I take your point about restaurants. I frequently order mismatched meals (steak tartare followed by the only vegetarian main course on the menu? That threw them).
I guess rather than theme as such, though, I was thinking about practicalities. Stodge followed by stodge is bad - and so is not enough stodge, as you don't want your guests ending up hungry.
colourful for starters
I never think of colours of food, really. I should. Maybe I should have put a carrot or two in that pumpkin soup last night - it came out purest beige.
