If i meet this situation,i serve them with the food which i usually eat in my daily life.Because they arrive in the odd hour without informing me,i have no time to ready for it,so what i eat is the guests eat.

Yes. Generally we do like this in normal times. But when there is no food left, and suddenly guests arrive at odd hour without informing, then we face some embarassing situation but still we must provide some food to them and so we rush to the kitchen to prepare something which is tasty and filling too. The first comes to our mind is bread, and egg it is fast and filling. just we try to make bread omelette

I guests arrived suddenly without telling me in advance I would serve whatever I would have available at the time. I would cook it nice and interesting, but would not go trough the trouble of shopping in a hurry just because they were there. In a hurry a nice chicken salad with garlic bread might do, some pasta with a nice sauce and maybe shrimp, or even a fast potato salad. It would depend on the season as well. In summer we prefer light dishes and in winter something hot and heavier. Worse comes to worse I would make a platter with cold cuts cheese and grapes, or the Portuguese cheese, ham,Portuguese sausage, prosciutto , olives and bread thing :)

Hi Chicken salad, and garlic bread sounds tempting. Pastas with nice sauce too is a good combination. Yes your way of serving the sudden guests at odd time is very interesting and tempting

If guests would arrive suddenly without informing me, I'd serve them whatever I had on hand at the time and prepare a dish to serve them.

Hi Sometimes guests will land in suddenly without informing us, and it will be embarassing if there is nothing left to serve them which happens sometimes. So out of rice flour and plain flour i will make one instant pan cake with green pepper, fresh coriander, onion and cumin which is tasty and filling and i will serve some milk shakes along with it for extra filling which makes them happy and content.
