If you have exactly zero cooking skills, go to Whole Foods and buy a few ounces of three different cheeses: one soft, one goat, one firm/aged. Get fresh strawberries, raspberries, walnuts, honey, olives/cornichons, a baguette, and at least one bottle of champagne. Arrange cheeses on a platter w/olives & sliced baguette, pile up the walnuts & drizzle honey over them. Open the champagne.

Yea I would do this, but anyone should be able to make a cast iron so hot it makes the smoke alarms go off after the butter hits it and then shoot a steak on there for 90 seconds a side. Finish it in the oven to your doneness preference and call it a day. Get a big piece of meat then cut it up over some greens and you look like a god

Your idea to do a meat/cheese plate is a great one
