    Nothing says "you're at my fuckin house" more than this. This is like the equivalent if fucking their dad I think.
    Serve with Bud Light. Just to show inclusivity.

    Poke bowls is really easy to do as a group and you can semi-prep most of it ahead of time. Choice of toppings can give a nice impression plus you can laugh at the people that can't use chopsticks.

    Otherwise for brunch I also enjoy making brunch bowls I copied from Name. Truffled mushrooms, bacon, and poached eggs over a tator tot base. Then add some hollandaise sauce and a tiny bit of parmesan cheese.

    Braised short ribs w/ gravy, garlic mash potatoes, fried string onions and a vegetable side.
    Easy and not a lot of ingredients. Short ribs and possibly mash potatoes can be cooked the day before (Short ribs apparently tastes better)

    Very hearty, savoury and makes you look like a A+ Chef haha!

    Nah, we just use City Fish and get stuff that's already been flash frozen and is safe to go. Just freezing fish in your regular freezer isn't sufficient if it has parasites.

    Hire a chef to come in and prepare everything for you and your guests.

    That way you can enjoy your company and not worry about dinner at all.

    If you are serious I have a buddy who does this with a top notch group, just did some puck players house warming down the block from me.

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    Impressing someone by hiring a chef and impressing someone by cooking something impressive are very different vibes. Guess which one sounds better is a matter of personal opinion or taste.

    Money is better spent on topless servers for the poker night than a chef

    Hah oh man.... bud light. For a large group? Sounds like an Edmonton thing....

    On a serious note how about a big sea food boil type setup. Had a friend do an amazing ceviche, with many other sea food options spread out on the table for everyone to grab. It was awesome. Scallops, lobster, squid etc etc.
