I think if they offer 4 stations and 10 passed hor d'oerves that should be plenty.... sometimes you have the option to add a station or extra passed... etc... We're actually getting 7 stations & 17 passed...that was just offered.. we didn't have to add anything.

It really all depends. Some places, like the Watermill, have two menus. Some places do all chafing dishes. Come places to all stations. NRC gives you eight stations and 10-15 passed.
