Festive Cocktail Ideas
The French style of entertaining called the apéro dînatoire is a favourite way of throwing parties in France. Holiday parties are perfectly suited for apéro dînatoire gatherings and the spontaneity of inviting friends over. When you mention apéro dînatoire, your guests will know that there will be plenty of food served in a casual manner. This type of party is becoming more common as it is the perfect balance between the apéro cocktail party and a formal dinner party.
