Putting Together a Family Food Order at Home Cafe

A family order is easier to put together when everyone chooses a dish first. Home Cafe's menu has hot mains, dumplings, salads and sweets, so people can choose different food without building separate orders.

Start with each person's main

For hot dishes, choose pork meatballs, beef meatballs, chicken cutlet or borscht.

The pelmeni and vareniki menu has several fillings, including chicken pelmeni with Greek yogurt and potato vareniki. Someone who wants a bowl can choose tuna with quinoa or zucchini pancakes with chicken from salads and bowls.

Write down the full names as you go. That keeps the pork and beef versions, or the different vareniki fillings, clear.

Put sides beside the right dish

Add mashed potatoes or buckwheat where wanted. They are separately priced sides. Put each one beside the main it belongs with so it is easy to check the order.

Then collect the drink and dessert choices. You might want different cake slices, sochni or an assortment of cookies. Ask about the day's cookie selection if choosing assorted sweets.

Make one call with the complete list

Give Home Cafe the dish names, quantities and the time you have in mind. Mention any ingredient requirements before confirming the order. For delivery, provide the address and agree the timing, total and any charge with staff.

Keep the final list until everyone has their food. If you are planning several evenings ahead, the family meal-planning guide helps separate meals you will cook from those you will order.
