Decision guide
Plan by serving style, not only guest count.
Guest count alone does not change what food should be served. The useful decision is whether the visit needs a full meal, snacks, or a quick serve menu.

Questions
Helpful answers before the user starts cooking.
Does guest count change the menu?
Guest count is used with serving style to prioritize easier, batch-friendly ideas.
Can I plan only snacks?
Yes. Choose snacks when guests are coming for tea or a light visit.
Why is serving style more important than only guest count?
Two guests for dinner and two guests for tea need different food. Serving style tells the tool whether to prioritize full meal recipes, snacks, or quick serve ideas.

The guest tool is designed to prioritize recipes that feel more suitable for visitors, especially when full meal or snacks mode is selected.
Can I use this for sudden guests?
Yes. Choose quick serve or snacks when guests arrive with little notice and you need realistic ideas fast.
Can I plan a vegetarian guest menu?
Yes. Keep food type on veg to browse vegetarian recipes for guests at home.
Is this useful for small home gatherings?
Yes. It works for small dinners, tea-time guests, casual get-togethers, and simple party-style food at home.
