Re: serving suggestion

I think I'll mix some on a small plate next to the bread, but also leave out the ingredients with some small bowls. A little oregano & pepper mixed with the parmesan and the bottles of vinegar and oil. They'll figure it out. Oh, and on the prepared plate, a ring of minced garlic. 
Thanks for all the suggestions!
Personally, I just don't care for bread dipped in oil.  Tastes greasy.

I would suggest mixing a little balsamic vinegar with the oil. Some people like a little salt and pepper, or an herb mix, and as you say, parmesan is great. Why don't you provide a mix of things and let your guests customize?

What I'd like to know, is how people serve the breads they dip in oil; thought someone might know. I had purchased extra virgin olive oil for a baked potato horsdoerves, and now have no oven. I got some specialty breads and wondered if I should serve the oil on the side. But I think it's supposed to have something else, too. Is it parmesan cheese?
I can't bake my pie so I ordered a white choc raspberry cake roll from a specialty shop. Lasagna is out so I'm going with mosticioli made with some organic ingredients. I got a blend of 5 cheeses to sprinkle on top - maybe I should have picked up some parmesan.
