Oh yes beef Wellington was a party piece. Seems to roll around ever 20 years or so.
How about the pineapple centrepiece with cheese and gherkins stuck on toothpicks . Ritz crackers a must. Spam and pineapple kabobs.
Meat loaf was very popular.
Just remember this was after the war and most people did not have a lot of money in the early 50’s and the music was all about Elvis.
