Hello and welcome, fellow event enthusiasts! Whether you’re planning a wedding, a birthday bash, or an office corporate party where Janet from Accounts inevitably spills red wine on important spreadsheets, one thing is certain: food is a big deal. But did you know that the alcohol factor can add a little extra spice (and appetite) to your catering plans? Let’s dive into why ordering more portions when alcohol is involved is not just a good idea, but an absolute must!

1. The Magic of Liquid Courage 🍷✨

First things first: once the corks start popping, people get brave. And what’s the first thing they do when they’re feeling confident? They strut up to the buffet like they own the place! Suddenly, that modest Thai tapas platter you put together looks like a magician’s disappearing act. Poof! Gone. And let’s be honest, no one keeps track of how many spring rolls they’ve inhaled after the third glass of Prosecco. As the saying goes, “What happens at the buffet, stays at the buffet!”

2. The All-You-Can-Eat Challenge 😋🏆

Every event has that one person—a cousin, a friend, or even Uncle Bob—who treats a buffet like an Olympic sport. They’ll pile their plate high enough to warrant an environmental impact assessment! When alcohol is flowing, suddenly every guest feels like a contestant in an all-you-can-eat challenge. And while we love a competitive spirit, your carefully curated food selection might not survive the frenzy. The result? Hurt feelings, hungry guests, and you, biting your nails in the corner!

3. A Full Stomach is a Happy Stomach 🍽️😊

Alcohol hits differently on an empty stomach, folks! With a few drinks in hand, folks are suddenly inspired to savour every bite—until they suddenly find themselves forgetting to pace themselves. Mixed drinks can create a perfect storm of appetite, making that shrimp cocktail look more inviting than ever. Trust us when we say that a full belly leads to happy, dance-floor-dominating guests.

4. The Aftermath of Happy Hours 😴💤

There’s a reason they say “the morning after” in hushed tones. A little too much fun means a lot more food in the form of late-night fridge raids. When guests smell those leftover Pad Thai , they’re not just going to think about it—they’re going to come hunting. It’s a culinary treasure hunt, and you want to make sure that treasure chest is overflowing with goodies!

5. “I Swear I Thought That Was an Appetiser!” 🥴🙈

Ever been in a situation where someone feels just fine until they realise they’ve eaten the last of the satay chicken ? There’s usually enough tension in the air to cut with a butter knife! By planning for more portions, you can avoid the “I thought that was just a sample” debacle that leads to ruffled feathers (and an unholy amount of awkwardness).

The Final Verdict

In the end, ordering 20% extra portions when alcohol is present is your insurance policy against hungry guests, competitive eaters, and late-night bread-thieves! Here at FanThai Sticks, we take pride in crafting just the right menu for your event, ensuring everyone leaves feeling satisfied and ready to Karaoke their hearts out!

So, the next time you’re planning an event, remember: when in doubt, add an extra tray of that delicious Thai spring roll or another platter of those mesmerizing Thai fishcakes. Because happy guests mean happy hosting, and a night to remember (or, perhaps, forget in the morning)!

Cheers, and happy planning from the team at FanThai Sticks—where every event is a feast fit for your friends and family! 🍻

1. Why Thai Food? It is a Party in Your Mouth!

Let’s face it, Thai food is that friend who comes to the party with a piñata full of surprises. Sometimes you never know what you’re going to get, but you know it’s gonna be a blast! Here are just a few of the many reasons why Thai needs to be a VIP at the dinner table:

Thai food is the culinary equivalent of a fireworks show where sweet, sour, salty, and spicy all come together in perfect harmony and will make your taste buds do the cha-cha! From the zest of lemongrass to the creaminess of coconut milk, each bite was an adventure.

2. Fresh Ingredients:

We’re all about that fresh life! Thai cuisine is full of bright veggies, aromatic herbs, and lean proteins. It’s like a health food store and flavor factory had a delicious baby. Who knew eating healthy could taste this good?

3. Varieties are the Spice of Life:

Whether into pungent curries, fried spring rolls, or the eternal Pad Thai, there is something for everyone. Even your finicky cousin who only eats plain pasta will love something here-yes, even you, Uncle Bob!.

4. It’s Social: Thai food is for sharing!

Round up your friends, family, or that neighbor of yours that always seems to be borrowing your lawnmower, and chow down together. There is nothing that brings people closer than a table full of dishes and a few friendly food fights-mostly.
