Imagine the preparations for the waiting staff and chefs for the annual Nobel Banquet which is held after the Nobel Prize Ceremony. The banquet hosts 1300 guests including the Swedish Royal Family.

I can only imagine the amount of fresh ingredients they have to prepare before cooking all of them. Cooking for 1300 is difficult as each plate have to have the same consistent taste and look.
I know a group of researchers who investigate the perception of artistic plate arrangements – apparently odd numbers of items, arranged circularly, are preferred….. intriguing!
Wow 1300 guests! I can imagine that it can be a nerve-racking event for the waiting stuff and chefs, but I am sure that they are honoured to participate in the Nobel Banquet.
I’d love to join that multisensorial feast one day 😉 Apparently if you’re alumnus from Sweden, you can apply… I’m sure it’s a long waiting list! Meanwhile, we’ll have our own parties right! IM-BBQ, anyone…? as in the old days
