I wouldn't serve a soup for an evening meal because you can't always
guarantee that people will have the bowl and spoon to eat it with. Soup
appears to be the norm for on-site lunches hereabouts--soup, bread,
butter, cheese, apples--so for my last event lunch I served sausages
instead of soup. :-)
If I do another feast I am similarly unlikely to serve a preponderance of
things that require bowls and spoons, even though it's appropriate for
everybody except head table, just because it's logistically too much of a
pain to deal with.
