12. A growing collection of crockery, cutlery, glassware and servingwareThere’s nothing worse than spending hours whipping up dips, hors d’oeuvres, main dishes and desserts, only to find you don’t have enough serving platters or dinnerware to serve and plate up your gourmet spread. While having a comprehensive collection of crockery, serving dishes, cutlery, tumblers and stemware is an essential for any entertainer, keep a supply of paper or plastic plates, cups, and knives and forks in your kitchen as a back-up if you ever find yourself running low on the real thing.

4. A warming drawerDo you consider yourself a serious entertainer? Then you should seriously consider investing in a warming drawer. Why? You can use this nifty appliance to warm up cups and plates so they’re at an optimum temperature when you’re ready to serve hot drinks and dishes. It will also keep pre-cooked food at just the right temperature if you’re waiting on guests to arrive or in between courses.
