Welcome to the world of platter food-where cooking meets conviviality, and you're freed from the kitchen to enjoy the party too. This is food built for prepping ahead and sharing in Full Graze Mode, delivering big flavour without last-minute fluster. Think vibrant, Mediterranean-inspired dips, fluffy Chinese duck bao, and the pimped-up hummus of your dreams. And because no great spread is complete without a drink, this book also shakes things up with a lineup of next-level cocktails. From fresh, citrusy spritzes to bold, party-starting classics, there's a sip for every occasion. Not every dish here lands on a literal platter-some arrive in bowls, some on plates, and some just wherever they look best. But who's counting? The real star is the generous, communal spirit-because no matter how it's served, this food (and these drinks) are all about gathering, grazing, and getting stuck in. Perfect for effortless entertaining, Smart Bites + Cool Drinks is a must-have for hosts who love bold flavours, unfussy food, and a cocktail that hits just right.
