If you're looking for something easy, unusual, and surprisingly good, try this one:

Buy some fresh kiwi and/or starfruit. You can do one or the other, but going half and half makes it a little more interesting.

Cut them up into slices (crossways, not lengthwise) so they will be bite-sized pieces. Marinate them for several hours in champagne - in the fridge.

Take them out of the champagne, arrange them on a plate, and serve.

Notes:

I don't guess the marinating time is important, except that I've always assumed soaking them overnight would be too long and would just make them soggy.

Also, here's your chance to get rid of that cheap champagne you bought once, or else a good excuse to buy some Cold Duck. Seriously - the cheap stuff tastes just as good in this case.
