Work "party" at my home

Hello,
I had a staff party for my division at my home. It included food/drink costs and hired waitstaff. How do I deduct this for tax purposes? Is the entire party deductible (only work people were there) and the event was work-related. Is the food/drink 50% deductible? Is the hired staff deductible?
Which portion of the tax return does it go in?
Thanks
