Where's best for Christmas Eve nibbles?

I am close to

Asda, Morrisons, Tesco Metro, Iceland and Sainsburys.

Budget is not a prob and there is 6 of us.

I like m&s, can you not get to one ? I dont recommend iceland, theyre rank.

 

[v2007]

Ooooh i forgot about M&S, we got stuff from their in 2008 and omg it was gorg.

M&S is a 30 mins bus ride away but they are nice.

I have never had Icelands stuff, i was swayed by the ad

m&s isnt too expensive cos they do deals on their party food anyway like 3 for 2 or 2 for £5. I got 3 for £5 on my stuffings, bread sauce, cranberry sauce and chipolatas

It's just as easy to make your own without much effort

Ready made yorkshires with a cocktail sausage popped into each one (or a small slice of beef curled with a smidgin of horseradish sauce), smoked salmon/smoked oysters on crostini, vol au vents stuffed with ready made sandwich fillers, part baked petit pain with butter and cheeses on a board, blini with lumpfish roe (poor man's caviar), mince pies, ... it saves you spending half your day and evening popping stuff in and out of the oven as it can mostly be prepared in advance and the ingredients can be bought from any supermarket which makes life easier in this weather

LOL - if you lived close then I'd be more than happy to

They are really easy though - most of the bits can be bought ready made, like frozen yorkshires, vol au vent cases, part baked rolls, cooked beef/sausages from the deli counter, blinis and lumpfish roe from the cold counter etc.

Just prepare them during the day in between other stuff, so you get to spend the whole evening with your guests

Id say Tesco, Asda or M&S. They have party food in Tesco`s on offer at the mo, and I gotta say the loaded potato skins are gorgeous

 

[leoniebabey]

I love m&s soo nice but expensive,
asda is nice and cheap
not tried teso's dont live near one and sainburys is alright too

 

[v2007]

Sainsburys won.

M&S had nothing left

[leoniebabey]

ohh no! most likely cause m&s is the best one

i hope your sainburys nibbles taste yummy

and thankyou for making me hungry !
