Warmer weather means it's time for al fresco dining. Celebrity caterer Andrea Correale of Elegant Affairs stops by to share some tips with CBS2's Cindy Hsu.
These aren't picnic foods. These are party foods. Come on. Lemon bowls? Extravagant-looking mini steamer baskets?? There are perfect picnics that do take time since it's usually more high end if it's "Perfect" but no these containers are not needed at all. The food needs to be the focus. Great food, simple containers, a good clean soft blanket and a homemade bug spray with water and peppermint oil. What happened to good light sandwiches, light salads and a light drink? Most things featured here are for parties.
@@charlesblack1972 Nah these are meant to be together. Because in a picnic you have something to snack on for which they show the cookies and cheese+nuts. For the drinks they showed the vodka one, for the appetizer they have that spring rolls. So it's all together. However this is not a picnic outlook. More like a party. Cause the steamer baskets and the teriyaki containers are not commonly used ever. I would only agree this to be a picnic if ppl are celebrating something big. Like an anniversary or something. Else for a quick picnic this is too much work. Cute containers are good, but these are impractical containers.
Love it
Why is every simple picnic food on TH-cam NOT simple..?
Nicee!!
... Just don't use fingers for demonstration
Why would she not use her hands for her own packed food? Jaaayzus what an asshat

Too much to carry
Not realistic. I agree.
Pretty sure these are different ideas not meant to use them all together
