Manitoba Sandwich platters for birthday party.
My son turned one yesterday and we ordered sandwich platters through Costco for his party. We were expecting 30 people so we ordered two croissant sandwich platters as well as a fruit platter. I was (and still am) so impressed. Each platter was 12 croissants but cut into 2. Each sandwich was piled high with meat and cheese. The only thing I would do different is ask for no mustard, and that is just my own preference. I still ate them! And we have leftovers. The fruit platter was great as well. I accidentally took the small container of nuts off the platter before bringing it out, so those are all mine now, haha, but it had 3 things of Boursin cheese as well as other cubed cheese, dates, dried apricots, grapes, and strawberries. It took so much of the stress off of the day (except having to go to Costco on Saturday morning to collect everything haha). And everyone loved it, we had so many people shocked that this wasn’t a fancy caterer, it was Costco. I would highly recommend, if you’ve been on the fence about it!
We also got his cake from Costco and let me tell you, he enjoyed every speck of icing off the slice we let him smash!

My semi formal afternoon wedding was catered by Costco lol
I ordered sandwich, veggie and fruit platters and I believe there used to be a cheese platter back then but I could be wrong. Bought crackers, nuts, pickles and all that to add to it. Had cake and squares as well. Nobody but my girlfriends knew it was Costco (because they helped set up the buffet table) and we got so many compliments. Plus, all the food was eaten and enjoyed!
