You're right: more information is needed for you to be able to help me
out.

I'll expect approximately 7 people and I'm going to cook, myself. I'm
not going to make it fancy with starters and all, and I don't expect
the guests to arrive at the same time, as it's common here to drop by
at an approximate time, and the host having either a cold buffet, or
something kept warm. I think that a cold buffet would be the best. As
far as my cooking skills go, I can follow a recipe and maybe improvise
a bit if there's something I can't find in the shops, but I can't make
anything *too* complicated or fancy. I live in Stockholm, so many
exotic food items aren't too hard to come by.

At first I though about a paella, which I have the recipe for and
which went down well with omnivores a couple of years ago, but those
were omnivores who like vegetables, so that's different, and it might
not be the best thing to keep warm.

Dessert will be chocolate cake, no discussion there. I don't know if
I'll bake or buy, but there will definitely be chocolate cake.
