cocktails and a platter of finger sized pastry hor'dourves, or just a few upscale cheeses, olives, crackers, etc. on a board, for an appetite teaser. (i always prefer appetizers that you don't have to sit and eat. just something that can be nibbled while everyone chit chats and i can munch while i finish preparing dinner)
veal (or chicken if you are worried about the baby cow thing
) marsala or a francaise with a nice lemon sauce and capers, asparagus with hollandaise and lump crab meat, spring baby greens with a raspberry vinaigrette (or just o and v) and roasted red potatoes with herbs and parm cheese.
key lime pie with a chocolate crust, topped off with freshly whipped cream for dessert
good god that ^^^ sounds fattening. and i'm hungry.
