with chickpeas… And something warm is always welcome, like the authentic Mexican food stalls, with burritos, fajitas, and nachos with guacamole—then you can keep dancing.
For those with more refined tastes, what more could you ask for than a late-night snack with French champagne and oysters, or a station offering various types of canned rice? Don't forget that the final menu should be consistent with what you served during lunch or dinner, to avoid repeating ingredients or textures. And don't overdo it; remember it's just a light meal and many guests will have already left.
Fruit skewers or a chocolate and candy buffet will add the perfect finishing touch to your most unforgettable day. Rest assured, a late-night snack is always welcome.
