A talented home cook has shown off her Saturday night ‘poker platter’ – after she was forced to practise self isolation amid the coronavirus outbreak.
The woman from Australia shared the results of her ‘feast’ on Facebook, where she said she used ‘all Kmart plates’ and an assortment of delicious food.
The cook included Coles fresh chicken wings, a cheese and bacon cob loaf, chips, bread and an assortment of dips on her platter.

The platter was a huge success online, where thousands of people said it looks ‘delicious’ and is ‘the best food idea I’ve seen for lockdown’.
‘Do you home deliver?’ one Facebook user quipped.
‘This is sensational,’ another added.
While the majority of people were impressed with the ‘poker platter’, not everyone was on board with it as a food idea during these times.
‘It looks great but platters are not really a good thing right now,’ one woman posted.
‘Everyone picking food off the same plate is a good way to spread the virus.’

Platters as a food trend hit the headlines at the end of last year, when clever home cooks started putting together elaborate plates piled high with desserts like pavlova, cheese boards and more.
The woman said she has done all sorts of platters in the past – including appetisers and puddings – and she always uses the same Kmart dish.
‘I basically use this same set up for all my platters I make and I have added photos of my Christmas cheese platter and pavlova platter also,’ she said.
