# Expert Tips:
01 -
- Its the ultimate low stress weekend breakfast that looks impressive but takes zero cooking skill
- Everyone gets exactly what they want without you running a short order diner kitchen
02 -
- Everything should be at room temperature before serving because cold cheese and butter just do not taste the same
- The board looks best when you group items in odd numbers and vary the heights throughout
03 -
- Prepare everything the night before except the bread which should be toasted fresh that morning
- Use small ramekins or jam jars for condiments to contain any drips and keep the board looking neat
